As one of Nigeria’s phenomenal artistes exporting Afrobeats to a global audience through her sensational music, singer cum songwriter, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, known professionally as Ayra Starr, has been announced as a special guest on Chris Brown’s ‘11:11’ tour of the United States.

The Grammy-nominated singer will be joined by R&B star Muni Long as Chris Brown will be performing in 26 cities across the United States and Canada.

Since breaking into the mainstream with her self-titled extended play, Ayra Starr, the singer has soared to commercial success. Her debut album 19 & Dangerous further showcased her talents as one of Afrobeats finest talents whose music explores a rich blend of Afropop and R&B.

In 2023, her hit single Rush off her debut album enjoyed huge commercial success both in Nigeria and internationally, as she became the first Nigerian female lead artiste to debut on the UK Singles chart. The single has received a diamond certification in France and also earned her first Grammy nomination at the 66th Grammy Awards.

Ayra Starr’s appearance alongside Chris Brown on his tour of North America reinforces her status as one of Afrobeats’ biggest stars. It also underscores Chris Brown’s love for Nigerian music as he is reputed to have collaborated with different Afrobeats stars including Wizkid, Davido, Rema, Fireboy, and most recently Davido and Lojay on Sensational which appeared on his album 11:11 released in 2023.
