| Empire ISIS - MISSION Countdown to Empire ISIS new music video out OCTOBER 17TH Nominated 11 times in 2008 for awards such as BEST INTERNATIONAL ARTIST & BEST NEW POP ARTIST, this North-African beauty defies all preconceived ideas of your typical Urban artist. Empire ISIS aka Empress Gangstress brings a new meaning to word "World Music" by breaking down the musical barriers and fusing Hiphop, Dancehall into a pop format on her new LP "Sound the Trumpets". Ranked number 7 on the top 10 unsigned artists in the world by "The frost report", ISIS has stayed true to her roots and movement while gaining international recognition without the help of Major labels.Her first studio effort, “Sound the Trumpets”, was recorded between Montreal, New York, Tel Aviv and Kingston. The album was produced by Prayon, and Overstand at studio such as Tuff Gong, Penthouse, & King Of Kings in Jamaica. ISIS has painstakingly developed her sound and image while maintaining ownership of all her songs under her brothers record label Monumental Records distributed by Universal Music Group. Half British half Moroccan but raised by a Ugandan stepfather who adopted her - Empire ISIS, grew up in different places such as: Canada, the UK and Morocco. At the age 16, ISIS set off for South and Central America, bicycling through 7 countries from Panama to Mexico. Her adventures in Latin America ignited the spark that would forever change her. However, it was only until she went to the rolling hills of Jamaica that she truly found herself. While filming a documentary about the BoBo Shanti (an isolated group of strict Rastafarians) in the hills of Jamaica that gave birth to conscious dancehall pioneer, (Sizzla) ISIS realized being on stage and singing was her calling. It was on this trip that ISIS first encountered foundation artists such as Chinna Smith and Dean Frazer who schooled her on the history and making of reggae music. ISIS put aside her camera, and picked up the mic. She set out on her most challenging journey: making conscious urban music for the masses. In sum, Empire ISIS brings a militant, passionate, and high energy type of reggae music which can be appreciated by all. From her unique look to her blazing lyrics, ISIS is a true provocateur challenging peoples perceptions, stereotypes and common modes of thinking. Ultimately, ISIS says, "I want to inspire people to follow their dreams, to do what they're here on earth for". Profile by Awan Jones ..Empire ISIS Awards: 1.
