Imani-J - Platinum Status (Vinyl)
Platinum Status is the bold, unapologetic sophomore EP from Haitian-New Zealand artist Imani-J that celebrates identity, self-belief and the pursuit of success on her own terms. Blending Afrobeats with a distinctive, genre-fluid edge, the EP marks a new chapter in her evolution, pairing fearless storytelling with a sound that’s entirely her own. Led by standout single “FLY”, a defiant response to the doubters, Platinum Status is a statement of ambition, resilience and cultural pride.
From the confidence of “FLY” to the deeply personal “emily”, a tribute to her mother, Imani-J channels her Haitian heritage and lived experience into a project rooted in growth, gratitude and the belief that her future is hers to create. Written across Aotearoa, London and Los Angeles, collaboration for Platinum Status crossed oceans and captures an artist finding her direction, trusting her creativity and stepping confidently into her next era.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
