The two met in 1994 in JKS basketball club in Bredäng, Sweden. Their initial songs were included in a 2000 compilation album Den svenska underjorden (meaning the Swedish underground), after Fille's younger brother Sabo, a hip hop artist in his own right met The Latin Kings (TLK), a successful Swedish hip hop groups with roots in Venezuela and Chile.

This was followed by appearances in another television series, Lilla Al-Fadji & Co broadcast on Kanal 5 and in comedy series Sverige dansar och ler.
Ison and Fille has toured Sweden extensively since the early 2000s.
