IMANI-J

Haitian-New Zealand artist Imani-J has quickly established herself as one of Aotearoa's most exciting emerging voices. Blending Afrofusion and R&B, the singer, songwriter, dancer and performer creates emotionally honest music with infectious rhythms, drawing comparisons to artists such as SZA, Tyla and Doja Cat.


Imani-J has already carved out a powerful presence both locally and internationally. Her collaboration with Bam Marley, talk is cheap, debuted at number two on the Aotearoa Hot Charts and continues to perform strongly, reaching the NZ Top 40 and Top 10 Airplay Charts. Her breakout releases have earned chart success, editorial playlist support and radio airplay across New Zealand, the US, UK and Europe.


A natural performer, Imani-J's undeniable stage presence has earned her slots at major events and festivals including Jim Beam Homegrown, CupaDupa, Dunedin O-Week Toga Party, NZ on Air Emerging Artist Showcase, Victoria Vibes, and numerous others.
