I receive a lot of e-mails asking me to check out an artist’s music, but this one hit differently. When I heard Jada Imani, the 21-year-old mini Erykah out of the Bay Area, I knew that I had to write about her. Her voice has the perfect amount of rasp and control to take you away and make you feel like you’re floating on clouds. She released her debut solo album, Ring Ring! on September 25th, 2020, which she used to show her growth and journey during the quarantine. However, that wasn’t the last of her. From there, she’s gone on to release Saline, a 3-song EP that’s a part of a much bigger project, showing her ability to release a fairly expanded catalog at an impressive age.
