Don Jazzy’s newest signee, Ayra Starr, debuts new era with the lead single from her highly anticipated debut album, 19 & Dangerous. The track, produced by London, was released on July 31, 2021.
Leading the new era with force and artist individuality, “Bloody Samaritan” is a fierce track which emphasizes on living life. The track is a perfect blend of pop, afrobeat and amapiano, with a catchy hook and bridge. Ayra outdid herself with the vocals on the song, with lyrics that will ‘ginger’ the listeners. Underlined with a strong 808 and a melodic trumpet, it encompasses the coming-of-age vibe that will certainly make an appearance in the album.
Ayra also cowrote the track with London, creating a Gen-z summer anthem as she sings out;
“Vibe killer
Ayra Starr
Bloody samaritan
Protect my energy from your bad aura
Na my pastor say I be my healer
Everything I desire
I go receive
My rhythm
Flow like a river
If you get yawa
Come on go and sit down
I go just para
Comot my jigga
I go just dey
Follow my dreams”
Being one of the fastest rising new African star with over 23 million global streams, Ayra is ready to take over the industry. Ayra Starr said: “I love this track because I was unapologetic and assertive on it – something people
my age often struggle to be, and I want my fans to feel that way when they listen to it, liberated of
societal standards and expectations.”
With hit tracks like Away and Sare, Ayra Starr has a sound that is here to stay.
