On their new collaboration “Girl Next Door,” South African pop icon Tyla and Afrobeats sensation Ayra Starr join forces. This is the first time that two of Africa’s most promising up-and-coming female musicians have worked together.
P.Priime, a Nigerian producer who has collaborated with Wizkid, Omah Lay, and Bad Boy Timz, is responsible for the mid-tempo Afrobeats track. The song’s two strong female heroines caution their male counterpart not to abandon them for “some girl next door” with no nonsense. Tyla yells, “I’m telling you, don’t screw this up. They’re spoiled for choice and secretly wish they were you.
After finishing up their new track “Girl Next Door,” Tyla remarked, “I truly liked working with Ayra Starr.” She’s really gifted as an artist, and I feel that our combined efforts resulted in something quite remarkable. When will everyone finally get to hear it?
The follow-up to Tricky Stewart’s GRAMMY-winning production of “Been Thinking,” “Girl Next Door,” is due out soon.
