Isaac: Let's talk about what you feel you will bring to the music industry?

Isaac: What can fans expect from you in the next five years?
Dorian: A full length self titled album, big shows, videos, great music, and great exposure.
Isaac: Time for some shout outs to your family, friends, and fans…

Isaac: Final words…
