ISAAC - STYLE AND MUSIC INTERVIEW



It's that time again Style & Music interview Monday's. This time we have an interview with up and coming artist ISAAC. ISAAC recently dropped off his Wild Cherry Nightmares visual. Check out the interview inside where we talk trends, favorite brands and musical influences.


Fashion



We all go through different phases when it comes to style. What are some of your most memorable?



It's true lol we do all go through different phases of style, if I were to pick some of the most memorable, I would say the circa '01 style (middle school) where I rocked clean Phat Farm, Sean John & FUBU. This era brings me back to when baggy, raw denim, but extremely detailed clothes were in. Like most middle class families we shopped at TJ Maxx but it was still cool to feel like a rapper lol. I'd also say a memorable phase was the hxc look. I'd rock all black tees, black jeans, wallets chains and a clean black sox fitted cap to solidify some style to the outfit. Right now you might catch me in some Browning hoodies, durable flannels, or some custom 3B gear.
When it comes to personal style do you switch it up daily or reinvent every so often?



I'm an artist who switches up styles daily. I might be influenced by the music I'm listening to at that time or a certain show/movie I'm into, for example I might get on you-tube and bump some Jay-Z and want to throw on some Timbs or I might have just watched a biker documentary and want to throw on the skull rings and rock all black.


Who and what has influenced your personal style over the years?



Throughout the years I've been influenced by a number of people with cool styles, some mentions would be Yeezy, Jay-Z, Big Sean, The Robertsons (Duck Dynasty), Kid Cudi (BBC, Ice Cream) Nelly (jerseys) and even Daddy Yankee.



What are some of the brands your rocking with at the moment?



Brands I'm currently rocking with: Carhartt, Browning, Real Tree, Jordan, Nike AF-1, custom 3B gear, Not Another Rich Kidd clothing, Ice Cream, Next Level (plain tees but I'm mad picky about blank tees fabric and feel-wise lol), New Era fitteds (White Sox, Blackhawks), I dig that En Noir shit but my pockets ain't that deep
If it  were 2006 what would you be wearing ?


If it were 2006 I'd be rocking mad G-Unit!

Music

How long ago did you start rapping and how?


I've been writing rhymes since about 12 or so. I first started rapping by rapping lyric for lyric DMX's "Stop Being Greedy" for my dads friends while they'd be hanging/drinking when I got the reaction I got, it influenced me to want to write my own stuff, in no time full-fledged cyphers were being performed on my porch in Elgin, IL after school, ha.



What do you want your listeners to get out of your music?


What I'd like for my listeners to get from my music is release. Release from stress at work, release from haters and dream stompers, release from the worlds negativities. I have my own story to tell and I feel a lot of people can and do relate. I want people to feel like they are supporting someone with strong, quality music.


What artist have had the biggest influence on you when it comes to music ?


Some of the artists who have had the biggest influences on me and my sound would be early Kanye, early Big Sean, DMX, Eminem, System of a Down, Bone Thugs, earlier Wayne, WestSide Connection, Xzibit, Nas, Metallica, AC/DC to name a few.


As far as the music goes what can we look forward to from Isaac in the future ?


You can look forward to my music getting better and better. I'm extremely focused on creating more and more solid projects. Better features, more music from my 3B camp, bigger and better shows, more merch, and actually creating a "show" experience rather than an open-mic esqe feel. We want you to feel proud you've invested your time and energy into what we have to offer.


Thanks for the interview. Major S/O to Fashion Addicts!
