Nigerian artist Ayra Starr recently expressed the significant role that preparing Nigerian cuisine plays in her life, particularly during her travels.
The singer, known for her fondness for traditional Nigerian dishes, especially yam and egg, emphasized her preference for home-cooked meals while on the road.
In a conversation with fellow artist Coco Jones, they explored various topics, including their music, career advancements, and their preferred methods of relaxation after demanding days.
“One thing I’m going to do when I’m on the road is to make sure to have a TV show so I can disappear for three minutes to watch it; I’d watch it on my phone,” she said, emphasising the importance of finding small moments of relaxation.
She added, “I also try to eat Nigerian food wherever I am because it keeps me happy. I be like, ‘I don’t want to eat burgers again. Are we eating burgers again?’ please.”Ayra Starr opened up about how cooking puts her at peace, saying, “Sometimes I just want to eat my food, and sometimes I try to stay in serviced apartments whenever I can so that I can cook. I feel like that keeps me and centres me. So even if I’m tired from a show and it’s late, even if it’s 9, 10, or 11 p.m., cooking is relaxing for me.”
The singer emphasized that despite the pressures of her career, her family and friends provide support and help her remain grounded.
She explained, “Thank God for my friends, they don’t leave me alone. We have group chats, and I still try to involve them in my life, but they get it. Sometimes I just disappear when it becomes overwhelming.”
