She noted that this was one of the reasons she was obsessed with Mavin star Ayra Starr. She said the young singer reminded her so much of her early days.

Tiwa added that the fast-rising diva, known for her showy outfits, has defied Nigerians' criticism of her provocative fashion by continuing to excel in the global music arena.

"I love Ayra [Starr]. I'm obsessed with her. She's amazing and genuine, too. It makes me emotional because when I started, I got criticised a lot for dressing too sexxy and my lyrics being too risky.
"So, seeing someone, Ayra now…If I see her wearing the short skirts, as they say, I'm like, 'Make it shorter.' And she looks amazing, she's extremely talented. Yeah, she's a star."
