South African singer Tyla has won her second Grammy beating four others, including three Nigerian artists, to take the Best African Music Performance award.
The 24-year-old won for her song Push 2 Start, which was preferred over tracks by Ayra Starr, Burna Boy and Davido, as well as Ugandan singer Eddy Kenzo.
Tyla bagged the same prize in 2024 for her global hit Water, also beating a host of Nigerian stars.
Reacting to her win after the awards ceremony in Los Angeles, she exclaimed: “This is insane, this is so insane! I’m just so lucky to be here and I’m so proud to be African. I’m excited to see more of us over here.”
