Blessed with a unique voice and a passion for fashion, 19-year-old phenom Rich Amiri is already one of rap music’s most distinctive vocalists. Flexing his muscular sense of melody on his most robust project to date, the Boston-born artist shares GHETTO FABULOUS. Spanning 14 tracks, the new project from the Internet Money Records signee features some of the famed collective’s most luxurious production to date–Rio Leyva takes the helm behind boards, with credits on 12 of the project’s 14 tracks, welcoming contributions from IM fellows like founder Taz Taylor, Census, and ThankYouWill, plus unaffiliated associates like Zuko and maxvon. Shouldering the load with no features necessary, Amiri takes advantage of the room-enveloping production, his bellowing bass cutting through the cavernous atmosphere with commanding authority and unpredictable melodics.
“With GHETTO FABULOUS, I’m highlighting the lifestyle of showy but superficial glamour and luxury that is usually adopted by people in an urban ghetto,” explains Rich Amiri. “This lifestyle is something I experienced throughout my life and wanted to showcase it through this album.”
On November 17th, Rich Amiri hosts a GHETTO FABULOUS listening party at Apt 200 in Los Angeles. Amiri returns to L.A. in March, when he takes the stage at Rolling Loud California 2024 on Sunday March 17th.
With GHETTO FABULOUS, Amiri makes his case for being the next music star you can’t ignore. Stay tuned and watch him soar to new heights.
