Amaarae makes her debut on the pages of HNHH this morning, with a fresh new remix of her increasingly popular song, “SAD GIRLZ LUV MONEY.” To that effect, that Ghanaian-American singer has recruited similar baby-voiced Kali Uchis to add some extra vocals to the song, and Kali slides through delivering a bilingual verse to match the aesthetic of the record.
Amaarae spoke about recruiting Kali for the shimmery, verging on dancehall-esque song, stating in a press release,
“‘SAD GIRLZ LUV MONEY’ was already a magical song with myself and Moliy but Kali takes it to a new dimension! I’m excited to have her on the remix. I’ve loved her music since I was 19 in College so to be able to work on this with her was amazing and she kills her verse! I think the Sad Girlz Worldwide are going to LOVE this!”
Meanwhile, Kali echoed, “I love this song so much and was honored when Ama asked me to be a part of this. She deserves all the success and blessings coming her way.”
The original record appeared on Amaarae’s debut effort, THE ANGEL YOU DON’T KNOW, a 14-song body of work that dropped in 2020. The album showcases Amaarae’s wide-spanning and oft quirky influences when it comes to the r’n’b sound.

Quotable Lyrics
I really like your body, I really like your body
I don’t know why you hide it
I wanna see it behind me
You know you don’t gotta lie to me
– Kali
