Influences

Kimanimusik primarily works within Afro-Hip-Hop and Afro-beat genres. These styles often draw from foundational hip-hop elements—boom-bap rhythms, rap flows, sampling, and lyricism. Early pioneers such as Run-DMC, Public Enemy, A Tribe Called Quest, and Nas helped shape the global foundation of modern rap—so it’s quite possible those styles have had an indirect influence.
Afro-beat as a genre blends West African polyrhythms with jazz, funk, and soul. Artists like Fela Kuti, King Sunny Adé, or modern contemporaries like Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Mr Eazi have heavily influenced this space. Although not confirmed, such tracks may resonate with artists in that Afro-beat sound sphere
