10 May 2024
GRAMMY-nominated global Afrobeats superstar Ayra Starr unleashes her poignant new single ‘Bad Vibes’ ft. Seyi Vibez - out now via Mavin Records.
The song follows her feel-good anthem ‘Commas’, which exceeded 100 million streams across all platforms in just two months and spent 5 weeks on top of the UK Afrobeats Chart. Both tracks will feature on Ayra Starr’s much-anticipated new album, “The Year I Turned 21”, which is out on 31 May.
Arriving ahead of the new album, ‘Bad Vibes’ showcases Ayra Starr’s wise and mature nature alongside her signature, self-assured Afrobeats roots. Produced by Mystro, and featuring renowned Nigerian wordsmith Seyi Vibez, ‘Bad Vibes’ hears Ayra Starr contemplating the pressures that come with success, and doubling down on her commitment to protecting her energy from ‘bad vibes’. Spotlighting Ayra Starr’s contemplative and introspective lyricism, “gave me the world but it’s heavy on my palms”, backdropped to an ethereal, smooth rhythm, Ayra Starr soars across the cosmos, shaking off the ‘bad vibes’ of those coming into her orbit.
The forthcoming album “The Year I Turned 21” is Ayra Starr’s coming of age record, showcasing her most personal storytelling, alongside infectious empowering anthems. Themes of growth, love, heartbreak and realising your power permeate the record, powered by a newfound artistic maturity that came from the whirlwind year the Gen Z singer-songwriter has had.
