Ayra Starr has reiterated her admiration for Rema, a fellow Afrobeats musician whose international fame soared last weekend after being paid $3 million for singing just one song at the wedding of Anant Ambani, son of Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani in India.
Ayra Starr, 22, described Rema, 24, as her closest friend and “GOAT” – acronym for Greatest Of All Time – who inspires her a lot.
“Out of all the famous people I know, who would I say is my closest friend? I would say somebody that keeps inspiring me. And he’s such a good friend of mine and a brother,” she disclosed in a recent interview with Munch Music.
“I wouldn’t say mentor but he’s somebody that’s doing the same thing I’m doing but at the same time, he has been here before me. And he knows how to move and he keeps inspiring me. It’s Rema.
“Shoutout to Rema. That’s my GOAT. That’s my guy. That’s my friend.”
