Tyla, whose full name is Tyla Laura Seethal, first gained wider attention through amapiano music before expanding her presence across the global pop music scene. Her hit song “Water” helped introduce her music to audiences around the world and became an important milestone in her career.
She later made history by becoming the youngest Grammy Award winner from her country. Since then, Tyla has continued to work with major names across music, fashion and technology. Her growing profile has also made her a regular presence at high profile entertainment and fashion events.
Her connection with the fashion industry includes a campaign with American fashion company Gap. The brand selected Tyla to front its Spring 2024 “Linen Moves” campaign, which combined fashion, music and dance while focusing on originality.
At the 2026 MTV VMAs, Tyla once again brought together her music career and fashion presence. Her blue snakeskin outfit, featuring a low rise skirt and matching top, gave her a distinctive look for the night.
With her upcoming A*POP World Tour ahead, Tyla continues to expand her presence beyond amapiano and into the wider international music and fashion space. Her VMAs appearance is another example of how her public image has developed alongside her music career.
