Not many artists grab your attention in the first few seconds of the single, like the way Imani Wj Wright does! The American singer/songwriter converts his music into captivating compositions that take listeners to another world suddenly, not knowing what the adventure will lead to. The situation is no different with his new eccentric single “So I Thought” which shows off his songwriting skills being an emotional and lyrical masterpiece.
“So I Thought” features a vibrant melody, and an overall structure that feels thrilling, volatile, even theatrical as it advances, and the track is swift to leave its mark. The latter half even sees things lean notably towards a more Cautious Clay world-music kind of aura.
Imani Wj Wright’s sound paired with his velvety vocals and smooth lyrical flow placed him neatly in the genre of memorable ‘blue-eyed soul’ entertainers like Jon B, Robin Thicke and Sam Harris. Imani Wj Wright has started to achieve the acclaim that many artists dream of with well over 3 years of his musical journey.
This single introduces us to Imani Wj Wright as an artist with a clear connection to music who clearly knows what works in both Soul and RnB worlds.
