Grammy-winning South African pop star, Tyla, has relished her recent collaboration with Nigerian Afrobeats powerhouse, Wizkid, revealing that the song Dynamite was recorded three years ago before she blew up.

In a recent interview with Capital Xtra, London, Tyla explained that she had been dancing to the demo in her room for years, hoping that it would come out one day.

“I was new when I linked up with Wizkid. A lot of people didn’t know me. I didn’t expect him to be down for a session, but he was. He liked some of the stuff I played him, and we made Dynamite. I’ve been sitting on the demo for three years, dancing to it every day in my room and hoping one day I would get to drop it,” Tyla said.

She noted that Wizkid has done so much for African music on the global stage.

“Wizkid has done so much for the culture, pushing our music and bringing eyes towards our creatives back home. He is just the best. I don’t think he has one bad song. He’s too good. I admire how talented he is. He has evolved throughout the years,” she added.

Tyla gained popularity in 2023 after her hit song Water became a global sensation.

In 2024, she made history as the first winner of the maiden Best African Music Performance category at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards.
