Jimi Cravity

Jimi Cravity is a man whose heart claims dual citizenship in heaven and on earth . His vision of heaven is relevant , his conception visceral and his longing for it infectious . For Jimi , Heaven is real . Heaven is now . And Heaven changes everything . Such is the heartbeat of his debut EP from sixsteprecords , aptly titled , Heaven . In the six songs , we hear the hard-won journey from loss to grace from an anointed worshipper and from a father who has done the unthinkable — buried his own child . When his two and a half year old son succumbed to liver cancer , Jimi knew he could either dig his own grave alongside him , or choose to keep living as God had ordained him . He made his choice and his music says it all . He is a man with two feet firmly planted in grace and a heart lifted high towards home .
