Starrgirl’s chart run keeps growing. Ayra Starr’s third album has debuted at No. 2 on Spotify’s Top Albums Debut Global chart, and in the US, it opened at No. 6 on the platform’s Top Albums Debut chart.
Both debuts add to a run that already includes a No. 1 finish on Apple Music Nigeria, chart placements across 82 countries on Apple Music, and Ayra’s first-ever Top 30 entry on the US iTunes Album chart. The Spotify debut numbers now round out the picture across the two biggest streaming platforms, confirming that Starrgirl’s early momentum isn’t confined to one service or one region.
For an album built to push Ayra beyond the boundaries of a single sound and a single market, cracking the top 10 of Spotify’s US debut chart is a particularly telling marker. It places Starrgirl among the strongest global album debuts of the week, and it does so in a market where Afrobeats full-length projects have historically had a harder time breaking through on pure chart placement.
