    Ayra Starr’s sophomore album, ‘The Year I Turned 21,‘ has reached a remarkable milestone by surpassing 600 million streams on Spotify. This achievement further cements her status as one of the leading young artists in Afrobeats and beyond.

This accomplishment positions the album for legendary status, as it continues to make waves both locally and internationally.

    Ayra Starr’s growing influence and success highlight her unique artistry and ability to connect with a global audience.

    Recall, Ayra Starr recently opened up about her love life in a candid interview with “Dazed Magazine,“ revealing that she has never experienced being in love, despite often being labeled a “lover girl” due to the themes in her music.

    “I want to fall in love. I wrote Lagos Love Story about what love would look like if I was,” Ayra Starr shared. “I am a lover girl deep in my heart, but I’m just very strong-headed about it. I actually have never been in love.”

    The “Commas” singer further explained that she has never been in a fully committed relationship, even though she has had “certain situations” in the past. “I’ve put myself out there and tried to see what’s there, but I don’t think I’ve had the time,” she admitted. “I’ve been working since I was 15—modeling, attending university, and now touring.”
