Jade Amar was on track for a career in film when she first moved to L.A., but after dazzling an A&R with her freestyling skills during a chance encounter at the BET Awards, her course was permanently altered. She transferred from SMC to the Berklee College of Music, enrolling in their Music Business program to study up on the industry while working multiple jobs to pay her tuition and continuing to write music in her free time.

In 2019, Jade landed a pub deal with Prescription Songs after impressing Mike Crook (Blueface, Doja Cat, Juice WRLD, YG) during a writing session for Saweetie. Since then, Jade has been brought into writing sessions for Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Megan Thee Stallion, Kehlani, NBA YoungBoy, Kevin Gates, Dani Leigh, Queen Naija, and others.

The Baltimore-born, LA-bred songstress has been singing and rapping since age seven and can recount many fond memories of her father helping her to come up with lyrics on their walks to the store as well as hours spent watching and analyzing rap battle videos with her uncle. Jade has taken inspiration from the unique flow and pattern raps of fellow Baltimore-native, King Los and others like Missy Elliott, Eve, Drake, and J. Cole.

Despite her success as a songwriter, Amar has bigger ambitions. “Cherry Red” stands as the cherry on top of a fruitful songwriting career, leaving the door wide open for a push into the limelight. A behind-the-scenes breakout, Amar has all the ingredients to reach stardom like the very artists she’s written for.
