Káss (Kassra Mobini ; born December 6, 1987 ) is an Iranian singer and music Producer. Kassra better known by his stage name "Káss" is a self taught producer, singer, songwriter. Born in Tehran, Iran on December 6, 1987, second son of three to Persian parents. Káss moved to Toronto as a child and spent the rest of his life in the Six, where he met his high school sweetheart back in 2006 and is now married and a proud father of two boys. Káss features his wife, Natalie "Baby Nat" on many of his tracks and they pride their ability to work together on their mutual passion for music, while juggling work and parenthood. During his early career, he was recognized by the stage name K.C Mafia, where he focused his style of song writing in the rap and hip-hop genre, which developed further into mainstream pop as he rebranded as Káss. Coming from an academically advanced family, Káss was always directed to gear towards his education, thus leading him to complete a Masters degree in Pharmacy and practicing as a Pharmacist for over 5 years. Despite his success as a Pharmacist, Káss' passion towards music has driven him to many late night sessions at the studio, leaving him feeling with emptiness unless he followed and fulfilled his lifelong passion for music. He lives his life by the slogan "we only get to live one life" thus believes life is too short not to pursue your dreams and your passion. Thus in 2020, in the midst of the pandemic, Káss decided to leave a six figure job to take his music career to the next level.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
