Tyla's Triumphs: Grief, Grammy Win, and Global Takeover | Pop Star's Defining Moments

Tyla BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Tyla has taken over headlines and social media in a whirlwind of
major personal and professional events these past few days. Just as
September began, she shared deeply emotional news with her 12
million Instagram followers: her beloved grandmother had passed
away. Tyla posted a heartfelt tribute thanking her for the love,
stories, and for shaping her into the woman and artist she is
today. Fans rallied around her with an outpouring of support and
condolences across platforms, echoing the sentiment that her
grandmother's influence extended far beyond their family circle.
She credited her with introducing her to Zulu heritage and
instilling discipline and resilience, a story she’d previously
told, revealing how her grandmother made her sing a song 20 times
to perfect it. This personal loss weighed against one of the
busiest and brightest moments of Tyla’s career.

Only days later, Tyla’s star power was immutable as she graced the
new cover of V Magazine. According to both the feature and her
interview, Tyla celebrated her most defining year yet: breaking US
Billboard records, headlining massive European festivals—including
a recent set at Roskilde—and winning her first Grammy for Best
African Music Performance. She described the last months as a
period of accelerated growth, stating, “I just want to be a
rockstar, you know?” and emphasized her intent to share more of her
story through music, channeling her life’s recent turbulence and
triumphs into upcoming releases, including her highly anticipated
single Chanel set to drop this fall.

Music releases have been relentless: Tyla dropped her second EP WWP
We Wanna Party alongside a viral video for her song Is It, which
has already climbed to nearly eight million views on YouTube within
a week of release. Recent private listening parties in London and
Berlin gave select fans early access to new tracks, sparking
further social media buzz. She’s been candid and playful online—a
candy pink latex mini dress Instagram post sent fans into a frenzy,
drawing comparisons to Barbie, and her comment sections are flooded
with the rallying cry We Wanna Party in anticipation of her
upcoming tour.

Speaking of which, the tour is making waves. The We Wanna Party
Asia Tour begins in Tokyo on November 11 and will make stops in
Bangkok, Hong Kong, Manila—where she’ll perform at SM Mall of Asia
Arena—and finally Singapore. Ticket presales for these shows have
been rapid-fire events, with fans clamoring for seats across the
continent. Her December Manila show was even flagged by local media
as the city’s can't-miss concert, sharing the bill with other
international stars like Doja Cat and Rich Brian.

On the collaboration front, Tyla was just announced as a featured
artist alongside Nile Rodgers on Måneskin’s Damiano David’s new
single Talk to Me, set to premiere September 11. Tyla said she
“instantly fell in love” with the record’s nostalgic vibe and
teased her fans—Tygrs—that they’re going to love this new
sound.

In summary, Tyla is laying the blueprint for a long-lasting global
pop persona: chart-topping records, fashion icon moments, sold-out
headline tours, and candid, relatable moments of vulnerability.
With the announcement of her new single, the Asia tour buildup, the
heartfelt loss, and a buzz-worthy upcoming collaboration, Tyla is
dominating entertainment headlines—and for all the right
reasons.
