Woven with Imani’s familiar bass lines, ‘The Way I Want You’ is sentimental in both its lyrical content and sonic style. She navigates through an intricate, flawless refined, RnB and soulful soundscape of slow-burner beatwork, textured beats and elegant melodies, allowing for her celestial harmonies to cushion her every word.

It's quite an ironic concept that everyone can relate to in some ways or more as she explores it from a nuanced viewpoint. Armed with her honeyed and sublime vocal tone, she thrills listeners with a sultry and sensual performance as the bluesy and crisp backdrop adds a subtle touch to complete the job. The production is punchy and dynamic that changes towards the end part alluding to the swirling emotions displayed by the singer as she struggles to find her centre within the uncertainty.

Speaking on the track, Imani say’s“I was dating this guy and I felt this flame between us so I wrote this song and sent it to him on his birthday. We didn't work, but such is life lol The song is still f*cking fire!”.
