Unc Imo

Independent It all started with a viral YouTube video that spiraled itself into more than what was expected. What began as a comical display of a 60-year-old rapper by the name of Unc Imo has become something more than just a silly viral rap project. Though it is hard to tell by his debut single, "Bad Knee," Unc Imo of the New Orleans area has a message behind his music. On his six-track album, 60 Yr. Old Rapper, he displays a diverse array of track,s from a pop-like Saints' anthem named "Go Nuts," to more political songs like "The Prayer". Like the album, Unc Imo has also become pretty infl uential in his community. He is not shy on vocalizing his view on political matters and city issues. From his music to simply listening to him speak, there is a serious power in the message behind the music. The New Orleans-born rapper is out to show proof that you are never too old to follow your dreams. And while it is a fun-loving album from an artist that truly just wants to make the world smile, 60 Yr. Old Rapper, for Unc Imo, is a way to bring people together and to show everyone that anything is possible.
