RHYMI Releases 30-Track Double Album "The Book of Imar," Featuring Artist Who Exists in Story

PHOENIX - EntSun -- PHOENIX, AZ — August 16, 2026 — Republik Records announces that "The Book of Imar," the new 30-track double album from Phoenix hip-hop artist RHYMI, is now available on all major streaming platforms, released Friday, August 14, 2026.

"The Book of Imar" is built as a single continuous story told in two halves. Disc one follows Rami — the man behind RHYMI — through a life that ends at a gas station at 44th Street and McDowell in Phoenix, closing the loop with the track "I.M.A.R." Disc two is the tape he left behind: the flex records, the money, the late nights, and the reckoning, opening with "Clock Out" and closing with "Read Between the Lines."

Threaded through the album is Imar — a voice on voicemails, a name in the credits, a featured artist whose page was born the day the album dropped. Who is leaving the voicemails is the question the album asks the listener to answer, and the reason track one, "The Secret of the Yod Part 2," rewards a second front-to-back listen.

"This isn't 30 songs — it's one book," says RHYMI. "Track one gives you the answer before you can understand it. By the last track, you'll want to start over and hear it right."

The release follows RHYMI's "GEMINI" era and arrives as the Arizona artist's most ambitious project to date: a two-year build, sequenced like a novel, from an independent label run out of Phoenix.
