Isah
Sleek, neon-lit R&B that feels like a cold night in a warm car. Melodic Norwegian vocals wrapped in liquid synths and trap-adjacent rhythms.

Isah (Kaleb Isaac Ghebreiesus) is a central figure in the contemporary Norwegian music scene, bridging the gap between underground hip-hop and mainstream R&B. Emerging prominently through his collaboration with Karpe on the 'SAS PLUS / SAS PUSSY' project, he quickly established a solo identity defined by high-production standards and melodic sophistication.
His sound is deeply influenced by the global 'PBR&B' movement but is localized through Norwegian lyrics and a specific atmospheric chilliness. Critically, he is recognized for his technical vocal ability and his role in elevating the 'urban' genre in Norway, evidenced by multiple Spellemannprisen (Norwegian Grammys). His work often incorporates elements of Zouk and Afrobeats, reflecting a diverse cultural palette that remains anchored in a sleek, Nordic aesthetic. He represents a generation of Norwegian artists who are unapologetically pop-leaning while maintaining the street credibility of the rap scenes they emerged from.
