Tyla BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Tyla is having a headline-making week that cements her as a key voice in global pop and cements her long-term place in music history. On July 25, Tyla dropped her highly anticipated new four-song bundle WWP We Wanna Party led by chart-targeting singles Bliss and IS IT, already featured in Coca-Cola’s global Road Trip campaign and making waves across digital platforms, as Sony Music and The Music Universe both confirm. Production credits boast P Priime and Sammy Soso, while the much-awaited WizKid feature on Dynamite delivers on the social media buildup Tyla herself fueled with behind-the-scenes teases and a London preview event. The song’s origin traces back to 2022, with Tyla telling fans she pulled it out of the vault and convinced WizKid to finish it this summer.

Social media exploded following the release with fans and industry peers dropping praise, and Vogue’s Instagram captured Tyla herself celebrating her success at a late-night NYC party, new EP in tow. Across platforms, excitement spiked for Dynamite, which Tyla explained on basscatalogue’s latest reel, sharing her motivation to link up with WizKid and how long the song had been in the making. She’s even drawing new listeners globally after her Coke ad, drawing millions of ears to her single Bliss and raising her brand profile in pop culture as well as music.

Tyla’s presence wasn’t limited to the digital world. She made a splash at Barbados’s high-profile Tipsy Festival, with Visit Barbados and Carifesta socials highlighting her as a style and music icon during her stay. That summer festival run also included opening sets at Poland’s Open’er Festival and a standout contribution to the international Smurfs soundtrack. On July 22, Global Citizen and major outlets announced Tyla will join The Weeknd and Shakira as a major billed artist at this year’s Global Citizen Festival in Central Park on September 27, a move that The Music Universe, OkayAfrica, and Business Wire all call another biographically significant milestone in her young but meteoric career.

Recent press connects Tyla’s ongoing trajectory to key career markers: Grammy winner, first African female soloist to chart so high on Billboard’s Hot 100 and Billboard 200, and RIAA gold awards for tracks Push 2 Start and Jump from Tyla+. No controversies or notable negative coverage have surfaced, and industry speculation—though unconfirmed—suggests that with this mixtape, headline festival slot, and savvy branding tie-ins, Tyla is forging a legacy as Africa’s new international pop ambassador.
