Review: "hush" - Amissa Amare


hush Amissa Amare Alt Cover

On Amissa Amare's website, she declares herself as your new favorite pop star. And on her debut single, "hush," she proves it. "hush" is a grand entrance from Amissa, establishing her strong songwriting abilities and undeniable star power off the bat. The track is a 2000s pastiche with a modern Latin flare. It's about cutting the chit-chat and dancing all night long. From its irresistible groove to Amissa's personality-filled performance, "hush" is a near-pitch-perfect pop cut. With her first song, Amissa already proves to be an artist to look out for.




Amissa's blend of reggaeton and Y2K-dance music makes for a perfect pop fusion. "hush" calls back to that golden age of pop with a still unmistakably singular and fresh sound. It is fitting that "hush" is all about loving live music because the track is destined for late nights at the club. The song is endlessly catchy, from the singer's soft, sultry vocal inflections to the infectious guitar refrain. It's basically impossible not to start dancing once you hear it. But more than anything, Amissa takes center stage on the track. The song is attitude-filled and cheeky, especially her whisper delivery on the titular line, and her vocal talent is undeniable. "hush" is a must-listen track.


Amissa Amare is a Barcelona-based singer-songwriter. She began her music career during the pandemic, covering other artists' songs and dabbling in songwriting of her own. She quickly fell in love with the art form and began to craft her own sound. Inspired by the likes of Brintey Spears and cultural soundscapes in Spain, Amissa aims to make dark pop music with earnest lyricism. "hush" is her first officially released track, with bigger things planned to come. Amissa's debut EP, "change the channel," is slated to release in early 2025, and if "hush" is any indicator, the project will be chocked full of exceptional pop music. You can listen to "hush" now on all streaming platforms.
