Tyla

Tyla—a voice that emerged from South Africa and brought grace and groove to dance floors around the world. Her music has a thump that not only gets your body moving, but also touches your heart.

Tyla Laura Seethal, known simply as Tyla, was born on January 30, 2002 in Johannesburg, South Africa. From the outside she is a young, stylish pop star—but from the inside she is a genre-blending visionary on a mission to take South African culture to the global level.

She primarily works in pop, amapiano, afrobeats, and R&B—but her sound doesn't fit into one tight category. There is softness in her voice, but there is both confidence and sensuality in her lyrics—and it is this contrast that makes her so hypnotic.
