POWER is a language IAN ISIAH invented himself. Thanks to GOSPEL for the the introduction to his musicianship, and later on the hot and heavy backbeat of R&B, ISIAH radiates fearless sexuality, free spirited expression, and deep humility for those he idolises that came before him. These artists are deeply ingrained into the fabric of his life - whether it’s the montage of Whitney Houston in his room, or the way he pauses in conversation to harmonise Mary J Blige’s “my life, my life, my life,” ISIAH’s joy is contagious.
BIG HEART ENERGY, a flow he’s been able to really step into since the start of the pandemic, pours through him as he describes the first time he fell in love with Beyonce, through “Gift From a Virgo.”
In his own words, ISIAH reminds us that LOVE IS A VERB. In that same spirit, it’s refreshing to hear that while ISIAH’s never stops learning from his idols (JAMES BROWN, LUTHER VANDROSS, TANK) he remains as open to the new generation of music as the old.
ISIAH reignites POWER in us, leaving us with a message - “love is actionable.”Unashamedly a free-spirit, NINA talks with ARMAN about everything from her childhood favs to the importance of silence and solitude.
