Tyla has revealed the tracklist for her upcoming self-titled debut studio album, which features collaborations with Travis Scott, Gunna and several other noteworthy artists Cooperation. Scott will appear on a remix of her breakout hit “Water” to wrap up the project. The original version of “Water” was the first song by a South African solo artist in 55 years to enter the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, but it dropped last year. The song won her the inaugural 2024 Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance.
In a 2023 interview with Rolling Stone, she said of the song: “When I heard ‘Water,’ I was like, ‘It’s over.'” We have this song. I describe “Water” as the song of the year…it’s the sound of Africa. It’s not just for Africa, it’s for the world… I’m actually the one who brought Africa to the world. “
