At just nineteen, Nyrae Arabia is proving she’s more than just another upcoming act—she’s the real deal. Straight out of Brooklyn, Nyrae is already building a name for herself with a sound that mixes the soul of R&B with the bounce of Hip Hop.
Her new single, “Pancakes In The Afternoon,” is currently out on all platforms, and trust me, this one sweet die. Instead of giving the usual sad heartbreak vibe, Nyrae flips the story of a toxic relationship into something playful and catchy. The song has that Tems-like feel—smooth, soulful, and captivating—yet it’s fresh in its own way.
What makes it even madder is her background. Music dey her blood—her uncle is Masta Killa of Wu-Tang Clan, and she even has family ties to Marvin Gaye. For hardcore music lovers you know what it means to come from that kind of lineage, you sabi say talent no be by mistake.
For Nigerians that enjoy vibes from artists like Tems, Ayra Starr, or even SZA, Nyrae is one name you should not sleep on. Add her to your soul or R&B playlist, and you’ll see why she’s being called one of the brightest young voices out of New York.
