Ra’uf Iminov, best known as Iminoff was born in the former Soviet Republic of Tajikistan. He was raised in a single parent household - challenging yet an experience he would not trade. He believes that seeing his mother persevere and sacrifice to provide made a huge impact to what he is today – someone who will fight for the things he loves and will always get up and try again.

December 1996 became a new chapter of his life when he moved to the USA, Brooklyn is a city he calls home. His first steps into the music scene were taken in Columbus, Ohio. Iminoff recorded his first single and music video “Soldiers on da Grind” which is actually a metaphor to his business approach – always working hard and making the most out of life. His music has an irrefutable ability to connect with everyone – young, old, poor, rich, and all from various cultural backgrounds.
