Ayra Starr claims “not aware of Asake, Seyi Vibez rivalry,” in collab with them for musical reasons
By Jeph Ajobaju, Chief Copy Editor
Singer Ayra Starr has denied knowledge of a rivalry between fellow singers Asake and Seyi Vibez, saying she loves the artistry in both of them and chose to collaborate with them for sonic reasons.
Fans of Asake and Seyi Vibez always argue about who is better between the singers but there is yet to be a public spat between the guys themselves, as in Wizkid versus Davido.
Ayra Starr was asked in a recent interview with The Beat FM Lagos whether her decision to work with both Asake and Seyi Vibez on her sophomore album The Year I Turned 21 was intentional because of their rivalry.
She replied: “I didn’t put Asake and Seyi Vibez on my album because of their rivalry. I didn’t know about the rivalry between Asake and Seyi Vibez. I just love both of them as artistes.
“I’m really big on sonics; what would sound good sonically. My team is always thinking of the business side but I’m just thinking of who would be sonically compatible with me. And I’ve been listening to Seyi Vibez’s Different Pattern for a very long time.
“So I decided to work with him. When I sent the record to him, he sent his verse almost immediately. They were very quick with it. Asake, too, he sent me his verse in three days.”
