Interview with Ayra Starr after Pyramid Stage performance

It was amazing. I'm so grateful. I can't wait to come back. You know, as a performer, I always feel like I can do like I want to do more. I want to do more. Like I want to go crazy. I give me two hours on that stage. I feel like it's our time. Everybody has been popping in the continent for so long as like, forget what you're hearing now. It's been generations of hard work from talented artists that came way before me and way before, like even like Whiskey and Bernard, just amazing artists that you know that. That worked so hard to build what Afrobeat is today. And I feel like it's our time, you know, when it's our time, it's our time. And that's just what it is. It's our time. If I didn't get to see like women like Beyoncé headline, I wouldn't think I would be able to do it, you know? So representation is so important because we have talented young women that are watching this at home, even there, and just being seen somebody just like them on stage changes a lot. So, yeah, I think it's very important.
