During the late '90s, pop vocalist Sasha (aka Sasha Alexander) became one of Germany's biggest pop stars. After his initial introduction singing backup on hits for Young Deenay, Sasha's 1998 debut single, "I'm Still Waitin'," made him the ultimate pinup; the single went Top 20. His first album, Dedicated To..., went platinum, selling 750,000 copies in Germany alone, and bowed in at number three on the German charts. His sophomore effort, You, entered the charts at number two, and success was practically unstoppable. After much time spent winning over the European public, Sasha aimed to break America. Under the name Sasha Alexander, he issued Dedicated To..., a collection featuring his best cuts from his previous European releases, on Reprise in 2001.
