Cape Town — South African music star, Tyla, has taken the world by storm recently with her global hit song, Water, which has trended worldwide.
Her newfound fame has led to great international recognition and her most recent interaction was with none other than hip-hop legend, Chris Brown.

While many were proud to see Tyla mingling with international stars, there was some apprehension about her being with Chris Brown, owing to their age gap and his history of domestic violence allegations, The South African reported.
As she continues to make waves with her musical prowess, her unforgettable dance-off with Chris Brown in Paris will remain a milestone in her journey.
Meanwhile Tyla’s success with Water continues to rise as the song reached number 1 on the Billboard US Afrobeats Songs chart, replacing fellow Nigerian star and friends of hers, Rema, and his song “Calm Down.”
She also appeared on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, another milestone that left Mzansi very proud of her.
