Ishani - Powertripp (Official Video)

Ishani is a super intriguing artist on the R&B (and R&B adjacent) music scene because she uses her music to engage listeners with important topics, like mental health and violence against women.

By combining trip-hop, R&B and indie-pop, Ishani creates an alluring sound that is bound to draw anyone in. Her new single 'Powertripp' is a lengthy 4:10 minute track that is a true representation of her creative ability with a sound that will resonate with a large audience of R&B lovers while also connecting with an audience outside of the genre.

The subject of 'Powertripp' is that of unbalanced power dynamics in toxic relationships, like Ishani says, “This is a song about self-love and how you can overcome being in a toxic relationship where negative patterns repeat. You have to come to a point where you let go of the rope of that power struggle and choose yourself over the endless loops. Take off your mask and veil and walk away.” With a catchy flow, a luscious sound and a heartfelt meaning, this is a powerful track that conveys the shadier side of relationships and will be relatable to so many. Ishani also shows this storyline through the music video, which was directed and executive produced by Yolanda Barker, with video DOP and executive producer Beatriz Delgado Mena, and alongside an all-women base crew.
