Instead, she affectionately referred to Tyla as her “home girl” and her “Gee,” showcasing a sense of friendship rather than competition.

Ayra expressed her thoughts on the matter, saying, “Tyla is my homegirl, that’s my Gee.

That doesn’t bother me at all. I don’t care about all of that. Less noise, more music.”

Her focus remains on collaboration and support rather than comparison, noting the need for unity among African artists.

She continued, stressing the importance of collaboration in the rapidly growing Afrobeats genre.

There’s no need for comparisons.”
