Ayra Starr – Amin

Rising Nigerian singer-songwriter, Ayra Starr under the imprint of Mavin Records delivers the label’s first long length project of 2021 and as well her debut studio album dubbed ’19 & Dangerous’.

’19 & Dangerous’ houses eleven well-crafted songs with a single guest slot which makes way for Warner Music artist Ckay on track six titled ‘Beggie Beggie’

The new project was worked on by producers like Don Jazzy, London, Louddaaa and the legendary Sir Victor Uwaifo’s descendant, Andre Vibez.

Lastly, all eleven tracks on the project was mixed and mastered by the talented Johnny Drille.

Amin is the eleventh song on the album which draws the curtains to a close on the beautifully crafted body of work.

Amin’ means ‘amen’ in Islam, and also in Yoruba, which is one of the native tongues in Nigeria. I wrote this song last year before I ever knew what it meant. It was just something I wrote and just recorded. But now, listening to the song, it speaks so much to me. It’s just like, ‘Don’t let the fame take you away. Just always pray for what you want.’ It’s also like my future self is speaking to me in the verse. It’s like, ‘Do you really want it all? Say you have it all. Say you have all the things you want. Do you really need it?’ Because I remember when I was younger, wanting and that. Then, growing up, you realise life is not about that. Life is not about these materialistic things. It’s just about love and just who you love.”
