RE-INTRODUCING THE EXTRAORDINARY RIMIDI
Meet RIMIDI—a liberated being creating sacred impact through sound, soul, and story. A Miami-born visionary artist, transformational educator, wellness practitioner, and community architect, she walks in truth and creates spaces that awaken healing, authenticity, and creative power in everyone she encounters. A rare force of nature, RIMIDI is not just her name—she is a vibration, a calling, and a movement.
Her voice—both literal and spiritual—is a vessel for the divine. Fusing experimental alternative soul with ancestral ritual, multidimensional storytelling, and new-age frequencies, RIMIDI’s artistry transcends entertainment; it’s a transmission. Her forthcoming album and short film, JUNO: THE LATE BLOOMER, marks a pivotal moment in her unfolding—a sacred offering of sound and story crafted in partnership with Powerblast Worldwide to ignite transformation around the globe.
Born Shawnnette Longley, her journey reflects both human and divine design. Raised on the timeless sounds of Sade, Anita Baker, George Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Prince, RIMIDI began as a young girl writing lyrics in notebooks, harmonizing in girl groups, and singing into her first karaoke machine given to her by her mother —an early divine activation. Now, she leads her self-titled band and curates immersive experiences that blend soul music, spiritual wellness, and intentional living.
From collaborating with icons, to performing for Disney and ABC Network, RIMIDI's artistry is both revered and raw—grounded in emotional depth and spiritual power. Her performances with her self-titled band captivate audiences with charismatic authenticity and an unshakable presence that moves hearts and liberates souls. Her sound is a portal, and her stage is a sanctuary.
Her performances are not just concerts—they are ceremonies. Her voice is not just a sound—it is a frequency. Her art is a prayer.
But RIMIDI’s impact extends far beyond the stage. As the Founder and CEO of GEM CULTURE™, a Miami-based nonprofit, she has mentored hundreds of creatively gifted youth—cultivating safe spaces rooted in authenticity, creativity, individualism, self-love, and community. With over 15 years in education, she has designed and shaped trauma-informed, heart-centered programs and have worked with thousands of youth across classrooms and communities alike that have changed lives. Her background in supervision, curriculum design, and youth development grounds her work in both strategy and soul.
Her sacred work flows into wellness, where she teaches yoga, breathwork, and radical rest as tools for spiritual alignment.
She is also the architect of the FIND YOUR RIMIDI™ experience—a transformative music and healing retreat that invites people into soul centered, presence, expression, and alignment through movement, mindfulness, sound, the arts, forward thinking technology, the celebration of self and sacred intention.
Across her career, RIMIDI has held many roles:
She has composed, performed, taught, led, consulted, curated, and guided—in schools, in studios, on stages, and in sacred spaces around the world. Her résumé spans global collaborations, youth empowerment programs, festival design, and leadership in arts and wellness.
But what sets her apart isn’t what she’s done—it’s how she does it.
Whether working with a student, producing a global event, or singing before a crowd, RIMIDI leads with values that don’t bend:
Sacredness. Integrity. Expression. Alignment. Service. Liberation.
Her presence is healing. Her vision is clarifying. And her gift is in helping others remember their own.
Whether performing, mentoring, curating, teaching, or healing, RIMIDI is a multidimensional muse and thought leader devoted to God, growth, and global transformation. Her life is an unfolding prayer—rooted in purpose, rising in power, and blooming in divine time.
With JUNO: THE LATE BLOOMER on the horizon and a worldwide calling expanding at her feet, RIMIDI is not just reintroducing herself—she’s returning to her truest form.
