Amaarae’s new album Black Star is out today. To accompany the release, she’s shared a video for the album track “Fineshyt.” The clip, shot in Ghana, follows a young woman from being eyed up by Amaarae at the club to the morning after. Watch it below.

“1998 had “Blue” by French Duo Eiffel 65, 1999 had “Believe” by Cher & at the turn of a new millennium Modjo gave us “Lady,” Amaarae said in a press statment. “Now, we’re at the mark of a quarter century, and “Fineshyt” is my contribution to a sound and feeling that not only took over clubs but minds, bodies and souls alike. Music is such a beautiful and special medium and being an artist has been God’s greatest gift to me.

She continued: “I remember being a little girl in Ghana hearing “Believe” by Cher and immediately being entranced. The hard tuned vocals, the glittery dance beat, and that hook! Do you believe in life after love! What a sentiment. A true manifesto of life. My favorite thing to do as an artist is take an inspired concept and flip it on its head. In this case, “Fineshyt” is “Believe”’s bad ass play cousin or maybe it’s evil twin sister!”

The follow-up to 2023’s Fountain Baby, Black Star was led by the singles “S.M.O.” and “Girlie-Pop!” Last year, Amaarae put out the EP Roses Are Red, Tears Are Blue — A Fountain Baby Extended Play.
