Today, Portland-born rapper Aminé shares the new song and video ‘Charmander’. LISTEN HERE + WATCH HERE.

The single represents a new sonic chapter for Aminé, featuring a bubbly and clubby beat buoying his tongue-in-cheek lyrics about reclusion and introspection. ‘Charmander’ is featured as part of Apple Music’s New Music Daily and, in conjunction with that, Aminé discussed the track with Zane Lowe, who featured the song on his Apple Music 1 radio show this morning. The video, co-directed by Aminé himself and Jack Begert, arrives in conjunction with the new track that sees Aminé living the simple life with his partner in a wide-windowed cabin in the Oregon wilderness.

‘Charmander’ marks the first offering from Aminé in 2021 following the release of his acclaimed 2020 album Limbo, which features standout songs like ‘Compensating (ft. Young Thug)‘, ‘Woodlawn‘ and ‘Shimmy‘.

Speaking about the genesis of ‘Charmander’, Aminé shares, “After the release of Limbo I took some time to experiment and challenge myself to create in ways I hadn’t before — exploring different textures and tempos without any expectations. ‘Charmander’ was the first product of that period that felt natural while still being at a completely different BPM than any of my previous work”. Listen to and watch ‘Charmander’ and stay tuned for more from Aminé coming soon.

About AMINÉ

At the age of 21, Adam Aminé Daniel burst onto the scene with his 6x-platinum single, ‘Caroline’. The Portland-born rapper has come a long way since then; a fact made clear by his critically acclaimed releases. ‘Good For You’ drew praise on arrival with writeups in XXL, The New York Times, Complex, and more. ‘Limbo’, released in 2020, debuted in the Top 10 of the Billboard Top Hip Hop Albums chart with features from Young Thug, Summer Walker, Vince Staples, and more. Between explosive sets at Coachella and Lollapalooza, plus a show-stopping performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Aminé has solidified himself as a force of nature. Making his acting debut on HBO’s ‘Insecure’, he’s proven that his talents go beyond the studio and the stage to a whole new medium of entertainment. Coming off of a 2021 Grammy nomination for Disclosure collaboration, ‘My High’, Aminé has more extensive plans to revisit the world of dance/hip-hop crossover records. As live music returns, the second half of this year will feature a variety of innovative, genre-bending releases that could come at no better time for packing a dance floor.
