Booty rocking. Show stopping.

Thunderheist was formed by mistake. The two members meet after the DJ (G Zilla)accidentally sent the singer (Isis) a track he was working on. She liked it so much that she wrote a rap for it. Isis is Nigerian born and has done giggs with Dead Prez, T.I. and many other hip-hop artists. G Zilla has DJed with and for Prodigy, The Herbaliser, The X-Ecutioners, Kid Koala, DJ Food, DJ Vadim, Jurassic 5, Chromeo and Flosstradamus.

The "About Us" page on the bands website describes them best
"Stealing thunder so you move that ass, the duo dubbed Thunderheist unleash serious electro-pop with heavy boom bap party funk. Ribcage rattling bass breaks laced with proper rhyming are flipped with digital booty bass, 80s- inspired electronic pop, and slowed down Southern bounce, all fresh dipped in serious swagger."
