I’m not aware of rivalry between Asake, Seyi Vibez – Ayra Starr
Afrobeats singer Ayra Starr has denied knowledge of the rivalry between her colleagues, Asake and Seyi Vibez.
While Asake and Seyi Vibez have not had any public spat, there has always been a chill between their fanbases, especially on social media.
In a recent interview with The Beat FM Lagos, Ayra Starr was asked whether her decision to work with both men on her sophomore album, ‘The Year I Turned 21,’ was intentional because of their rivalry and she denied knowledge of the rivalry.
According to her, she decided to work with them because she loves their sonic prowess.
She said, “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 artists.
“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.”
