We show that at 1PN all four-dimensional black hole solutions in asymptotically flat spacetimes can be derived from leading singularities involving minimally coupled three-particle amplitudes. Furthermore, we show that the rotating solutions can be derived from their non-rotating counterparts by a spin-factor deformation of the relevant minimally coupled amplitudes. To show this, we compute the tree-level and one-loop leading singularities for a heavy charged source with generic spin s. We compute the metrics both with and without a spin factor and show that we get both the Kerr-Newman and Reissner-Nordstr\"om solutions respectively. We then go on to compute the impulse imparted to the probe particle in the infinite spin limit and show that the spin factor induces a complex deformation of the impact parameter, as was recently observed for Kerr black holes in a recent paper by Arkani-Hamed et al. We interpret these observations as being the on-shell avatar of the Janis-Newman algorithm for charged black holes.
