Raven Keiara has been doing her thing in entertainment for a little more than twelve years now and she doesn’t seem to be slowing down. The multihyphenate is winning over new audiences in one of the industry’s best videos out now. The 17-year-old is currently playing the role of love interest to Issac Ryan Brown in his newly released “Show Me” music video.
The video will further establish Issac Ryan Brown as the multifaceted Emmy-nominated artist that audiences have come to know. For her part, the award-winning Raven Keiara’s admiration is well earned and her unabashed style has her earning fans that had not been previously introduced (It doesn’t hurt that she’s also easy on the eyes.)
“Show Me” is off of Brown’s latest EP, “My Eye’s Only.” His latest album is letting everyone know that he’s back – not that he went anywhere. Many of Brown’s fans will remember him from the hit series Raven’s Home which aired on Disney for six seasons. Thinking back over his track record, he has had tremendous success.
Issac Ryan Brown has been something great for a long time now. And as we all know, he can sing and dance, so nothing has changed on that front. But, it is fair to say that Brown made the successful transition from childhood star into today.
The latest project from Brown is different from what fans might remember of him as the teenager has grown up. Never missing a beat, the audience has fallen in love with Brown’s singing and dancing all over again, and Raven Keiara, who is a phenomenal dancer in her own right.
The song is a fun song that puts you in a party mood. The critics have spoken and the song has won rave reviews. It’s a stand-out track on this release. Many artists don’t like to be categorized but Issac Ryan Brown is hard to categorize because of his many talents. The singer, songwriter, producer, actor and humanitarian will be around a long time.
With the positive reviews that keep pouring in, and a style that is completely different from anything we’ve heard from him before, it has set the stage for us to want more from him. The music has the ability to instantaneously make you repeat the chorus. It’s one of those songs you can put on repeat.
As far as the video is concerned, Raven Keiara adds that special touch helping generate press for the visually stimulating shoot. This is not Raven Keiara’s first foray into music video territory; as such, the talented teen has been featured in other high profile videos and worked with Stevie Wonder, Lil’ Fizz (of B2K), Lalah Hathawy, Brian McKnight and Take 6.
Returning to her roots of dancing, it’s as though this role was created for her. Raven Keiara has been exposed to various genres of music but seems at ease in this R&B mix coupled with pop flare, which is showcased in the sound for this track.

Everybody showed me so much love. It was unbelievable. We had a great time.
With this project, Raven Keiara is holding her own on screen and off screen busy juggling all of her talents. In the meantime, Brown has exposed his many layers and demonstrates to the audience how he is on the brink of becoming one of the biggest actors in Hollywood.
Brown has that always identifiable youthful appeal as a child star appearing on America’s Got Talent at six years old which catapulted him to the star that we know of today. But Raven Keiara also has bragging rights because she started acting in Disney productions at five years old, resulting in countless features for the global powerhouse ranging from Disney Destinations, Waltt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Aulani and on the Disney Channel. She has also appeared on television, in films, commercials, and produced documentaries.
The pair previously acted together in musical theater for an Amazing Grace Conservatory production in Los Angeles directed by Wendy Raquel Robinson.
For their latest match up, the talented duo manage to shake it up a bit with unpredictable expressions and dance moves, an appealing attribute for various reasons. Brown cast Raven Keiara in his project because he knew she would wow the audience. And she sure has!
