About 
Amaarae

Avant-garde international pop star Amaarae shares her highly anticipated album BLACK STAR – out now. Known for breaking the mold with her boundary-pushing blend of alternative, pop, R&B, and Afrobeats, Amaarae presents her boldest mix of global sonics yet with BLACK STAR, sending up her Ghanaian roots as a rallying cry for youth culture around the world. The diaspora-hopping BLACK STAR is a futuristic statement of cultural pride through an ever-shifting palette of ghettotech, house, techno, baile funk, and African dance genres—stamped with Amaarae’s signature softness and hypnotic vocals and featuring contributions from PinkPantheress, Naomi Campbell, Bree Runway, Starkillers, and Charlie Wilson. It recontextualizes Ghanaian and African music with pop and club sounds across time and space, connecting them with the roots of modern-day dance music, house and techno.
