Ayra Starr said, ” Yes, I can’t remember it all. I was just looking at her. You know people say you don’t meet your idols, I’m glad I met mine. It gave me so much affirmation and I just felt this is somebody I looked up to, before doing this, and now she knows me. She knows even my movements, how I sing because she loves music, she loves Afrobeats so much. She knows how to pronounce my name “Oyinkansola”. She knows how to pronounce it very well. I was wowed. I told her and she was like I knew. She’s a beautiful person. I love her so much.”
