Grammy was clueless but Ayra will have longevity because her talent speaks for itself. Her music is very authentic African and not RnB. She's also a very good songwriter. The most complete artist in Africa and the new queen of afrobeats. Grammy should never be allowed to dictate what afrobeats should sound like; neither should they push for American/western washed afrobeats
I'm totally agree
And all of that’s on period girl. Everything you said was the truth
😊😮
lmao...Tyla's win hurt you. LMAOOOOO
@@mmphela7215baba go and sit down
Who ever did ayra Starr make up is fire 🔥 the way he/she blended the eye shadow with the outfit all together came out Amazing.
She lives with Ayra, she’s been in her TikTok videos recently
@@ME-kb8qg I am Ayra Starrs bf
Onome does it
@@ME-kb8qgwho?
Agreed. She has the appearance of a goddess decended directly from the heavens onto our deeply troubled planet to bless the world with her mesmerizing voice and beautifully soulful music.
This girl is STUNNNIINNGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!
No lie I am not going to lie. This Babe is talented and her music is affirmations that blossom in your brain and in your soul, she definitely has longevity. I pray the industry will keep her well.
Couldn’t have been said better 😭💖
She screams confidence 💪💪♥️♥️
Naija baibe na! 🇳🇬
first of all her accentttt 😍😍😍 i love how she’s not really code-switching? my Starr ⭐️
Absolutely. It's something I've always loved about Ayra. She is so natural, doesn't fake anything.
Burna boy has like 3 accents..American, British and Nigerian accent LOL
@@TheChariot99 he fakes his accent I don't get why he don't just be as african as he is and speak wirh his real accent
In London he has british accent, in america it's american accent, in Naij in Nigerian accent. Funny guy@@shalbec3232
@shalbec3232 I'm pretty sure he lived in the UK tho ?
Nigerians will always show out and show off…she’s so confident 🥰
the confident exudes even more because she is speaking like a normal Nigerian without trying to fake an American or European accent. You can see how free she is..
I just love this interviewer, she’s so good at her job asking the right questions and being interactive ❤
Me too. It felt very natural.
I thought I was the only one who noticed
This was a CONVERSATION. There was a fluidity to every question and response, and Ayra killed it. S/O to the interviewer. Loved her energy 🫶🏽
I’d love to see Ayra Starr and Normani on a billboard chart topper together.
Yessss
Yea
I would love that
Yesss
Love you Ayra. I’m an Afro Brazilian and started loving my African side cause of you ❤
Always be proud of the African genes in you, it's a privilege.
Always be Happy of Africa because Africa is not what you watch in your Brazilian TV Because it always Negative because Africans don’t control Brazil so you will never see anything good about African. You have to come to Africa and see how developed it is.
@@Nollywood_Stars_Galleriesyup
I still canot beleive that ayra is 21 an beleivleable so mature.❤❤
Shout out to this interviewer! She needs a raise.
This interview is like a talk between two friends! Loved it. Ayra's energy is unmatched!
My favorite female artist right now 🔥
The best for ALL TIMES though is one & only TYLA from South Africa. She is the best musician in Africa FOR ALL TIMES.
ewww Ty whatt? What does she do, a painter🤣☠️💀
@sandindamae.iwantmetowin5652 I love Tyla's grace and humbleness not to mention she's out of this world gorgeous!
@@sandindamae.iwantmetowin5652 He gave his opinion so shut up and just stream tyla
Thanks Nigeria for Afro beat and the creation of Afro beat, it has put Africa in the map. So proud of Africa.
Lol 😂😂 who must thank you ?
Afrobeats originated in Ghana but we appeciate Nigerians for putting it on the map
@@JustinDraco you wish 😂. Ghanaians are funny
@@JustinDraco nope,Fela kuti did Ghanaians created afro highlife music which Fela took a hint of the highlife sound to complete the afrobeats sound soo yahhh
@@JustinDraco ; Lie; Afrobeats originated in Nja and only in Nja
Guurrrl that face card is craaaaazy!!!🙀😍
Ayra Starr is indeed a star
Just love her. Confident, sassy and so natural. No airs or graces or fake accent.
Love how confidence ayarr star is
Like she so excited
Whether you like it or not, Black is beautiful. I mean just look at her, her posture, the way she talks, and everything about her. I’m from Tanzania 🇹🇿 and I appreciate my Afrikanism
❤❤❤have you seen real bro
Love voice .her confidence, everything.
Her energy is so unique and special. She is really a gem to the whole Afrobeats genre. Love from Uganda ❤️🇺🇬
My respect to the interviewer, having worked with Americans on phone, they don't understand my Nigerian accent no matter how hard I try to feign an American accent. This chick understood every word Arya said with great questions too.
Oh! They do understand, they just claim not to.
Nigerian accent is plain.
@@adaonwuzuruike5576errr... Depends on how many "abi's, shebi's, ba's, oya's, naw's, ehn's, ah's, o's and nko's" that you add to your naija English.😂
@@tok1879 Even though! Even though! 😅
@@tok1879 all the things you listed do not get added when speaking good English.
We only use that when speaking our Nigerian pidgin
They understand, trust coz when they travel abroad, they don't pretend not to
She is so Iconic African Queen❤!!🇳🇬
She look so pretty and amazing👑💚🤍👏
HER SKIN 😍😍😍😍 THAT GLOW!!!! WOOOOW
My favorite girl I love how confident she is she's not over the top not too much sexual songs she's organically herself truly talented and a true classy gorgeous woman and to me she was the real Grammy winner 🏆🏆🏆she's so grateful for the little things shes sooooo perfect in my eyes my Ayra is number 1👑👑👑🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

The real Grammy winner
delusion lol. TYLA is coming for the 2nd one this year!!
@@cliffsworld9926 who cares. We know who’s the winner and that’s all it matters.
@@ME-kb8qgexactly, and it was tyla. thanks for playing 🥰
@@phizzy123 ehhhhh, wrong. Try again
@@ME-kb8qg no need to, tyla is the one with the award in her hand 🤷🏽♀️
Arya starr is so beautiful ❤🎉
That was an awesome interview! It was fun to listen to. Ayra was so kind and generous, thus giving us the chance to know her. Best wishes Ayra!
The lowkey spirituality talk is highkey!!!!!!!!♥️♥️
She's so inspiring. Love her❤🥺
Her confidence is tip notch
She’s glowing god bless her
She gorgeous !!!!! Her skin !!!!!
Ayra star is so talented. She’s awesome
So true .she was Rob of the grammy. But life goes on. She is so beautiful and humble .congrat Ayra .we love you .keep up the good work.. i am so inspired by you. ❤❤❤.
Grammy is useless to Africans, we should stop taking it seriouse. Who are they to tell us how African songs should sound like
She wasn't robbed. 'Water' by Tyla did better than all African songs in the USA, it got to #7 on billboard hot 100, Ayra's Rush didn't even get to #99, Water had more airplay, more streaming. The West bought into Water more then Rush, I prefer Rush. Just like now I prefer 'Commas' but America might prefer 'Truth or dare'.
@@africanstar5814how the hell did it do better? Rush had over a billion views globally, almost doubled “water”. It represented African music unlike the other girl with her westernized pop song. Didn’t deserved it and only won it because it was more of a familiar song to their ears because it was fully English
@@ME-kb8qgYou guys can lie🤣
When did Rush billion views
If you don't have accurate information don't come out to say trash 🗑️
@@ugonnafrancis1789 310 millions views on CZcams, 484 million views on CZcams music, 340 million views on Spotify and that’s just on these 3 platforms. I think you’re trash
She is beautiful
Her skinnn 🥶
