ISIS SALAM
A VOICE FOR EMPOWERMENT AND DIVERSITY
Isis Salam’s natural habitat: the spotlight. Besides her many musical talents, the rapper, singer,
songwriter, producer, dj and entertainer is known for bringing boundless amounts of energy on
stage and respected by her fans and peers for her integrity and versatility. The Nigerian-born,
Toronto-raised, Berlin-based and New York- and London-schooled artist’s underground appeal
has been building since her debut in the scene in 2008.
​
Kicking off her career as an integral part of the acclaimed Electro-Rap duo THUNDERHEIST, Isis
brought a singular and radical sound to the electronic music scene, resulting in breakthrough-
performances and a number of artist collaborations including legends such as Tyree Cooper,
Junky XL, Noreaga, Pharell, Sub-ann and LeftWing & Kody. Her soulful, take-no-prisoners vocal
performances set THUNDERHEIST’s tracks apart from many of the cookie cutter dance acts
flirting with electronic sound and brought the duo to sold out shows around the globe. A solo
career was imminent and after her sophomore release “Let Go” with deep house label Exploited
Records featuring German Duo Kruse & Nuernberg, ISIS SALAM continued exciting the crowds
at some of Europe's top music festivals such as MELT, SONAR, ADE and BREAD & BUTTER.
However, the next chapter of Salam’s career has put her in the pilot seat as she has self-
produced, mixed and engineered a number of new tracks off her forthcoming, highly-anticipated
EP, (4U) (MYDEAR ) (IN LUE OF FLOWERS). and Having found her way into the heart of the
Berlin underground, Isis made her claim on its infamous techno scene.
Her live set is a pure on-stage evolution: opening with deep-breathing, bass- heavy house; it morphs into sexified nu-disco before growing into a full-blown dance party, driven to create the perfect environment for lovers of the classics and the eccentric. The multi-hyphenate’s talents have not gone unnoticed by iconic
names in the music industry as her artful prowess has allowed her to share the stage with bold
faced names such Kanye West, Solange and Peaches, artists who represent Salam’s incredible range and reach.
Her drive and motivation grew into her manifesto.
The message ISIS SALAM is
putting out there, implemented in every piece of her work: “Everything I do - I do it for the love.”
And the love keeps on growing - Isis now returns to the spotlight, yet again proving her vocal skills
as well as her playful side and a desire for her message to have an impact.
