Grammy-nominated Nigerian singer Ayra Starr has expressed her ambition to emerge as one of the prominent figures in the Afrobeats scene.
The 21-year-old artist also revealed her aspiration for Afrobeats to ascend as the foremost genre globally.
In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan UK, Ayra Starr stated, “My hope for Afrobeats is for it to be the biggest genre in the world. Because it deserves to be. Other genres of music are great, but there’s nothing like Afrobeat.
Even the sad music makes you feel good. So, I want Afrobeats to be the biggest genre in the world and I would love to be one of the leading artists.”
