Tyla
Grammy-Winning South African Singer & Songwriter
Tyla, a South African singer, and songwriter, made a significant impact on the global music scene with her debut single, "Getting Late," in 2021. This led to her signing with Epic Records and setting the stage for subsequent successes. A notable achievement was her 2023 single "Water," which entered the top ten in sixteen countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States. This song also won the inaugural Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance in 2024 and was the first song by a South African soloist to enter the US Billboard Hot 100 in 55 years.
She has been a guest on major television shows such as "The Bianca Show" in Sweden and "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" in the United States. Tyla's musical influences include iconic artists such as Michael Jackson, Aaliyah, Rihanna, Britney Spears, Drake, Cassie, and Wizkid. Her self-titled debut album, which has been eagerly anticipated, is scheduled for release in 2024. She has also been nominated for a BRIT Award, a Soul Train Music Award, a MOBO Award, and two South African Music Awards.
Her achievements extend beyond her own music, as she has collaborated with Victoria Monet and Tink on the EP "Girls Need Love (Girls Mix)" by Summer Walker. Her song "Water" has been certified platinum in various countries, including her home country, South Africa. Tyla's hit song "Water" also broke the all-time Spotify listeners record with 3 million views in 3 days, and she became the youngest person from Africa to win a Grammy.
