Clash Music describes Ayra Starr’s Starrgirl as her most assured and wide-ranging album yet, presenting it as a confident exploration of identity, culture and personal growth. Across 16 tracks, the Nigerian artist moves between Afropop, R&B, dancefloor rhythms and introspective songwriting, while retaining a sound rooted in her own perspective.

The review highlights singles including ‘Gimme Dat’ with Wizkid, ‘Tornado’ and ‘Hot Body’, alongside collaborations with Kwn, Leon Thomas, Theodora, Rema and Zayn. It singles out the album’s balance between sensual, upbeat songs such as ‘Dance’ and ‘Ms. Paper’, and more reflective tracks including ‘Misunderstood’, ‘Letter To God’ and ‘Where Do We Go’.
