Amaarae Set to Release New Album BLACK STAR This Friday: Here’s Everything We Know

Ghanaian-American alté-pop sensation Amaarae is back with a bold new chapter. The genre-defying artist has announced her upcoming album titled BLACK STAR, which is set to drop this Friday — and it’s already sparking major excitement across the music world.

The project features a star-studded lineup that blends pop, R&B, electronic, and experimental vibes. According to the official tracklist, BLACK STAR will include collaborations with:

• PinkPantheress – the UK hyperpop darling known for her catchy, genre-mashing anthems.

• Naomi Campbell – the supermodel and cultural icon is surprisingly listed, hinting at either a spoken word interlude or creative feature.

• Bree Runway – one of the most exciting voices in experimental rap-pop right now, sure to bring energy and bold visuals.

• Starkillers – potentially introducing an EDM element or high-energy drop that expands Amaarae’s sonic universe.

• Charlie Wilson – the legendary R&B vocalist adds soulful depth and a cross-generational touch.

Amaarae’s last album, The Angel You Don’t Know, earned her international acclaim for its fearless style, boundary-breaking aesthetics, and unique voice. With BLACK STAR, she seems poised to level up yet again, channeling both her African roots and global influences.

The album’s title itself is a powerful nod. “Black Star” references Ghana’s nickname — the “Black Star of Africa” — but also feels like a broader celebration of Black excellence, pride, and the constellation of Black artists shining worldwide.

With such an eclectic guest list and her history of delivering forward-thinking music, BLACK STAR could very well be Amaarae’s most ambitious and iconic project to date.

Release Date: This Friday
Platforms: All major streaming services

Stay tuned for our first-listen review and track-by-track breakdown once the album drops.
