The Music industry is fairly a simple and straight-forward game, Be Original, Be unique. With a billion other chances to follow the band wagon of self-proclaimed artists who thrive on remixes or re-purposing already produced music, Shayan Ess took the hard way out and ended up being the best!
Shayan Ess with his exquisite passion for music is a trap-soul artist, song writer and composer in the Persian genre. With a small yet an enlightening conversation with Shayan, one thing was clear, this man lives and breathes music and focuses on only one aspect, being unique with his creations.
Introducing a new genre of music in Persia:
Every genre of music introduced in Persia has always been accepted for its originality. With an audience who are more culturally aware of the music that they listen to, Shayan was successful in introducing a new genre of music to the country and the success of his third single “Taa Soobh” proves it.
The single has got an ardent following on all streaming platforms and with it getting listed on the biggest playlist in the Iranian Music Industry, the genre got widely accepted in Persia. With more to come from the artist in the coming days, things are just getting started.

When asked about the obstacles faced, Shayan says that dealing with haters becomes a part of the job. He says that no matter how many decades of hard work you put into a piece of music, there is always going to be a group that is going to hate it.
