Aya Nakamura: 'AYA,' Inspiration, and Coping During the Pandemic | Apple Music Awards 2021

Apple Music’s Artist of the Year - France, Aya Nakamura, never dreamed of becoming an international superstar, but the 26 year old French pop singer’s authentic melodies and effortless charisma have made her hard to ignore. Her 2021 hit single, “Bobo,” and third studio album ‘AYA’ have captured the attention of the world, and the interest of collaborators like Major Lazer and Maluma. No matter how high this star flies, she plans to aim her focus on her roots, and sing for the people who made her who she is today. She connects with Mehdi Maïzi to reflect on the past 12 months.
