Since the release of her hits single, “Water,” Tyla has baged international fame and won her several awards, including the first-ever Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance in February 2024.
At 22, the South African singer has became the youngest African artist to win a Grammy.
Early Monday morning, July 1, Tyla won the Best New Artist award, beating out other contenders like Ayra Starr, 41, 4Batz, Bossman Dlow, Fridayy, October London, and Sexyy Red.
In her acceptance speech, Tyla said, “This is such a gift to be here. I want to dedicate this one to Africa. I want to dedicate this to all the African superstars before me that didn’t get these opportunities that I’m getting. This is just amazing. Africa to the world guys.”
Tyla also won the award for Best International Act, surpassing artists like Asake, Ayra Starr, Aya Nakamura (France), and others.
KanyiDaily recalls that Tyla previously won the inaugural Best African Music Performance category at the 66th Grammy Awards.
