A Year of Continued Success

The Grammy win follows “Push 2 Start’s” success at the MTV Video Music Awards, where it claimed the 2025 Afrobeats category, further cementing the song’s global impact and Tyla’s fast-rising legacy.

Fans Celebrate Tyla’s Historic Grammy Triumph

Fans and public figures alike poured out praise for Tyla following her latest Grammy triumph, hailing the singer as a global star whose success reflects both talent and consistency.
