Supersize is the debut studio album by German rapper and singer Shirin David, released for digital download and streaming on 19 September 2019 by Juicy Money Records. Prior, David had primarily been a YouTuber and only ventured into music as a featured artist on Ado Kojo's 2015 top ten-hit "Du liebst mich nicht" ("You Don't Love Me"). On Supersize, David mainly collaborated with Chima Ede and FNSHRS on what reviewers categorized as pop rap and R&B songs that feature David singing and rapping. Lyrically, the album's material often delves on empowerment, hedonism, materialism and self-objectification.
Upon release, Supersize received lukewarm reviews from music critics, with them questioning David's status as a rapper and alleging that the album was released solely with the intent of generating profit from its sales. Seven singles released throughout 2019 aided the record—"Orbit", "Gib Ihm" ("Give Him"), "Ice", "Fliegst Du mit" ("Do You Fly with Me"), "On Off" featuring Maître Gims, "Brillis" and "Nur mit dir"[A] ("Only with You") featuring Xavier Naidoo; "Gib Ihm" became David's first number-one on the German singles chart. Commercially, Supersize was successful in German-speaking countries, reaching number one in David's native country and becoming the first album by a German female solo rapper to achieve this feat. It further reached numbers two and three in Austria and Switzerland, respectively.
