A Nigeria Afropop star, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, better known as Ayra Starr, disclosed that the reason for her recent poor performance on stage was not unconnected with what she was going through at that time.
The Nigerian superstar defended her alleged poor performance on the latest episode of the Afrobeats Intelligence podcast hosted by Joey Akan.
The singer has heavily bashed some months ago for being a terrible vocalist after videos of her performing live went viral on the internet.
She explained that she could not sing for two months but was still forcing herself to perform.
According to her, “I think for me I was not properly taking care of my voice. I was not doing vocal warm-ups at all.
“Sometimes I’m not even talking at all, then I’m just on stage and I’m shouting and singing. I couldn’t properly sing for like two months. And I was performing every day still with that voice.
“So, people literally were like, Ayra cannot sing. I’m like, it is not as if I can not sing o, I’m going through a lot.”
