Tyla has released her new mixtape WWP (We Wanna Party). The four-song collection features previously released singles “Bliss” and “Is It,” along with two new songs.
The pop phenom’s steamy new collection kicks off with “Dynamite” featuring Wizkid, which she had previously teased at a fan event along with a song titled “Chanel,” which does not appear on the mixtape. On “Mr. Media,” she takes aim at her critics.
“When I thought of doing a mixtape called WWP, I went back to all my old demos and I remembered the Wiz one,” Tyla told fans at a listening session in London back in July. “And it was still good, like, after three years! I just told him, ‘Let’s finish it because I want to drop it’.”
Tyla debuted “Bliss” back in May then rolled out “Is It” earlier this month. After she premiered the latter, she revealed that the release of WWP was imminent. She dropped a pre-save link for the collection and included the hashtag #TYLASUMMER. “Bliss” was first previewed during her Coachella performance then officially released a few weeks later.
In May 2024, Tyla released her highly-anticipatedself-titled debut LP, which followed the success of her 2023 smash hit “Water.” A Rolling Stone review of the record praised Tyla’s debut, and said the album “shows she’s up to the challenge; amapiano probably couldn’t ask for a more effective ambassador.”
The South African star nabbed her first Grammy with “Water,” for Best African Music Performance. At the time, Tyla toldRolling Stone, “It changed my whole life.”
