Based between Atlanta, Georgia and New York City, Ari Amun is a singer-songwriter who spins uplifting melodies throughout her original sound. Her soulful voice truly dazzles as she delivers a stunning pop and R&B output. Originally growing up in Powder Springs in Georgia, Ari followed her sonic passion to study Contemporary Vocals at NYU.
She took her first steps as an artist by sharing covers online before making her full artistic entrance with her 2020 debut single “Drowning,” a poignant song that saw her recount her struggle with mental health during her teenage years. The following year she dropped her sophomore single “Attitude,” which saw her win over new fans and receive critical acclaim. Now she returns to unveil the next chapter of her sonic vision with the brand new single titled “Human Nature,” this time linking up with rising southern Californian artist Madhi.
Iâm very proud of the songs I wrote and produced in high school as I wouldnât be the songwriter and singer I am without them, but at the same time, Iâm excited to release music thatâs more aligned with my artistry. I have worked very hard over the past couple years especially on who I am as a vocalist, and I feel âHuman Natureâ is a great opener to whatâs to come,” she shares.
With “Human Nature” she crafts a stunning sound of alternative R&B pop full of laid back beats, colourful instrumentation, soaring vocal leads and poignant lyricism. With Madhi laying down a delicate keyboard backing and producing the track, punchy rhythm and a minimal arrangement set up a slick groove for Ari the weave her sensational vocal performance above.
Paired with the single is a new music video directed by Kameron Jones, offering a colourful visual accompaniment to the track. Following Ari singing the song in various scenes from retro style living room, surrounded by nature to on a TV and in the mirror, it offers a cinematic experience to match the exquisite new song.
Commenting on the single, Ari shares, “Human Nature is about seeing someone who is perceived as perfect without rose-colored glasses. We always have that one person in our life who seems perfect with no sign of flaws. For me, it was a particular person who I felt could do no wrong. I quickly realised how dehumanising it was to put them on such a high pedestal, assuming characteristics about their life I had never seen in full.”
Adding, “However itâs also about becoming so consumed with superficial things that we canât see the true beauty of the world right in front of us. We are all connected through nature and each other which is, in my opinion, the most beautiful form we can take. Itâs important to not lose the root of what we were born with and embrace our own human nature.”
