While Tyla‘s hit single “Water” hasn’t lost its steam yet, she’s quenching fans’ thirst for new music. The South African “popiano” singer performed her new single “On and On” on Colors Thursday (Nov. 30).
Over a warm vanilla background, Tyla’s honeyed, old-school R&B vocals transport viewers back to 1995. “Let’s take it back in time/ Party like it’s ’95/ I just wanna dance all night/ You know that I like it like that,” she croons. “Let the party go on all night long/ We can go on, on and on/ Let’s make the party go on all night long/ Wе can go on, on and on.”
On top of “On and On,” Tyla has also teased new singles “Truth or Dare” and “Butterfly” on her social media ahead of her debut album. “Tomorrow the pre-save for my debut album goes live with 3 new songs… Been working on the full project for 2 years now and I’ve finally gotten to a point where I’m ready to share it with my Tygers top of 2024,” she wrote on X.
Meanwhile, “Water” is still doing swimmingly on the charts. This week alone (in the tallies dated Dec. 2), she earned her first top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Water,” which went No. 1 on Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay. Radio airwaves have been embracing the singer’s pop/R&B/amapiano smash as “Water” rose on Rhythmic Airplay (7-4), Pop Airplay (28-21) and Radio Songs (17-11) as well as Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs (5-4).
