Follow on Google News | Discipline of Football Carries Isaac to Music SuccessThe discipline of football for one-time promising goalie for Bromley-by-Bow FC has given Isaac Chris the right tools to launch his RnB and rap career with atmospheric and romantic first single London By Night.
By: Matchbox Recordings Although his influences include P. Diddy, Jay Z, Usher, and Tinie Tempah, Isaac calls himself mainly RnB. Dizzee Heights Football’s loss has turned out to be music’s gain. Isaac trained alongside Samuel Eto of Chelsea FC at Kadji Sports Academy. Despite his lack of ideal height, Isaac showed promise as a goalkeeper for Bromley-by-Bow FC, but was over-ruled for his short stature when asked to trial for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Ultimately an injury ended his football career and Isaac realised a lifelong dream by turning to music. Classically, he also puts his losses in love down as a main trigger for his song-writing. That said, Football has taught Isaac some valuable lessons. “Being a footballer taught me the beauty of discipline and belief. Honestly, I wouldn’t have the drive to succeed in music, were it not for my experience as a footballer,” Urban Groove Simple and visual lyrics such as, “I fancy a car ride; I wanna enjoy London by night,” sum up the atmosphere of London at night, especially set to an urban groove. The French lyrics in the rap add an original touch, while bringing to mind classics such as Youssou N'Dour in “7 Seconds” with Neneh Cherry. London By Night starts with a clubby violin and a high soulful vocal, which leads to a chorus with a distinctive hook, enhanced by a rap. The song has romance at its core. Isaac says he took 6 months to come up for the idea with his sound. However this paid off when mastering engineer at Abbey Road Studios, Geoff Pesche, who has recently put finishing touches down for Gorillaz, Basement Jaxx and Dizzee Rascal, predicted London By Night to be “a hit”.
