Ceeza Milli opens up about knowing Ayra Starr before her Mavin Records era.
If you’ve been around Nigerian music long enough, stories like this always stop you mid-scroll. Ceeza Milli has revealed that he knew Ayra Starr before the spotlight, before the deal, before the world started singing along. And honestly, it feels like one of those quiet full-circle moments the industry loves to hide in plain sight.
According to Ceeza Milli, their connection wasn’t even music-first. Ayra Starr was his ex-girlfriend’s school daughter. Just life doing its thing. From there, they started working on music together, casually, organically. No pressure. No big promises. Just a talent meeting opportunity in a small room somewhere.

Back then, Ceeza Milli says Ayra was recording with him, learning, growing, and finding her sound. He even posted her on his social media at the time, the kind of post people scroll past without knowing they’re watching history warm up. She wasn’t signed to his label, but the support was real.
In the same breath, Ceeza Milli gave props to Mavin Records and Don Jazzy for what they’ve done with Ayra Starr’s career. And that part matters. It’s not bitterness or chest-beating. Just respect. Seeing someone you once worked with win, and acknowledging the system that helped them soar.
Stories like this remind you that the music industry is smaller than it looks. Ceeza Milli crossed paths with Ayra Starr early, and now both names sit comfortably in conversations about Nigerian pop culture and growth.
