Avant-garde Ghanaian pop star Amaarae has officially dropped her highly anticipated album BLACK STAR, out now via Interscope Records. Known for her fearless fusion of Afropop, alternative R&B, house, techno, baile funk and African dance music, Amaarae delivers her most ambitious project yet—an electrifying celebration of Ghanaian roots and global youth culture.
The 14-track project features PinkPantheress, Naomi Campbell, Bree Runway, Starkillers, and Charlie Wilson, blending ghettotech, house, and club sounds with Amaarae’s signature soft, hypnotic vocals. BLACK STAR reimagines African music in a futuristic, cross-continental context, connecting it to the origins of modern dance music.
Alongside the release, Amaarae unveiled the visual for “Fineshyt”, shot in Ghana and following a confident, magnetic young woman through vibrant nightlife and bustling city streets.
