Ian Isiah: “Princess Pouty”

By: Jack Anderson

As a genderless, flashy, hyper-sexualized fashion designer, Brooklyn’s Ian Isiah has never been your run-of-the-mill crooner. For years now Isiah’s bouncing-off-the-walls vigor in studio and onstage have made this R&B singer a standout, even within New York’s heavily saturated artist community.

Starved of the usual nightlife due to COVID restrictions, the entrepreneur is taking this reservation to step things up to the next level, with the next move coming by way of AUNTIE, a long-form collaboration with renowned producer Chromeo. It’ll come as no surprise to Chromeo fans that the resulting seven tracks slap with the same synth-funk intensity of ’80s era ZAPP, while challenging R&B mega-giants like The Weeknd with Isiah’s prominent vocals, especially on the appropriately-titled “Princess Pouty”!
