In 2020 Amaarae released the song "Sad Girlz Luv Money" featuring Moliy on her debut album The Angel You Don't Know. In 2021 the song was remixed with a feature from Kali Uchis which then went on to become a viral hit on social media and streaming platforms, charting globally. Having collaborated with artists like AYLØ, Kay-Ara, Yaw P, Amaarae released her debut project Passionfruit Summers in 2017. The album features the standout song, "Fluid", which was complemented by a critically acclaimed music video. Recognized both locally and internationally, she was named one of Apple Music Africa's Favourite New Artist in April 2018 and later that year became an Apple Music Beats 1 featured artist for her debut project Passionfruit Summers which she released through her independent record label, Golden Child LLC on November 30, 2017.

In 2018, she was featured in Vogue Magazine online in an article on 4 women across the globe with buzz haircuts and snagged a mention as one of Vogue online's Top 100 Style Influencers of 2018, in addition to being nominated as Artist of the Year at the Glitz Style Awards in Ghana. She has also patronized Ghanaian fashion brand Free The Youth.
