Singer Slava (Anastasia Slanevskaya) was born on May 15, 1980 in Moscow in the family of a professional driver and an economist mother. Nastya developed a craving for music as a child.
Despite her passion for sports and volleyball, as soon as “karaoke” appeared in the country, the girl immediately became a fan of this fashionable entertainment and devoted all her leisure time to learning Russian and foreign hits.
Having tried to study to be a psychologist, linguist, tourism manager, having worked as an administrator in a casino and as an interior designer, Slava realized that she could not do without music. It was at this moment that fate presented her with one of the main surprises. In the spring of 2002, at a karaoke club, where the girl sang after work, she was heard by television director Sergei Kalvarsky, known for his work with Alla Pugacheva and Philip Kirkorov. Nastya's pure and deep singing could not leave him indifferent. After waiting for the girl to finish singing, Sergei invited her to work together.
The very first joint creation of the singer and director, the video for the song "I Love and Hate", became a hit on the country's music channels, the song took first lines in the radio charts, and the video was nominated in several categories for the main Russian music award MTV RMA 2004 Thus began the ascent to the musical Olympus of one of the most promising artists on the Russian pop scene.
For two years Slava has managed to do a lot: hundreds of concerts, performances at festivals, covers of top glossy magazines, the release of her debut album "Fellow Traveler", which was released in autumn 2004.
Slava starred in the film "Paragraph 78". For the filming, the singer had to cut her gorgeous long hair to zero! The appearance of Glory in a new role of a film actress for her, undoubtedly, further increased the popularity of the singer. In a new intriguing image, Slava became the face of the covers of many glossy magazines, including XXL, LOVE, SYNC and the anniversary issue of PENTHOUSE, dedicated to the 5th anniversary of the Russian-language version of the world-famous men's magazine.
In 2006, on her birthday, the singer presented her second album, which the artist decided to release within the framework of her own production center "Slava Music".
