The fact that you think sleeping with a woman makes you a man, but that same woman sleeping with you makes her a hoe, is a level of intellectual dishonesty that needs to be studied. You participated in the same act, but somehow you came out a king and she came out damaged goods? Mathematics of misogyny 2026 👏🏽😂

fan wars aside:
- these three women are carrying the african music industry.

@kosysaidit So you’re saying you’ll not love or support her or say it was a good performance if she announces that she lip synced? 🤦🏽‍♀️ Yall are taking lip syncing as a bad thing that’s why you think someone pointing out the truth is hating. She did and it’s ok! Still a good performance

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@itz_r1chard @Shadyrainbow111 It wasn’t live though. It was obviously a different version. Recorded specifically for the ‘live’ performance. Idk why people are making it seem like that’s a bad thing.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@Mrniceguy670091 @Jantaye4L @Fritz_NK Nothing backhanded about my compliment. It was a good performance. I’m able to say that while acknowledging that it was pre-recorded because I don’t think that’s a bad thing. This is show business baby. You do what you have to do.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@Mrniceguy670091 @Jantaye4L @Fritz_NK So you mean if you found out FOR SURE that it was prerecorded, you wouldn’t be able to say she ate? 😂 Two truths can coexist. It’s not a bad thing that it was prerecorded! It’s a big show. Lots of artists do that. She’s still the one singing. It was prerecorded AND she ATE.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@Nunu_dah_femme @AyraStarrCrave @NFL Exactly. Thats not a bad thing

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@itsgiftyyyyy @AyraStarrCrave @NFL So you mean you can’t support your fave until it’s perfect? You mean if Ayra admits that it’s pre-recorded you’ll not be able to say it was good? It’s ok to say it was prerecorded while admitting that it was a good performance. Doesn’t make one a hater. Two truths can coexist.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@AyraStarrCrave @NFL Maybe her voice still isnt where it needs 2 b after her surgery and everythin. Plus there was choreo. It’s the nfl. Lots of eyes on her. Theres a lot of pressure for it to be perfect. You’d be surprised how many ‘live performances’ from artists are prerecorded lol. She still ate

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@Jantaye4L @Fritz_NK Lmao you know you can record inflections in the studio, right? An artist can record a ‘live’ version of a song for ‘live performances’. This was pre-recorded but she still ate

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@david_bretwood @Fritz_NK It’s actually pre-recorded but that’s ok! Overall performance was good. No notes

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@tyisontime And i hate it for Ayra 😢 She’s too talented to be in someone’s shadow allllll the time

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@SarahAsipa Mind u this esthetic is NOT all about short skirts 🤦🏽‍♀️ Its the distressed cutout outfits that Tyla made popular. Ayra joined later in her career. No hate to either of them but it’s unfair to try to rewrite history.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@SarahAsipa Ayra didn’t start dressing like this from her debut 😭 Its easy to associate her with miniskirts because she became known for that IN NIGERIA after a while. But she debuted with crop tops and baggy pants. Occasional short skirts but it was never her brand identity.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@karenaaaax See that’s the thing. Tyla did not debut after Ayra. Just because you didn’t know her doesn’t mean many other people didn’t. She released her first song in 2019 and it did well for a debut. She has had this style since then. Yes it has evolved today but the foundation is the same

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@BizzyBee56 But Ayra is not even dressed in said “style” in this video. Admit it. Ayra did not have this “style” until almost two years into her career

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@thatguyfornow26 @khaira4df That means you weren’t always a fan. If you were, you would know that it wasn’t her style from the beginning and that’s ok. She said it herself that she preferred baggy clothes in the beginning. Yall wanna rewrite history so bad. You want to gaslight the whole world?

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@thatguyfornow26 The fact that ALL the pictures you used are AFTER water makes me wonder if ure trying to set your fave up lmao😭 2 queens can coexist but yall want to rewrite history and it’s unfair. Tyla started this esthetic and u know it. Ayra started with Baggy clothes. Its ok to be inspired

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@sabiboiiiiii The fact that this particular outfit you chose for your example looks like an exact replica of something Tyla wore in 2021 is killing me 😭 Ayra wore this in 2023 by the way. You people want to gaslight the whole world? Tyla did NOT copy Ayra’s esthetic because Tyla did it FIRST.

[Afro Pop @afropopupdates]

@perlaspuss How did she get the inspo from Ayra Starr when she was dressing like that BEFORE Ayra Starr ever started dressing like that? 😭
