Imaj started his journey with music performing in the vocal and keyboard duo 2Gifted. While the group had a nice mellow sound, there was a need for more. This is where Imaj began producing and arranging. Imaj was the keyboardist for the (now dissolved) dynamic, 4-piece band The Undertone. He is part of the genius production duo Brothers Clem. And Non-Performing, a forceful and innovative composing project that has written the soundtracks for several short films.
It took a while, but in 2008 Imaj finally decided that he wanted to do a solo album, The ‘I’. “I like to call it “Dif-Hop”, Imaj says. The ‘I’ would be the first time where his words as well as his music could be heard together. Imaj says, “Not everyone can understand emotions through music alone so sometimes you just have to speak English, you know?”
2010 brought a new album to Imaj fans; Tomorrow. On this album Imaj would express his way of thinking on the idea of ‘tomorrow’. “Does it ever come? Maybe. But if not shouldn’t we all seize the day?” he says. Hopefully for their sake, the world listens.
In 2012 Imaj has returned to his instrumental roots. His latest work, Exhale Vol. 1, is a full-length album specifically crafted for relaxation and massage therapy. “This always has been my favorite type of music!” Imaj says. The calming sounds of the piano coupled with natural and atmospheric elements make this album perfect for anyone just ready to wind down.
The journey continues…
