The record producer made the remark on X in response to a fan who praised his role in Ayra Starr’s career.
“She has most definitely changed my own life too. I bless the day I was shown her Instagram freestyle o. And she has been nothing but a dream Starrgirl,” Don Jazzy wrote.
The Mavin CEO discovered Ayra Starr through her viral freestyles on social media before signing her to the label in 2021.
