About Tyla

Tyla Laura Seethal was born January 30, 2002, in Johannesburg, South Africa, into a mixed-heritage family — Zulu, Indian, Mauritian, Irish — that has shaped both the personal narrative she has spoken about in interviews and the visual identity of the project. She grew up in the southern Johannesburg suburb of Edenvale, attended Curro Waterstone College, and started uploading covers and original songs to social platforms in her early teens, building a small but engaged following that became the early-warning system for the broader breakthrough that was coming. The first proper release was 'Getting Late' in 2019, a single featuring Kooldrink that introduced the Amapiano-and-R&B hybrid sound that would define the rest of the catalogue. The song built steadily across the African continent and got her signed to Epic Records (Sony Music) in 2021. The breakthrough was 'Water' in July 2023 — released as the lead single from the still-untitled debut album, anchored by a choreography video that went viral on TikTok inside a week, crossing into Billboard Hot 100 (peaking at number seven) and onto US R&B and pop radio rotation in the back half of the year. 'Water' became the first solo song by an African female artist to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 in 55 years (since Miriam Makeba in 1968) and won the inaugural Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance at the 66th Grammy Awards in February 2024 — Tyla was the first South African artist to win a Grammy in any category since Soweto Gospel Choir's wins in the 2000s and the youngest African artist to win a Grammy at that point. The self-titled debut album Tyla landed in March 2024 — anchored by 'Water', 'Truth or Dare', 'Butterflies', the Becky G collaboration 'On and On', and the Tems collaboration 'No. 1' — and the world-tour cycle that followed scaled the live operation from theatre and club rooms straight up to mid-cap arena. 'Push 2 Start' arrived in late 2024 as the lead single from the next era. She is signed to Epic Records and Fax Records, writes or co-writes most of her material, and the project is firmly inside the rising tier of working pop-touring artists with a meaningful Amapiano and Afro-pop crossover identity that no other artist on the global pop circuit currently occupies in quite the same way.
