Imani Vol. 1 is the fourth studio album by American hip hop duo Blackalicious. It was released on September 18, 2015, after a decade-long hiatus since their previous album, The Craft. The title of the album means "faith" in Swahili, and it is the first part of what was a planned trilogy of albums before Timothy Parker died of kidney failure in 2021. Work began on the album in 2012, with the making of the album being crowdfunded via the website Pledgemusic.
