Beckah Amani - LOVE YOU LIKE A SUPERSTAR TOUR

In her new single "Superstar," Beckah Amani delivers an alternative afro pop anthem that champions self-worth and the need to be truly seen. The track embodies Beckah's quest for something lasting, with lyrics that explore the delicate balance between protecting your heart and risking the loss of meaningful connections. The track was co-produced by Beckah and Conor Lawson (Adrian Dzvuke) with additional production by The Imports (Beyoncé , Tkay Maidza), a duo originally from Cape Town and now based in Los Angeles. Taking the song from traditional pop and afro sonics, The Imports injected the song with genre-defying energy, seamlessly intertwining Afrobeat rhythms with an underlying dance sample. Beckah’s raw, vulnerable vocals ground the mix, creating a striking contrast that evokes both the thrill of possibility and the earnest anxiety of uncertainty.
Beckah has spent the past year and a half living between London and Australia with occasional short trips to LA. Tapping into the creative scenes of these places, Beckah has crafted a rich and sonically expensive body of work that will shape Beckah Amani’s next era. Working with a high caliber of producers, writers and musicians such as Jakwob (little Simz, Nina Archives), MPhazes (Remi Wolf, Kehlani), Rory Noble (Burna Boy, Ruel), The Imports (Tkay Maidza), Alice Ivy and Femi Koleoso from Mercury Prize-winning act, Ezra Collective; Beckah has created a world where she expresses her love for pop, afro and indie soul. In this new era, Beckah continues to write lyrics that feel both intimately personal and widely resonant. She draws on deeply personal topics – heartbreak, identity, placelessness, — with grace offering both solace and motivation creating a space for listeners to stand still and feel seen.
Already, Beckah Amani has captured widespread industry attention - most recently nominated for Emerging Songwriter of the Year at the 2024 APRA Awards. Last year, Beckah was named in the NME 100, spotlighted as an essential emerging artist to look out for in 2023, while 2022 saw her take home the APRA Professional Development Award for Popular Contemporary, plus the QMA Award for Emerging Artist of the Year in 2021 presented by triple j Unearthed. Previous singles, including her most-recent “Sober” produced by Jakwob (Nia Archives), “Lebeka Leka” produced by Josh Fountain (BENEE) and Tony Buchen (Troye Sivan, G Flip), and Beckah’s heartfelt debut EP, April, enjoyed extensive support from triple j, community radio, and followed industry live showcases at the likes of Bigsound and The Great Escape.
