Why Wizkid Is Sick of Me Ayra Starr Reveals Song’s Hidden Tension

Ayra Starr has always been known for pushing boundaries but her latest collaboration with Wizkid titled “Gimme Dat” might be her boldest move yet. The Mavin Records starlet didn’t just sing a few sultry lines, she brought full-blown heat to the track. And now, in a candid moment that has social media buzzing, she jokingly hints at why Wizkid might just be sick of her.

The two Afrobeat powerhouses recently teamed up for “Gimme Dat,” a track that samples the 2001 hit “911” by Wyclef Jean and Mary J Blige. The song, wrapped in sensual energy and emotional tension, sparked immediate curiosity from fans. But it was Ayra Starr’s daring second verse that became the true talking point. With lyrics so charged she openly said “I hope my mum never listens to my second verse,” Ayra put her boldness on full display.

For those who’ve listened closely, the lyrical exchange in “Gimme Dat” plays like a tug of war. Ayra Starr embodies the assertive, passionate partner demanding attention, affection and desire without apology. Wizkid on the other hand plays the steady lover, reassuring her that she’s the only one. But in between the verses, there’s tension, an emotional overload that fans now jokingly describe as Wizkid being sick of Ayra’s firebrand energy.

Though there’s no real life drama between the two artists, the chemistry in the song feels almost too real. Ayra Starr’s voice drips with urgency and seduction while Wizkid maintains calmness like someone trying not to be consumed by the flames. That balance between emotional intensity and soothing reassurance is exactly what makes the song so addictive and the phrase “Why Wizkid is sick of me” such a perfect reflection of the dynamic.

It’s clear Ayra knew what she was doing. She pushed boundaries not just musically but culturally. In an industry where women are often expected to be coy about their wants, Ayra Starr flips the script. She demands. She teases. She refuses to tone herself down. And even in a joking comment about her own mother being shocked, she makes it clear that the boldness is intentional.

Wizkid doesn’t get overshadowed though. His part of the track is laced with commitment lines that ground the song in realism. He sings about choosing one woman, staying loyal and knowing what he wants. It’s not hard to see why the line “he’s sick of me” became a meme and not an insult. It’s the reaction of a man overwhelmed by a woman who knows her power and isn’t afraid to use it.

Since its release, “Gimme Dat” has been trending not just for its catchy beat but also for the back and forth storytelling between the two. Fans have taken to social media with memes, lyrics breakdowns and even speculation about whether the energy in the studio was more than just music. But for Ayra and Wizkid, it seems like a creative masterclass in making a song feel like a real conversation between lovers caught in a storm.

Whether or not Wizkid is actually sick of Ayra Starr is beside the point. The real story here is how two of Nigeria’s biggest music stars created a track so layered, so real and so magnetic that fans can’t stop talking about it. And if Ayra Starr’s second verse made her mom blush, it’s safe to say the rest of the world is blushing too and hitting replay.
