Out now across all major platforms, “Need Somebody” is the fresh new single from versatile UK-based artist A!MS, featuring none other than UK rap favorite ArrDee. Blending a smooth Afrobeat rhythm with infectious hooks and laid-back flows, the track serves as a preview of what’s to come on A!MS’ highly anticipated album, Peak Season.
Produced by Columbia’s Golden Boy with songwriting contributions from Stige, Need Somebody rides a cool, breezy groove, perfect for summer. The hook is catchy and melodic, with a singalong quality that pulls listeners in effortlessly. A!MS delivers a textured vocal performance with calm energy and charisma, while ArrDee brings a sharp contrast with his signature cadence and smooth rap delivery, seamlessly riding the Afro-tinged beat.
With Need Somebody, A!MS continues to define his ‘Global Street’ genre—a fusion of cultures, sounds, and styles aimed at uplifting and connecting listeners worldwide. The single follows the success of Light & Love featuring Julian Marley, which has racked up over 5 million streams and received support from Billboard, BBC 1Xtra, Capital Xtra, SiriusXM, BET, LinkUp TV, and the Bob Marley estate. Light & Love, along with Peak Season, is officially being submitted for GRAMMY® consideration in the Best Global Music Performance category.
As part of the Peak Season rollout, A!MS is also curating a series of his famed Wave Fest events at WaterWorld WaterPark in Ayia Napa, Cyprus—his current base. This year’s lineup includes ArrDee, B Young, Dappy, Oxlade, Ramz, Wiley, ZieZie, and A!MS himself. Known for having the Biggest Sound System in the Mediterranean, Wave Fest has earned the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for its unique multi-sensory experience.
