Aminé is officially in album mode. After clearing his Instagram earlier in the week to drop an influx of new album-related content, the rapper has returned with his first new single of 2025. Entitled “Familiar,” the quippy new cut marks the first official offering from the rapper’s forthcoming studio venture.

Clocking in at just under two minutes long, “Familiar” arrives after Aminé’s busy end to 2024, complete with a handful of YouTube offerings, sneaker drops and his inaugural music festival, The Best Day Ever. 

“You love somebody while knowing that it’s not the right thing to do, but it’s still hard to let go,” the rapper shared more of the song’s inspirations in a press release. “I let a little bit of my toxic side onto the track, too, but I think that honesty is important.”

“I can’t imagine you with somebody else / Won’t let it happen, if I do then I’ll hang myself / I’m split by a fraction, deciding thangs like this is hard to adapt with / Hard to adapt with,” he spits on the first verse.

While album details still remain under wraps at the time of writing, stream “Familiar” on Spotify and Apple Music in the meantime and stay tuned for more updates on the new album as they surface.
