Nigerian artiste Ayra Starr has said in a conversation chanced on by Rolling Stone that despite her rising fame, she still lives with her family when she is in Nigeria.
According to the 22 year old musician, being close to her loved ones helps her cope with the pressures of fame.
“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.
The 'Rush' hitmaker in intimate conversation with American singer and actress Coco Jones, shared her experiences navigating fame and the pressures of the music industry.
The two stars, as captured by Rolling Stone, discussed the realities of being women in the limelight, shedding light on the often unseen challenges that come with their careers.
“I feel like it’s always a lot. People only see about 1%, but for an artist, it takes a village. It takes so much to get things done right,” he said.
Talking about what she does to stay inspired and energised for her work, she said sometimes she disappears when it gets overwhelming.
