SHARES NEW SINGLE “PASSIONATE”
Amindi announces her new EP Luvr due July 17th. The 6-song project signifies a bold new chapter for Amindi embracing more pop and R&B influences and showcasing her softer feminine side. Amindi recently signed to Grammy-nominated creative Rogét Chahayed’s (Kali Uchis, Travis Scott, Nas, Doja Cat) TruSauce publishing and the EP features production from the acclaimed producer.
Speaking on Luvr, Amindi states: “Luvr is a 6-song EP that accurately paints me as the kind of lover I am—a real one. For those who this will make sense to: I’m a Libra sun, Taurus rising, Scorpio moon & Mercury, my Venus is in Virgo, and I have a Sagittarius Mars. For those who that doesn’t make sense to: this project was always bound to happen. Pressing play on Luvr is you signing up to: a) listen to me sing about flings as if they were full-blown relationships, b) hear the devotion and desire that courses through me, and c) get a sense of what I’d sound like if I committed to the bit (making pop music.) To the people who inspired these songs and have experienced my passion first-hand: thank you and you’re welcome, respectively. <3″
In celebration of the announcement Amindi drops the lead single “Passionate.” Speaking about the song she shares, “I originally named this song after the guy that it’s about, but thought maybe that would be doing too much. I made it in January while I was still healing a bit, and I sound like I’m blaming myself for having a voice, and I hate that. I didn’t do anything wrong except for trying to get an avoidant person to communicate.” The song is produced by Rogét Chahayed, Brandon Shoop and Taydex.
Growing up in the vibrant spaces of Inglewood, California, Amindi’s experimentation on GarageBand in high school quickly led to the release of her 2017 smash hit “Pineand Ginger” – a breakthrough record which gained well over 23M streams on Spotify alone and an explosive remix from dancehall pioneers Popcaan and Kranium. Following a stream of infectious singles, Amindi would later drop her stunning debut EP nice in 2021, presenting her exploration of self-love and resilience before featuring on “All Herb” across Isaiah Rashad’s highly acclaimed album The House Is Burning.
Last year saw Amindi unleash her blossoming debut mixtape Take What You Need, serving as a deeper expansion of her creative journey while gaining powerful introspection from some of the most culturally resonant artists in the US right now; from Jordan Ward and Frex to Kenny Mason and acclaimed producer monte booker adding a timeless gloss to what stands as a significant project for the Jamaican heritage artist.
Entering 2024 as one of Pigeons & Planes ‘Artists To Watch’, the rising talent earned serious stripes following support slots with Ghanaian-American superstar Amaarae and a debut performance at Coachella, all building towards the release of Take What You Need and Then Some earlier in May.
