ABOUT THE SONG
It’s a feminist song that speaks about the neapolitan culture, with soccer references
THE ARTIST
Miriam Ayaba è una giovane artista della scena urban italiana che trova nella mescolanza di culture il suo vero background. Anche il suo nome d’arte è un mix che miscela il suo nome effettivo con “AYABA”, un vocabolo della lingua Nigeriana degli Yoruba che vuol dire “regina”.
