1) Eshraque Mughal, stylised iSHi, is a Swedish record producer responsible for Tinie Tempah's UK chart-topper "Written in the Stars" and Professor Green & Emeli SandƩ's chart-topper "Read All About It". iSHi's other production credits include Pusha T, Tinchy Stryder, Example, Devlin, Wretch 32 and Lupe Fiasco.
2) Folktronic band from Dallas, TX
Ishi is a high energy electronic band with influences of Soul, Funk, & Folk to Electro, Techno & House. They thrive on creating a positive atmosphere that encourages their audience to be themselves & let loose.
Ishi was born as an experiment between friends. JT Mudd & Brad Dale set out to create a sound that would help redefine the pop sensibility of modern day music. Their vision was to blend the classic, soulful story-telling and organic instrumentation of traditional folk music, with the infinite sonic possibilities offered through electronic production. Experimentation quickly evolved into a journey of sound that ultimately lead to the songs on Ishiās debut, 'Through the Trees', released May of 2010 & their latest album 'Digital Wounds' released April of 2013.
Ishiās ability to successfully walk the line between an ambitious studio act and a multi-sensory live experience allows them to engage their audiences in an uplifting celebration of life. High-energy dance floors combined with the subtle undertones of inner-exploration combine to create a concert experience that is unequivocally one-of-a-kind. Each night, Ishi intends to create an entirely unique environment of mysticism, awareness, and love. Adored by fans and critics alike, there is no denying that Ishi is an immersive experience that everyone should discover.
On Digital Wounds (release date 4/9/13) the band collaborated for a second time with acclaimed artist James Marsh, who designed all the album art for experimental UK band Talk Talk. The new record was spawned out of their deep love for John Lennon & Michael Jackson. The band was able to mix down their record on a console that Michael Jackson owned & used for the record 'Bad'. The live elements consist of Rocky Ottley & Jonathan Merla. Rocky Ottley, a UNT graduate, plays guitar & sings live. He's a gifted multi- instrumentalist that brings all facets of the musical wheel to the team. Jonathan Merla, a Berkley graduate, play drums live and hand percussion on the new record.
October, 12th of 2012 Ishi experienced a dream come true by opening for the lengendary New Wave band New Order. They've been listed as one of the top 5 artists in North Texas of 2012 by Pegasus News. In 2010 the band won āBest New Actā & āBest Electronic/Dance Actā & in 2011 āBest Electronic/Dance Actā by the Dallas Observer.
Today, Ishi continues to tour the country in support of their soon-to-be-released sophomore album, āDigital Woundsā. They have appeared at major festivals such as SXSW, Meltdown Music Festival, Wicker Park Festival, and Halfway to Forecastle; and they continue to share the stage with some of the most widely known and respected Indie and Dance acts on the touring circuit including: Snoop Dogg, New Order, Of Montreal, SBTRKT, Phoenix, Chromeo, Bright Light Social Hour, Pretty Lights, Big Boi, Neon Indian, AM & Shawn Lee, Friendly Fires, Toro y Moi, & Twin Shadow.

Push It
Ishi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Harbor no room for the weak, nor the timid
Bit too long, you got accustomed to the gimmicks
It's like they don't care that the real is at the finish
No blemish, no honor
Let the flutes go, the snake charmer
The kingpin of every street corner
You can't say I never didn't warn ya, yuugh
Rockin' with the motherfuckin' greatest, I push it
I push it
I've been pushin', yes, I've been cookin'
Road trips, them risks, they've been tooken
Been ballin', hoes, they been lookin'
I first class your flights, I've been bookin'
One in Bed-Stuy, she's so Brooklyn
I can't dodge her, she's so Crooklyn
They let the crooks in, we let the guns blow
All you see is bright lights through the gun smoke
Rockin' with the motherfuckin' greatest, I push it
I push it
The song "Push It" by Ishi, featuring Pusha T, talks about pushing oneself to the limit, taking risks, and not giving up easily. The first four lines of the verse convey a competitive spirit that is required to succeed. Pusha T is urging listeners to push themselves harder to achieve their goals, even if it means taking risks and being unconventional.
The next two lines talk about how the industry today is composed of gimmicks and lacks real talent. The last four lines of the verse express Pusha T's street credibility, as he boasts about being the kingpin of every street corner. He warns of the consequences of crossing him.
The chorus "Rockin' with the motherf*ckin' greatest, I push it" reiterates that he is the best at what he does and will never stop pushing his boundaries. He has been cooking, taking risks, balling, and booking first-class flights, which highlights his tremendous success. The verse concludes with Pusha's vivid description of a girl from Brooklyn, who he can't resist, and a reference to the violence on the streets.
In summary, the song is an anthem that inspires listeners to strive for greatness, push beyond their limits, and never give up easily.
