Billionaire songstress Rihanna believes that Nigerian singer Ayra Starr has the potential to dominate both the male and female sides of the music industry. According to Rihanna, Ayra’s deep voice appeals to both boys and girls.
The Barbadian superstar expressed confidence that Ayra Starr would make a significant impact on the global music scene with her unique voice.
Ayra Starr shared details of her conversation with Rihanna during their meeting at the Authentic Woman event in the UK in a recent interview with Billboard.
The ‘Rush’ crooner said: ” We [Rihanna and I] got to hang out after the event. Just spending time with my idol, the person that inspired me to do all of this, was the most amazing thing. She gave me so many pointers and advice.
“I love my voice, but I know I have a very deep voice like, ‘Is that a man?! Is that a boy?!’ Rihanna was like, ‘You have the type of voice that can take over the males and take over the girls. You are here to take over both sides of the industry.’
‘And I was like, ‘You think so?’ She’s like, ‘Yes! Yes!’ I was like, ‘Thank you so much!’ She was like, ‘That’s your superpower.’ I was like, ‘I never thought of it like that. Thank you.’ She just put everything into perspective for me.’
