Amaarae Essentials

Amaarae Essentials

In 2017, with the release of her project Passionfruit Summers, Amaarae (born Ama Serwah Genfi) set in motion a career that would pique reverence from the West African alternative music scene and transcend numerous cultural stratospheres. The Ghanaian American artist’s sound intrinsically mirrors the nuances of her background, having grown up between Accra, Atlanta, and New Jersey. You might find her showcasing inspirations derived from the sweltering 808 and whimsical stylings of Southern rappers with her audacious flows (“body count”) or enhancing sultry numbers with her mellifluous whisper-singing (“Bling”). For Amaarae, the formula is ever-expanding and multidimensional.
