Although a registered YouTube producer since December 2005, he has been gaining increased popularity in recent months on the strength of several self-produced short films in which he parodies President Barack Obama. Iman’s viewership has also increased considerably after being featured in YouTube video collaborations on the popular YouTube channel of LisaNova, web alias of noted actress Lisa Donovan. Since January 2009, he has been portraying Obama in The District, an online satirical video series presented by Newsweek.
In his blog The Daily Dish, Andrew Sullivan of The Atlantic judged Iman's impression of Obama as "better than Fred Armisen" of Saturday Night Live fame. Actor Fred Armisen has received a lot of attention for his Barack Obama impersonation, although in the view of some critics, it is not considered sufficiently accurate or funny. President Obama himself facetiously took exception to it in an interview, saying "compared to Tina Fey and what she's doing with Governor [Sarah] Palin, my imitator [Armisen] isn't doing as great of a job." On the other hand, it has been said of Iman that he mimics Obama's pitch, intonation and cadence perfectly.

I was obsessed with all his videos when it first came out. It’s crazy! Still know the words! Crazy how things have changed. I miss these years

That was so awesome! Very funny, pretty accurate too. And Lisa's singing made it all the better! Good job guys.

I'm so glad I found this video again because it brought me back to Lisa Lavie who I haven't listened to since like 2011. About to go binge on her music again after almost a decade. My goodness! 😩😫😫

This is an AMAZING song! You two are AWESOME! It is soooo sad that Lavie gets fed up. Please don't give up. Iman is FANTASTIC as Obama. You both are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo talented. I will send this video to others to help you two.

People just listen to the song and just say "its good, its bad" but no-one realises how much effort it is to think of the lyrics, make the music video, and edit. This guy has talent!!!
