AYRA STARR & REMA – WHO’S DAT GIRL
Mavin Records’ crown jewels deliver the collaboration the fans have been waiting for.
When two supernovas collide, you don’t just hear it, you feel it. That’s precisely what happens on Who’s Dat Girl, the electrifying new single from Ayra Starr and Rema that dropped today, instantly setting the internet ablaze and positioning itself as one of 2025’s most anticipated releases.
The build-up to Who’s Dat Girl has been impressive. Speculation reached fever pitch following a viral moment at New York’s Global Citizen Festival, where the duo’s charged stage presence sent social media into overdrive. Were they teasing something? The answer came in the form of an audacious Instagram announcement: both artists lifting their shirts to reveal airbrushed portraits of each other emblazoned across their tees. Bold and quite intimate.
Co-produced by Ragee and The Elements, Who’s Dat Girl is a sonic feast that refuses to be boxed in. The track weaves Ayra’s signature sultry confidence through layers of dancehall bounce and R&B silk, all anchored by Afrobeats’ irresistible pulse. It’s sensual without being overstated, playful without losing its edge.
What elevates the record beyond mere collaboration is the palpable chemistry. Ayra and Rema didn’t just trade verses; they challenge each other, their call-and-response building tension that crackles through every bar. His swagger meets her self-assured allure in a push-and-pull that feels competitive and complementary. By the final hook, it’s clear: this is what happens when equals decide to play.
The release couldn’t be better timed. Rema continues his victory lap following the release of FUN, while Ayra Starr rides the momentum of Hot Body, proving once again why she’s one of the genre’s most captivating voices. As labelmates under Don Jazzy’s legendary Mavin Records tutelage, their partnership feels less like calculation and more like inevitability, the natural next chapter for two artists operating at the peak of their powers.
Who’s Dat Girl is a statement. A declaration that Afrobeats’ new guard isn’t waiting for permission to rewrite the rules. With this collaboration, Ayra Starr and Rema are dominating the present, and also, they’re architecting the future of African music on the global stage.
