Asked about her latest single Ayra spoke fondly of the song saying;
“I consider myself a hard girl void of vulnerability, I would say love songs were cheesy and wouldn’t think of making one but I’ve finally found a balance. I’ve put myself out there and I’m allowing myself to receive and give love through music and it’s safe to say I’ve let my guard down with Rhythm and Blues.”
