Spotify, an online music streaming platform has announced Nigerian singer, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, known popularly as Ayra Starr, as the latest RADAR Global artist.
The rising star, born and raised in Nigeria is the newest
addition to Spotify’s marquee global emerging artist program.

music and provide a platform to highlight influential female creators) to being
listed as a featured artist in the COLORSxStudio campaign via Spotify Africa’s
RADAR partnership, and most recently joining RADAR Africa in May 2022, Ayra now
takes it to the next level as RADAR Global’s newest artist.

RADAR Global playlist as well as release special content on Spotify, including
a mini-documentary and social content.
The mini-doc, which takes place in Ayra’s hometown, Cotonou
Benin, gives fans special insight into the rising star as she chronicles her
beginnings and more – showing fans a personal look at her journey.
