Reyhan Şahin reflekterar över resan från rappare till professor

Reyhan Şahin, känd som Lady Bitch Ray, har i en podcast berättat om sin förvandling från provokativ rappare till den akademiska världen. Den 45-åriga Şahin undervisar nu som gästprofessor vid Berlins konstuniversitet. Hon talade öppet om depression och de fientligheter hon mötte efter sitt genombrott i mitten av 2000-talet.

För ungefär tjugo år sedan blev Şahin känd för sina explicita låtar som Hengzt, Arzt, Orgi. Hon förlorade sin anställning på Radio Bremen och drog sig tillbaka från offentligheten 2008 efter att hennes föräldrahem utsatts för attacker. Därefter följde slutenvård för depression. I podcasten G Spot med Stefanie Giesinger förklarade Şahin hur hon använde sin doktorsexamen som ett sätt att skapa stabilitet. ”Jag doktorerade av nödvändighet”, sade hon. Idag forskar hon om genus, islam och populärkultur och publicerar böcker. När hon ser tillbaka betraktar Şahin sin väg som oväntad men positiv. Hon undervisar studenter och konstaterar att hennes liv inte följde den ursprungliga drömmen om att bli musiker.
