Self-esteem and confidence play an integral role in the development of a musician and it seems Nigerian artiste Ayra Starr has loads of that.
The new entrant to the Nigerian music industry whose real name is Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe has confidently stated via her official Twitter account on April 13, 2022, that she’s going to be one of the greatest artistes in the world.
She tweeted; ”I’m gonna be one of the Greatest 🤍👼🏾”
Ayra Starr achieved mainstream recognition with her eponymous debut extended play and its hit track “Away” which spent two consecutive weeks at number four on Nigeria’s TurnTable Top 50 and went to number 17 on US Billboard Top Triller Global, paving the way for the release of her first full-length studio album, 19 & Dangerous in August 2021.
Categorized mainly as Afropop and R&B, the album has been met with favorable critical reception. It spawned two top forty hits in Nigeria.
The lead single “Bloody Samaritan” peaked atop the Top 50 chart, becoming the first solo song by a female artist to reach the number-one position. Starr debuted on Pandora Predictions chart, and on 28 August 2021, she ranked number two on Billboard’s Next Big Sound (Wikipedia).
