I just disappear – Ayra Starr on how she handles pressure from fame

Nigerian singer Ayra Starr recently opened up about her journey through fame and the demands of the music industry in a candid conversation with American singer and actress Coco Jones.

During a discussion hosted by Rolling Stone, the two artists explored the unique realities faced by women in the spotlight, offering insights into the often hidden challenges that accompany their careers.

Reflecting on her journey, Ayra Starr opened up about the relentless demands of her work. “I feel like it’s always a lot,” she admitted. “People only see about 1%, but for an artist, it takes a village. It takes so much to get things done right.”

She described the toll her hectic schedule takes, especially after a whirlwind year of performing. “I did so many shows last year… sometimes I disappear when it gets overwhelming,” she said, acknowledging her need to retreat and recharge.

Starr explained that despite her rising fame, she still lives with her family, which keeps her grounded. “When I go back home, I’m still living with my family. My brothers might be making noise and playing video games, so the house is still very much full,” she noted, adding that being close to her loved ones helps her cope with the pressures of fame.

Emphasizing her connection to her roots, she revealed that she seeks out Nigerian food wherever she travels, as it provides a sense of comfort and happiness. Ayra also spoke about her creative journey, sharing how, despite the industry’s noise, she stays true to her artistic vision.

“I definitely listen to close people around me, but I know what I want creatively,” she said. “I’ve always had the freedom to create whatever kind of music I wanted.”
