Emani talked about her love for music when she sat down for an interview with Voyage LA in 2018.

"I love making music and with my music, I write about things I go through and things I feel. I want to show people that and I want them to feel from it as well," she said. "I want to inspire my listeners in ways they’ve never felt before. I want to show people how I see things — how I hear them. I put my passion in my writing and my music and it’s all important to me, from every beat down to every last hum."

She also spoke about the struggles she faced along the way, including the challenge of finding herself.

"I got lost in love and allowed myself to lose sight of me, but with the things I’ve gone through, I found out so much about myself and the life I have around me," the artist said. "It’s changed me and I’m grateful for it every day. I use that time period to help me help others and it’s inspired a lot of my art."

According to The New York Post, the family hasn't confirmed the cause of death. Emani, whose real name is Emani Johnson, amassed 145,000 followers on Instagram while her popularity skyrocketed in only the past few years.
