Ayra Starr is proving once again that Afrobeats is unstoppable as her song Memories has officially been featured in Marvel’s latest animated series, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, marking yet another major crossover moment for African music.
Marvel is a household name for many, and seeing an Afrobeats anthem in a Spider-Man project is something that would have been unheard of years ago. But times are changing, and Ayra Starr is right at the centre of it.
The song Memories comes from her latest album, The Year I Turned 21, an emotional, genre-blending project that showcases her growth as an artist.
