Growing up, Iman also appreciated her musical family members James Brown trumpet player, Leroy Fleming and blind blues man Clarence Carter for creating the music that moved their, her God given talent has always been drawing, Iman still managed to focus more on expressing her feelings and thoughts through music.
Being born in the 80s, Iman found a lot of comfort in music presented by Peter Gabriel, Madonna, David Lee Roth, Paula Abdul, Talking Heads, Whitney Houston, and The Cars. Because of whom she admired in the music business at the time, Iman was teased horribly. Iman soon after got a taste of Biz Markie, A Tribe Called Quest, Leaders of a New School, Kid N Play, and Mc Lyte, which are all Hip-Hop trendsetters. Then later, she was introduced to Ray Charles, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, Teddy Pendergrass, Roy Ayers, Patti Labelle, Babyface, Ella Fitzgerald, and Louis Armstrong, Omar, Common Sense, Jaydee (Jdilla), Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, D'Angelo.

Iman gives thanks to God for allowing her to be who she is and still produce great music. She also has her mentor Lauryn Hill who she looks up to because of her personality and her artistry. As a well-rounded artist with no commercial image to back up, Iman Williams is sure to give you what you need and not what you want. Today, the music world is fluctuated with sing-a-long pop hits that last no longer than your average bread left on the kitchen counter for days. Iman is willing to subside that situation to give you real stories and real situations from a real down-to-earth human being who is not afraid to express who she is. So do not expect gimmicks, strings attached, or fly-by-night songs. Instead, expect beautiful, melodic, soulful, hip hop oriented, jazzy, bluesy sounds with food for thought lyrics. Since she has God on her side and a few good friends and family, Iman Williams may well be on her way to a great start
