South African musician Tyla has done it again. The global star has won the Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance for her hit single PUSH TO START, earning her second win in the category at the Grammy Awards.

She first took home the award in 2024 for her breakout global smash WATER a record that introduced her amapiano-inspired sound to international audiences and helped broaden the global reach of African pop music.
PUSH TO START has been widely praised for its infectious rhythm and seamless fusion of African sounds with contemporary pop, allowing the song to resonate far beyond South Africa. Despite strong competition from artists such as Burna Boy, Davido feat. Omah Lay, and Ayra Starr feat. Wizkid, Tyla’s artistic growth and global impact stood out.
Tyla’s continued recognition at the Grammys highlights her consistency and the expanding influence of African music worldwide. Her second win not only reflects her personal journey but also reinforces Africa’s growing presence in shaping the global music landscape.
