Mavin Records signee, Ayra Starr, has revealed how she got signed by the music producer and record label executive, Don Jazzy.
The singer revealed that she got signed the first time she met the record label boss.
She said this after making the cover page for Viper Magazine during an interview that was held on Thursday, December 2, 2021.
According to the singer when asked about how she started writing songs at an early age, she said “I started remixing songs when I was seven or eight, I would remix Michael Jackson songs and I’d put my own words. I’d take it to school and act like this is my song and people would be like “you’re a liar, it’s not yours”. I would put my own words every time. Then I and my brother started writing songs when I was 10 and he was nine. Then when I was 12, my mom got us a guitar so we started properly writing music. A song from my album, I wrote when I was 14 and my brother was 13.”
Also, when asked how she got into the industry she explained that “I used to upload covers on Instagram, then the first time I started to do an original song written by my brother. I uploaded it on Instagram, this is something I was overthinking for like a whole day before I posted and it wasn’t even up to three hours before Don Jazzy sent me a message! He was like “we need to meet up at the studio, just call me” and the rest was history. We met at the studio with my brother.
Ayra Starr further explained that the songs she recorded on the first day were on her EP, two songs on my EP, she said.
