Tyla didn’t let the comment slide. She swiftly clapped back with a humorous yet sharp response:
“You want me to wear a onesie on the beach? Stfu,” she tweeted.
Her reply was met with laughter and support from her followers, who applauded her for standing up for herself.
A Rising Star’s Journey
Tyla, also known for her hit song Water, continues to make waves in the music industry. Her talent and infectious energy have earned her a growing fan base both in South Africa and internationally.
Following the success of her sold-out Johannesburg and Cape Town shows in early December, Tyla added a third stop to her tour. She will perform at the SunBet Arena in Pretoria on Saturday, January 18.
Her Unique Approach to Music
In a previous interview with Elle, Tyla opened up about her music style, describing it as a blend of emotion and rhythm.
“Another thing about South African music: There can be a depressing song, but the beat just makes you wanna dance. So I also like incorporating that in my stuff. While you’re crying, dance and shake your a** at the same time,” she said.
Her ability to combine heartfelt lyrics with danceable beats has become a hallmark of her music, resonating with fans around the world.
Proud of Her African Roots
Tyla has consistently expressed pride in her African heritage, even while acknowledging the challenges she has faced abroad.
In her interview with Elle, she recalled discovering that being African wasn’t always embraced in some circles, particularly in the United States.
“I heard it wasn’t cool to be African in America, and I didn’t really know until I started being on social media in school,” she shared.
However, Tyla noted that attitudes are changing, with people becoming more open to African culture and music.
“I love that now people are showing more love and being more open to it and learning more about it. And just enjoying the music,” she said.
Embracing Positivity
Tyla’s quick wit and self-confidence have made her a role model for many young fans. Her ability to handle criticism with grace, combined with her dedication to celebrating her roots, underscores her rising star power.
As she continues her journey, Tyla remains a proud ambassador for South African culture, blending tradition and modernity in her music and style. Whether on stage or online, she inspires others to embrace who they are unapologetically.
With her upcoming performance at the SunBet Arena, fans eagerly anticipate another electrifying showcase of her talent and love for her heritage. Tyla’s message is clear: stay true to yourself, and don’t let negativity dim your light.
