Imani’s Tracks

“The Pen is Mightier, Than the Sword, But The
Tongue is Greater than the Two put together”.  Marcus Garvey

WELCOME TO IMANI’S TRACKS PAGE

[su_spoiler title=”AN INTODUCTION TO IMANI’S TRACKS” style=”fancy” icon=”plus-square-1″]Imani cd coverHere you can listen to music tracks that feature Imani.  Some  of these tracks are accompanied by video’s.  These video’s have been created to help people see, as well as hear what Imani’s lyrics are about.  Not your normal music video, these mediavideo’s feature images and photo’s that complement what Imani is saying. Imani calls these video’s, Music Video Presentations, and they are a powerful tool to help get his message across.  Imani’s tracks are therefore a selection of both audio tracks and music video presentations. There are Seven (7) tracks featured here in this track list.  Although other tracks by Imani are featured throughout this website, see The Artist page.  Other tracks will also be added to this track list as time progresses.[/su_spoiler] [su_spoiler title=”IMANI’S WORD-SOUND TRANSLATIONS” style=”fancy” icon=”plus-square-1″]african british2Although Imani writes and performs all his lyric’s in Jamaican patios, nevertheless the words to these lyrics are presented here, through this website, in their equivalent English translations. This has been done in order to help all listeners fully appreciate exactly what Imani is saying, regardless of whether they understand patios or not.  This however can also be useful, to people who can and do, fully understand and speak Jamaican patios, who may also find these translations very humorous.[/su_spoiler] [su_spoiler title=”THE CONTEXT & CONTENT OF IMANI’S LYRICS” style=”fancy” icon=”plus-square-1″]triangleaniEducation & Entertainment = Edutainment: All of Imani’s lyrics, have a specific theme as well as an objective.  From beginning to end, Imani always try’s to tell a story, as he maintains that he always has something to say of importance, therefore, a collection of punch-lines would not be sufficient to relay the full content and context, Imani wishes his audience to understand and become aware to.  Therefore all Imani’s tracks can be considered Edutainment, as people are educated as well as entertained simultaneously[/su_spoiler] [su_spoiler title=”MUSIC INDUSTRY OPPORTUNITIES & SUPPORT” style=”fancy” icon=”plus-square-1″]mike-man2All of these 7 tracks, listed and featured in this track list,  are yet to be published formally. Therefore an opportunity exist for producers, artists & other people, operating within the global music and media industries, to work alongside Imani  on any particular track, or support him in any other way to help him achieve this.  It should be noted also that many of the instrumentals used for most of these tracks, are actually  popular dancehall rhythms, that has been used only as a guide, with no intention to release or generate income from them, but primarily to showcase Imani’s lyrics. If you are therefore a Producer or Artist and think you can create that ideal rhythm to suit any of Imani lyrics or add your own unique flavour to enhance them. Likewise if you think you can help & support Imani in anyway, to enable him to get his music to the masses.  Then please contact Imani’s management team via the contact page.[/su_spoiler]
