Background and release
Shortly after completing high school in 2019,[1]Tyla released her debut single "Getting Late".[2] She directed the music video and promoted it via social media.[3][4] The music video gained popularity in South Africa as it garnered over 930,000 views on YouTube in a month[5] and piqued the interest of executives at Epic Records.[6] In 2021,she signed a recording contract with Epic and left South Africa for the first time to attend a songwriting camp in Dubai organized by the label.[7] Over the following two-and-a-half years,she attended recording sessions in her native South Africa,Ghana,Tanzania,Jamaica,Nigeria,the United States and the United Kingdom to develop formal studio-recording experience and to write and record her debut album.[a] During this time,she met Sammy SoSo,Ari PenSmith,Believve and Mocha Bands,who became her collaborators and did most of the production and songwriting on the album.[7]
In October 2023,Tyla told Capital Xtra that she had been recording her album for over two years and that it would mostly be "popiano",a portmanteau of amapiano and pop music.[4] She coined the term "popiano" to define her musical style.[9][10] She fused western genres with African influences,[10] and told Billboard,"since amapiano songs were eight to ten minutes long,I wanted a three minutes normal format of an R&B song or a pop song".[11] In March2024,Tyla told Rolling Stone that she named her debut album after herself to introduce her musical style to new listeners,and explained that the self-titled name reflects the effort she has invested over time,despite misconceptions that her rise was recent.[12] She called it an "experimental album".[13]Tyla was recorded at Geejam Studios in Port Antonio,Miloco and Sarm Studios in London,ACP Studios in Cape Town,SessionsAtlanta Studios in Atlanta,Criteria Studios in Miami,Home Away From Home,Just for the Road and Sony Music Studios in Los Angeles.[14]

Composition and lyrics
Tyla is an amapiano,pop and R&B record that contains elements of Afrobeats;[28] a sound Tyla calls "popiano".[29] The 41-second-long opening track "Intro",consisting of a recording that plays in the background while people converse,was produced by South African record producer Kelvin Momo.[30] In an interview with Nandi Madida on Africa Now Radio with Nandi Madida for Apple Music,she stated that she wanted to kickstart the album with a raw and proudly South African sound.[31][32]
"Safer" is melodic track with syncopated log drum and chants as an expansion.[33] "Water" is a pop and R&B infused amapiano song.[34][33] "Water" was described as a song about a woman's longing to feel a squirting climax.[35] On the pre-chorus,Tyla sings,"can you blow my mind? Set off my whole body?" While breaking down the meaning behind the lyrics with Genius,she said it is about her telling a guy to show her what he got to offer.[36] The fourth song on the album,"Truth or Dare",it is an amapiano recording,[37][38] which has been described as a slab of Afrobeats by Joshua Minsoo Kim of Resident Advisor.[33] It is an R&B-infused track,[39][40] characterized by guitar riffs,Tyla's "candied" vocals,as well as rhythmic and bass-heavy percussion.[41] In the chorus,she sings about remembering when her then-lover would mistreat her and dares him to catch up.[42] The seventh song on the album,"Butterflies",is a fusion of hip hop,pop and R&B that is similar to the musical style of Ariana Grande.[43] Throughout the verses and hook of "Breathe Me",her voice is more forceful,but when she reaches the phrase "breathe me",she sings it in a way that properly highlights the concept of the song.[44] "No.1" contains vocals from Tems that balances Tyla's lighter vocals. Lucas Martins of Beats Per Minute described the vocal delivery as unsubtly Aaliyah-inspired performances.[29]
"On and On" blends old-school R&B,amapiano and pop.[45][46] On "Jump",she sings:"they ain't never had a pretty girl from Jo'burg,see me now and that's what they prefer".[47] It was described as "the most trap-adjacent production" on the album by Lucas Martins of Beats Per Minute and it includes vocals from Gunna and Skillibeng.[29] "Jump" is a fusion of Afrobeats,dancehall and hip hop with echoing log drums and percussion that define the amapiano genre.[48][49]Airhorns are introduced in the chorus,[50] along with the party chant,"haibo!",a Zulu language expression for shock or disbelief.[51][52] "Jump" opens with an intro by Skillibeng,who compliments Tyla and calls her "an original gyal".[40] She sings the first verse with braggadocio[53] and the single-syllable chorus in a rap-sung cadence. In the second verse,Gunna promises to fulfil Tyla's desires and buy her jewellery.[54] The song ends with an outro by Skillibeng.[55] "Art",the tenth song on the album,[56] has been described as "the most erotic song Tyla has released since "Water"" by Joshua Minsoo Kim of Resident Advisor.[33] Martins of Beats Per Minute wrote that "Art" showcases Tyla's most subtle vocal performance[29] and smooth ad-libs,[56] as she expresses her desire to become of a work of art for her love interest.[57] It is followed by "On My Body",a deep house-influenced recording featuring vocals partially sung in Spanish by Becky G.[58] On the song "Priorities",she illustrates her figurative message of spreading herself too thin over a ghostly highlife guitar.[50] The thirteenth song on the album,"To Last" is a fusion of R&B and amapiano track that features Tyla's smooth,whispered vocals and synths with an aspect of sadness as she sings:"You never gave us a chance,it's like you never wanted us to last".[59][60] The album closes with a remix of "Water",with auto-tuned vocals from Travis Scott.[61]
