Background[edit]

On 25 August 2017, Amir announced on Facebook that he would be releasing his new album on 27 October 2017 and the album would include the single "États d'Amour".[4] He announced the title of the album to be Addictions on 7 September 2017, he also unveiled the album's cover art.[5][6][7]

Critical reception[edit]

Katie Wilson from Wiwibloggs said, "there isn’t one track on the album that has been rushed or overlooked [...] combining upbeat pop with more mellow and heartfelt sounds [...] While he sings in French, his style is all-American, bringing in one of those classically lyricless techno choruses that bears resemblance to One Republic, from across the pond.". "Opium" was noted specifically as a standout track.[8]
