Tyla's Global Takeover: From Mumbai to Riyadh, the Unstoppable Rise of Pop's Newest Powerhouse

Tyla BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Tyla’s recent streak has been a headline-grabbing display of
international ascendance and pop culture buzz. After conquering the
Grammys earlier this year, the South African superstar is
officially set for her first-ever performance in India. Multiple
Indian outlets have confirmed that Tyla will headline Mumbai’s
Indian Sneaker Festival on December 6 and 7, 2025, sharing the
stage with acts like Lil Yachty, Charlotte de Witte, and Alok. Tyla
herself called the show “incredible” and is clearly eager to tap
into India’s surging sneaker and street culture scene, hinting at
deeper ambitions for a global fan connection. Preview pieces from
Cosmo India and The Shillong Times report that anticipation for her
India debut is massive, and her social media has been flooded with
Indian fans posting about travel and ticket plans.

Barely pausing from that news, Tyla is also confirmed to appear at
the gargantuan MDLBeast Soundstorm 2025 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia,
running December 11-13. With a bill including Post Malone and Major
Lazer, this festival’s global rep is only getting bigger, and
Tyla’s slot strongly signals her status as the first African female
artist of the current generation achieving true “Rihanna-level
crossover,” according to festival-focused outlets like That Grape
Juice. Adding more fuel to her international momentum,
Scrolla.Africa just revealed Tyla will headline Afro Nation
Portugal 2026 alongside Wizkid and Asake, where she’s touted to
perform her smash hit Dynamite with Wizkid—a performance already
hyped as a defining festival moment.

Her onstage presence is drawing just as much press as her bookings.
Footage from Global Citizen’s New York festival last week shows
Tyla delivering festival-first performances of songs like “Is It”
and “Mr. Media,” with coverage from Global Citizen and Black
America Web highlighting her “precision, killer dance moves, and
serenading voice.” Her sets are being cited as highlights among a
star-heavy lineup including Cardi B, Shakira, and Ayra Starr, while
social recap chatter is starting to refer to Tyla as the “Queen of
Popiano.”

On the social and style front, Tyla’s recent campaign as Pandora’s
newest ambassador has taken off, with AOL and ELLE noting her
jewel-studded Coachella debut and the use of shark-tooth charms to
connect with her Tyger fanbase. Instagram and Threads are alive
with fans sharing her fashion and performance clips—her influence
in both music and fashion is spreading fast in pop discourse.

No major Tyla controversies or negative stories were detected in
verified press over the past several days, and her engagement with
fans on social media continues to be overwhelmingly positive. With
announcements stacking up, Tyla’s rapid-fire moves worldwide are
solidifying her as one of pop’s most significant breakthrough acts
of 2025.
