Ayra Starr Premieres New Song “Who's Dat Girl” featuring Rema on BBC Radio 1
Nigerian singer-songwriter Ayra Starr premiered a new song “Who's Dat Girl” on BBC Radio 1's New Music Show.
This time, she teamed up with Nigerian rapper Rema on the track.
The song is the follow-up to “Hot Body”, which was released back in July.
It was written by Divine Ikubor, Nilusi Nissanka, Nwamu Francis Chukwudubem, Osamudiamen Edward Ekunwe, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, and Promise Ekpe. Produced by Ragee and The Elements.
Ayra Starr told BBC Radio 1 about the song, “Everybody knows like Rema, it was like my dream collaboration. and has been my dream collaboration for years. So every time, every time people will ask me, What's your dream collaboration?', was like Rema Boy. And we had this song, like, we started making the song last year, to be honest. And one of my another, Promise, played it for Rema. I was like, 'Do you want to jump on it?' And he loved it, and he hopped on it. So we've had it for maybe four months, five months.”- She continued, “The thing is that when I was recording the song. It was like, I really want a male voice on it that the girls would love and the guys would love. And someone that would just bring that like vibe to it. And it was a no brainer for it to be Rema. So remember, like my first choice was, like, let's ask him. If he doesn't like it, which is fine, because he's my friend. So if he doesn't like it, he just tell me straight up. So we sent it to him, and he loved it.”
