Cop a gander at Tyla!

The rising star shines on the cover of Numéro Netherlands.

Arriving on the heels of her stunning showing at the MET Gala 2024, the feature spread sees the ‘Water’ singer style and profile, while also opening up about her journey thus far.

Waxing candidly, the South African starlet dishes on how she’s navigating fame, winning a GRAMMY, her broader achievements, and more.

Pics and quotes below…

On Winning the GRAMMY for Best African Music Performance:

“I didn’t even know my label submitted WATER for a Grammy. It was the last thing I thought I’d be rewarded this early in my career, but at the same time, WATER winning best African Performance of the year is amazing.”

On Navigating Fame:

“I’m just happy people are listening and watching what I put out. I remember when people didn’t really care, so I feel so blessed. Fame sounds so dramatic, but my supporters are growing day by day, which is what I wanted, but there is definitely a weird side. Just the fact that people can randomly record and take pictures or put words in your mouth, fake quote you and make people believe you’ve said things you’ve never said feels so evil.”

On Which Track From The Album Means Most To Her:

“I would say BREATHE ME. That song makes me cry and songs that makes me cry are my favorite. Every word, melody, instrument, literally every part of that song feels like love. And I love being in love and having someone that loves me. Even though the lyrics “You don’t need no air just breathe me” are so exaggerated, it was the only way to express how I felt when I was in love. Like, all we need is each other, forget everything else.”

On the Highlight of Her Career So Far:

“Every moment has been insane, but probably releasing a that juicy album.”
