Courtesy image Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Ayra Starr is getting her hair blow-dried when she casually mentions that she has a plane to catch in an hour.
It is less than 48 hours before release day, and our conversation has already been moved around to accommodate her recovery from surgery (the specific reason for which she has not disclosed). Somewhere between answering questions, getting ready, and preparing to travel, Starr admits she initially felt pressure to “push, push, push” before accepting that “I can’t do anything more than my body will allow me.”
