Tyla’s global appeal has also led to exciting brand partnerships, including her recent collaboration with Nike. A lifelong fan of the brand, she recalls how she admired her older brother’s Nike hand-me-downs as a child, always wanting a pair of her own.
Speaking about her love for Nike, she shared, “Growing up, my brother always got the hand-me-downs from my dad.
They were always Nike, and I wanted them so badly.” Now, she’s not just wearing the brand—she’s representing it on a global scale.

Tyla has never been one to fit into a mold, and she’s determined to keep pushing boundaries. “I knew I wanted to be in pop, but I didn’t want to do it in a normal way,” she explained. By blending influences from Western and African music, she has created a unique sound that resonates worldwide.
She hopes her success will open doors for other African artists, especially women, who want to break free from genre constraints. “I’d like for us to be able to exist in every space as artists—to create what we want and be recognized for it, without it being watered down into one thing.”
