RICH AMIRI SHARES NEW SINGLE”PARANOID” – VIA INTERNET MONEY/10K PROJECTS

On the heels of his recent sold-out performance at Summer Fest in Milwaukee, Rich Amiri has just shared his first single of 2025, “Paranoid” — out now via Internet Money / 10k Projects. Swapping his signature rage-ready sonic style for a cleaner, pop-inspired offering, “Paranoid” finds Rich Amiri flowing melodically alongside a mystery female vocalist and hook as he embraces the pressure and basks in the fruits of his success – “My chain is tennis, I put some flawless diamonds in it / I ball like Jordan, my brother ball like Scottie Pippen”. With the new release serving as the follow-up to last year’s sophomore album WAR READY, an 18-track offering that flexed his unmistakable baritone vocals, ear-grabbing melodies and a world-building, psychedelic sound, Rich Amiri also recently wrapped up his second and longest headlining tour, a 24-stop nationwide run with support from Swapa. The release of “Paranoid” officially marks the start of a new era for Rich Amiri, as he continues to tease the forthcoming release of his next project, Grit and Grace.

After a breakout year that included being named a 2024 XXL Freshman, Rich Amiri released his sophomore album WAR READY in December, featuring standout singles like “KEEP IT COOL” (85M+Streams), the Waka Flocka Flame-sampling “COUNT MY BANDZ” (20M+streams), and collaborations with OsamaSon on “AMIRI TRENDSETTER” and “IM WITH IT”. WAR READY built on the cinematic, genre-bending sound he established on 2023’s Ghetto Fabulous, home to the RIAA Platinum-certified hit “ONE CALL” (1B+Streams). In 2024, Amiri also completed a successful U.S. headlining tour with five sold-out shows, delivered electric sets at Rolling Loud California, Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash, and Wireless Festival in London, and even made his runway debut with Ed Hardy. Hailed for his futuristic blend of soul, trap, and R&B, Rich Amiri is now peeling the curtains back to offer the first glimpse into his highly-anticipated follow-up project.
