Subsequently, she achieved the same historic chart feat on the Billboard 200 with the release of her self-titled debut studio album, Tyla, which features a plethora of sounds and styles that make Tyla unique and a wide range of guests, including Tems and Travis Scott. The March 2024 album charted a dominant 12 singles on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Chart, including the chart-topping “Water,” which has earned global diamond honors and is the first-ever Spotify song by an African artist to surpass one billion streams. Tyla released a hot new single “Bliss” earlier this month.
