Nigerian Afrobeat songstress, Ayra Starr, has named Burna Boy her top collaboration choice.
Ayra Starr made this known while speaking with Love Island USA star Chelley Bissainthe during a Billboard interview about her nomination for the 2026 Grammy.
While tagging it a moment of reassurance in her career, Ayra Starr said, “I am very grateful that I’m actually a two-time Grammy nominee. The first time I was nominated, it was like, "Oh my God, I got nominated."
“But the second time, I was like, maybe I need to trust God and myself a bit more. I have collaborated with many people, and I still want to collaborate with more people. But everyone knows Burna Boy is like my number one person I want to collaborate with”, she said.
The songstress earned a Grammy nomination for Best African Music Performance for ‘Gimme Dat’ with Wizkid, released in April 2025.
The nominations were announced in November 2025 ahead of the February 1, 2026, Grammy Awards ceremony.
Reacting to the recognition, the singer described the nomination as a reassuring moment in her career.
