Ayra Starr is no stranger to shaking things up, and with her sizzling collaboration with Wizkid on “Gimme Dat”, the self-styled celestial being did exactly that.
But it wasn’t just the lyrics that got fans buzzing. In classic Ayra fashion, she joked that Wizkid might be “sick of her”—and here’s why that confession says more about their creative chemistry than any clash.
When Ayra Flipped the Script—And the Internet
Dropped in April 2025, “Gimme Dat” isn’t just another Afrobeats collab—it’s a bold, sensual anthem that flips objectification on its head. Her now-viral second verse left jaws on the floor: “So many people wan lick my stew, so baby chill make I survey your tools… and if I handle your 2 by 2, you fit to scream…”
Even Ayra herself had to laugh—“Hopefully my mom never listens to my second verse,” she quipped.
While some critics labeled the lyrics “too raw,” many fans saw it as a powerful moment of sexual agency, delivered with Ayra’s signature mix of grace and grit.
“Sick of Her”? Nah—More Like Studio Fire
The phrase “Wizkid is sick of me” wasn’t an insult—it was a cheeky nod to their lightning-fast studio session.
“The shortest studio session I’ve ever had in my life is the one with Wiz—it was crazy,” she recalled in a post-release interview.
Nervous but excited, Ayra came into the room swinging. What followed was creative lightning: a hit track, fiery vocals, and verses so sharp they left everyone—including Wizkid—stunned.
Gimme Dat: From Classic Sample to Afrobeats Heat
Built on the bones of Mary J. Blige and Wyclef Jean’s “911”, “Gimme Dat” transforms a heavy R&B hit into a sultry, swagger-filled Afro-fusion banger. Ayra doesn’t just match Wizkid’s cool delivery—she commands attention with a lyrical edge that flips traditional gender dynamics.
This isn’t a duet; it’s a lyrical sparring match—sexy, sharp, and unapologetically audacious.
What It All Means
Let’s be real—Wizkid probably isn’t tired of Ayra Starr. But her lyrics, humor, and boldness could overwhelm just about anyone—and that’s the point.
Their chemistry, captured in a single, blink-and-it ‘s-done studio session, shows the power of instinctual artistry. No drama. Just creative electricity.
