MSQ PROFILE: IVANI





Bold voices reside everywhere in Richmond, Virginia, including Ivani's. She keeps her sound tailored to her daily emotions and endeavors. Whether it's a simple harmonization or a flow that can't be stopped, Ivani brings the energy needed.


When she started making music seriously, the name Ivani just came along. She really just needed a name that matched the face and it did the job perfectly.


It’s has an actual meaning, “gift of god” which is pretty dope. I’m not super religious but I do believe in higher powers and the gods so whoever sent me that name it fits me and shoutout to them. - Ivani

Ivani has been making music for about 2 years. There were a few tracks made back in elementary school when she used to go by the name of "Lil E". At the start of 2020, Ivani became aware of her love for making music. After that, she began to lock in on it.


It's truly my therapy. - Ivani




When it comes to influences, for Ivani, it's nothing too specific. She feels most inspired by life in general. Making what she can out of her emotions also helps.


If I have to pick one emotion that influences me I would say the fire of hurt. - Ivani
