Acclaimed songwriter, Starrah, has finally dropped her own debut album, The Longest Interlude.  Starrah’s album hit streaming services on Wednesday, and although the album only has one feature from Skrillex, it boasts a star-studded lineup of producers including Nile Rodgers, James Blake, Bas, Suburban Plaza, Boi-1da, and more.
