WeLoveKaraoke: An Evening of Praise and Celebration

By: City Pride Magazine Staff

Pyureti Imaani Is Bringing Faith, Music & Community Together Through Praise Karaoke

Meet the visionary behind WeLoveKaraoke and a new kind of karaoke experience designed to turn voices into celebration.

For Pyureti, music has never been just entertainment. It has been a vehicle for connection, creativity, self-expression, and joy.

As a vocalist, producer, entrepreneur, and founder of We Love Karaoke, Pyureti has built her career around creating experiences that invite people to step out of the audience and into the moment. Now, she is bringing that vision to a new experience: Praise Karaoke.

Praise Karaoke is an uplifting celebration centered around gospel and inspirational music, where guests don’t simply listen—they participate. With a microphone in hand and a room full of people singing along, the experience transforms familiar songs into shared moments of joy, reflection, and celebration.

For Pyureti, that communal energy is at the heart of the concept.

“Music has a way of bringing people back to themselves,” she believes. “You can walk into a room not knowing anybody and leave feeling connected because you shared a song.”

More Than a Song List

That philosophy has shaped WeLoveKaraoke, the entertainment company Pyureti created to offer karaoke as a complete experience rather than simply a playlist and microphone.

With access to a catalog of more than 15 million songs, live musicians, an autotune option, harmonizing background singers, eight wireless microphones, and interactive entertainment, WeLoveKaraoke can transform a gathering into an experience where everyone has an opportunity to be part of the moment.

Pyureti sees karaoke as a platform with endless possibilities.

It can be a party, a date night, a corporate experience, a community gathering, or a place for someone to finally conquer their fear of performing. Praise Karaoke adds another dimension: creating a space where people can celebrate faith and inspiration through the songs they love.

A Journey Rooted in Music

Pyureti’s entrepreneurial journey has been shaped by creativity, resilience, and a lifelong relationship with music.

Originally from Detroit, she brought her creative vision to Los Angeles, where she continued developing a multifaceted career spanning music production, live entertainment, events, and community experiences.

She is also the creative force behind SOULTYDE, a live band rooted in Neo Soul, R&B, funk, and soulful sounds.

Whether she’s producing experiences, performing, or creating music, her work consistently reflects the same instinct: create something that people can feel.

Praise Karaoke is a natural extension of that vision.

Where Everyone Gets a Turn

One of the most memorable parts of karaoke is often the person who almost didn’t get on the microphone.

The nervous first-timer.

The friend who suddenly becomes the star of the night.

The person who knows every word to a song.

The group that turns one song into a full performance.

Those moments are what Pyureti wants to cultivate.

WeLoveKaraoke isn’t about having the perfect voice. It’s

There is room for the powerhouse vocalist, the shower singer, the person who only knows the chorus, and the entire room that decides to sing along. Every experience makes participation the centerpiece rather than perfection.

Building With Purpose

As WeLoveKaraoke continues to grow, Pyureti is developing experiences that reflect different audiences, moods, and occasions while maintaining the same foundation of quality entertainment and genuine connection.

Praise Karaoke allows her to explore that mission through a particularly meaningful lens: faith, gratitude, hope, and celebration.

A song can bring back a memory. It can lift someone’s spirits. It can make strangers laugh together. It can create an unexpected sense of belonging.

And sometimes, it can remind someone of their own voice.

That is the experience Pyureti Imaani is building—one where the music is familiar, the atmosphere is uplifting, and everyone has a chance to be part of the celebration.

Praise Karaoke takes place every Sunday at the Inner City Media Center, 9133 South Western Avenue in South Central Los Angeles.

The event is free and open to the community.

For those who have been searching for a safe, family-friendly way to enjoy karaoke outside of the traditional club and bar scene, Praise Karaoke offers another option: come as you are, grab a microphone, enjoy Sunday dinner, and add your voice to the room.
