Ishi's love for performing blossomed at the tender age of 14. Singing at performances in school was his first step, and he moved on to dancing after he left college. Singing at performances like "A Nation's Countdown 2003", at The Ark Music Cafe for two years and recording stints with Ocean Butterfly Music had brought his love for performing to another level.
His interest for Hip Hop was first spurred on by J-pop artists like Namie Amuro and Speed. After dancing and attending classes almost everyday, he was further inspired by artists such as Usher, Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake and more recently, Omarion.
He loves experimenting with different styles of hip hop, from old school styles such as locking and popping, to new school styles such as shaking and krumping. Favourite styles include milking and R&B styles which involve total control of the body.
Always looking to improve himself, he updates himself with the latest music videos and any workshops conducted by overseas instructors.
Recently, he has branched into acting and had appeared in TV commercials such as "Ice Cool", "Singapore Idol" trailer and in the recent Channel 8 drama, "The Rainbow Connection". Besides, his performance portfolio has been elevated to yet another level as Ishi participates in the recent Channel U's Superband, together with his group of band mates who call themselves SOUL.
