Background and release

At an exclusive fan listening event in Berlin in July 2025, Tyla unveiled two songs, "Dynamite" and "Chanel", originally intended for inclusion on her second extended play (EP), WWP . [3] The EP was released on 25 July 2025, but did not include "Chanel". [4] [5] During an interview with Variety in August 2025, Tyla said "We Wanna Party is meant to be a bridge to the album". [6]

She previewed the song during her set at the Global Citizen Festival on 27 September 2025, in Central Park, New York. [7] [8] On 15 October 2025, Tyla announced on social media that "Chanel" would be released on 24 October 2025, and shared a pre-save link. [8] A music video was released on 24 October 2025. [9] [10]

Controversy

American rapper Yung Miami, formerly of City Girls, took to Twitter to accuse Tyla of stealing her song. [11] "This girl really ran off with my song, and I don't know how to feel about it. Mind you, I played this song for her," she wrote on Twitter, accompanied by thinking emojis, before adding, "Like… bitch, I'm confused!" When a fan commented that Yung Miami had delayed releasing her own version of the song, she shot back, "Don't matter it's my mf song!!!" She also mentioned that she had played the track for Tyla.
