Issa's mixed style of R&b and Neo-Soul is perhaps a compliment to his performances. His vocal range is unique in the sense that he virtually transforms his soft soprano into a raspy baritone that is reminiscent of the late Luther Vandross. The draw-back is that his vocal inflections are too "Luther" in contrast for some.

"I never knew I had that voice until Luther came along", he said. "Its my voice, my gift". Issa makes a pretty compelling argument. " When you think about the artist who emerged during the Sam Cook
period like Ernie Isley of the Isley Brother's, Bobby Womack, or Donny Hathaway to name a few, you can't tell me that they didn't vibe off of each other, their styles changed over time".

Issa stay's true to his roots coming from old-school influences. His maturity is profound and emotionally heart-felt. He writes about human passions, life experiences, and spiritual devotion keeping it real and contemporary. He has a message that appeals to everyone, young and mature.
