Key Points:
- He says he needed a young Afrobeats star then. The team set out to find one fast
- A fan he followed helped scan uni acts for names. Ayra’s handle came back on that shared list
- He watched her freestyle on drug abuse and felt sure. A first DM failed, so he texted her brother
Don Jazzy has told how he found Ayra Starr. He kept it plain and neat in a talk. The chat came on Echo, where he spoke at ease. He said the goal was clear at that time.

A teen pop voice was the gap at Mavin. So he began a calm, wide search online. He also asked a fan he already followed. “Please check uni acts and share links,” he urged.
The search for a teen star
Names and links soon came in from the scan. Ayra’s Instagram handle sat there in the list. He tapped, watched, and met a stark theme at once. It was a short freestyle on drug abuse harm.
That theme hits Gen Z hard in daily life. Her tone felt warm, firm, and sure as well. He liked the flow, the calm, and the hook. In that short clip, he felt, “She fits the brief.”
Mavin news has stayed hot this month as well. Fans praised fresh charity moves by top stars, like Don Jazzy and other stars who fund aid. That story kept the label in warm chats.
The DM that sealed the link
He sent Ayra a DM right after the view. She did not see it, so he tried a switch. He reached her brother to share the big plan. That move broke ice and sped up the talks.
The tale shows how Mavin spots young acts fast. It starts with a need, then sharp, swift steps. A clear brief, a web scan, and a key clip. Then quick contact and neat, human follow-through.
This comes as the scene stays busy with takes. Talk on star ties grows by the week online. See the swirl around Ubi Franklin’s big three claim. Fans still weigh in with bold, bright views.
Don Jazzy’s path to Ayra now feels like fate. A short clip fit the plan at just the time. One view set off a calm, clean next step. The rest is the rise we all now see.
