The Pop Corporation

The influence of African music on pop culture is obvious, but it really feels like it has been roundly overlooked in full discourse. Either way, the influence is evident on the new track from Ghanaian/American singer, Amaarae’s new single.

Melding R&B, dance, afrobeats, pop and more, Amaarae has been turning heads with forward thinking music, which resulted in a co-sign from Kali Uchis amongst others.

There’s a new album due called ‘Black Star’, and the first track taken from it is ‘S.M.O.’, which you can listen to right now.
