2X GRAMMY-WINNING SINGER TYLA ANNOUNCES THE A*POP WORLD TOUR
TAMPA, FL – Today, two-time GRAMMY®-winning global singer and songwriter Tyla announced THE A*POP WORLD TOUR, which will make a stop at Tampa’s Yuengling Center on Saturday, December 5 at 8:00 p.m. The upcoming tour follows Tyla’s 2025 We Wanna Party Tour across Asia, which included sold-out performances in Japan, and the UAE. THE A*POP WORLD TOUR marks her first full headline tour across North America, Europe, the U.K. and Africa.
A*POP is the highly-anticipated second studio album from Tyla has arrived. The 14-track album, which has been teased and coveted for well over a calendar year, and sports the bonafide hits “CHANEL,” “IS IT,” “SHE DID IT AGAIN” and “IS IT LOVE” is available now. Stream it HERE.
This past Friday, Tyla took over Rockefeller Plaza with a headlining performance for the The Today Show’s Citi Summerstage®, bringing A*POP to fans live just hours after its release. She lit up the plaza with performances of “WATER,” “IS IT LOVE,” “THAT GIRL” and “CHANEL.” Tyla also sat down with the Today Show hosts to talk about the new album and the global rollout surrounding its release, while giving viewers a closer look at her newly released Bratz doll. She then took over center court at the 2026 AT&T WNBA All-Star Game in Chicago for show-stopping halftime performances of “CHANEL,” “WATER,” and “SHE DID IT AGAIN.”. Tyla made history as the first international artist to headline the WNBA All-Star Game halftime show in its 30-year history. Tyla also recently teamed up with Vevo for the Official Live Performance of “IS IT LOVE,” released last week, with more performances from the series set to roll out soon. Watch her performance HERE. You can also watch the Vevo music video for the hit single “SHE DID IT AGAIN” featuring Zara Larsson HERE.

ABOUT TYLA
In an era where niche culture has taken priority over monoculture, two-time GRAMMY® winner Tyla has ascended to true and unequivocal global superstar status. With A*POP, asserted and fully aware of her presence in pop music, she presents a project that refuses containment or dismissal. It’s confrontational, candid but fun, and spills authenticity rooted in where she’s from: a country that has always spoken in more than one musical language. Through this language, she reveals her range not just as an African artist, but as a global pop star with an entire world behind her.
Tyla’s journey got off to a historic beginning in 2024, when she won her first GRAMMY® Award, and made Billboard chart history with the three-time RIAA® Platinum smash hit “WATER,” and the release of her seminal debut albums, TYLA and TYLA+. The set produced another Hot 100 and GRAMMY®-winning hit, “PUSH 2 START,” and sent seven songs to the U.S. Afrobeats chart, including two No. 1s. The campaign made TYLA the highest-charting African female soloist on the Billboard 200. With her highly-anticipated second go-round, A*POP, Tyla picked up where she left off. “CHANEL,” one of the album’s standout singles, was an immediate pop sensation. It topped the U.S. Afrobeats chart and earned over 150 million video views, while Tyla’s follow-up effort, the Zara Larsson-assisted, Y2K-inspired “SHE DID IT AGAIN,” became a disruptive moment, and amplified Tyla’s commitment to the pop star realm. “IS IT LOVE?,” the album’s third single, earned Tyla her record fourth No. 1 on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats chart. A*POP is available now.
