Lady Bitch Ray

Reyhan Şahin (*July 3, 1980 or 1981 in Bremen, Germany), also known as Lady "Bitch" Ray, is a German-speaking rapper and radio host of Turkish ethnicity. She studied linguistics and German Studies at the University of Bremen, where she earned a Master's degree with distinction. Her diploma thesis, which investigated "Youth Language in Hip Hop Culture" has been published in an anthology with the German publisher Brockmeyer-Universitätsverlag. Şahin gained her first experience with public broadcasting with Funkhaus Europa, a station co-produced by two well-renowned public broadcasting companies, Westdeutscher Rundfunk and Radio Bremen. She joined the station as a part-timer and freelancer in 2002, but was sacked in May 2006, because the lyrics of her hip hop songs (published via MySpace) were considered to transport adult content.
