May 24, 2010 - PRLog -- Sean Forbes started a career in music by producing high-quality sign-language remakes of hit music videos. His production included videos by Eminem and Christina Aguilera. This were big productions and it heled open pop music culture to the deaf or hard of hearing. He did this through is non-profit organization called Deaf Professional Arts Network or D-Pan.

He didn’t expect to get national recognition for his efforts. The greater benefit for him, though, is seeing all those people who are hearing impaired to be involved in the making of a music video and see everyone who watches it enjoy the material.

His greatest achievement, to date is something he never expected – a major music deal. Aside from doing all these production, Sean is actually a rapper and song writer. Web Entertainment, the same label that helped Eminem break through the music industry, just signed him. This is now considered the biggest breakthrough for the deaf community all over the world. He is also now a part of Broadcast Music, Inc. or BMI. This is an association for composers to protect and promote their interest. Even The Beatles is a part of BMI. This will assure Forbes of royalties for the use of his music.

He just released his first video titled I’m Deaf. In the video, he is rapping and also signing. The song is now available on vinyl and on iTunes.

Forbes is running high with this development on his career. He is fully aware of the doors sizes of the doors that are opening because if his success. Forbes is expected to sign a lot of deals with different providers of hearing aids. More than this, he is becoming a living testament of how people can overcome their own inadequacies. He has been 90% deaf since infancy and has worn a hearing since he was a kid.
