Aima was born in Chicago and spent most of her developing years in Maui, Hawaii.From the time she was 13,
Aima honed her microphone skills from being a singular young woman amongst the male-dominated world of Hip Hop.
It was never an easy struggle. Aima chose not to identify with false positions and negative role assigned to women
in Hip Hop. She refused to embrace ignorant notions of misogyny and rising attitudes of violence toward women.
She began performing in theater groups, spoken word open mics, local Hip Hop cyphers which lead to her wide
genre of lyrical skills including spoken word, emcee, freestyle, and improv. Within her content is clearly articulated
styling, tangible yet fluid subtext, all backed by themes that are at once theraputic while projecting inspiration that
soothe the heart and satisfies the soul. Aima has played on the same stages with such artisit as J Boogie,
Lady Bug Mecca, Zion I, Jen Ro, Aya de Leon, DJ Vadim just to name a few. Aima fits right into the evolution of Hip
Hop by re-definig the delivery and the sound. As she takes posession of the stage and the microphone with a cool
fluid grace. Aima is versatile blending social, political, and emotional topics with all types of music from Hip Hop,
trip hop, dance hall to drum & bass, electro, and house. Her upcoming projects include the release of the Mamaz
album " The Birth". Mamaz include Aima and Persia in a dynamic tag team duo bringing that feminine medicine to Hip Hop.JUNE 1st.: CHECK ME OUT....VENUS RUNNING TINGS!
