Review

Get ready for a wild ride with Ayra Starr’s sophomore album, 'The Year I Turned 21.' Dropping in 2024, this album showcases her growth like no other, diving deep into the experiences of grief, heartbreak, empowerment, and the ups and downs of maturing. It’s a vibrant mix that feels intensely personal, made even richer by Starr's honest and raw lyrics that totally capture the unpredictability of becoming an adult.

The album’s sound is a beautiful, eclectic blend of Afrobeats, R&B, and amapiano, really showing off her diverse style. Ayra’s voice shines as she delivers standout tracks like "Commas," a nod to her gratitude and spirituality, and "21," a moving ballad about self-definition. The collaborations on this album are stellar, featuring artists like Asake, Anitta, Coco Jones, Giveon, Seyi Vibez, Rvssian, and Rauw Alejandro, adding even more depth to an already dynamic project. Despite a few hiccups, like the slightly jarring inclusion of "Santa," this album solidifies Ayra Starr’s spot as a true rising star in the music scene. - Sienna
