South African sensation Tyla is turning up the heat this season with a trio of exciting projects: her new single “Is It”, a summer-ready mixtape titled We Wanna Party, and a surprise collaboration with global icon Shakira on the upcoming track “REPEAT”.
“Is It” – Tyla’s Latest Hit Is Already Making Waves
Released on July 11, Tyla’s newest single “Is It” is an amapiano-infused pop anthem produced by Sammy Soso. Blending sultry vocals with a sun-soaked beat, the song instantly resonated with fans earning over 1.2 million Spotify streams on its first day and being crowned Best New Release of the Week by multiple music outlets.
The single comes with a vibrant, fashion-forward music video directed by Aerin Moreno, which has sparked a dance challenge across TikTok and Instagram.
🔥 We Wanna Party Mixtape Drops July 25
As the buzz continues, Tyla is gearing up to release her first official mixtape, We Wanna Party, on July 25, 2025. The project is set to include:
- Her 2025 singles “Bliss” and “Is It”
- Two new previewed tracks, “Dynamite” and “Chanel”, unveiled during her Berlin launch event
- A genre-blending fusion of Afropop, R&B, and amapiano
The mixtape is expected to be a feel-good, party-driven soundtrack for the rest of the year, capturing Tyla’s globe-spanning sound and dancefloor energy.
🌍 A Global Collab: Tyla x Shakira on “REPEAT”
In a major cross-continental moment, Tyla is teaming up with Colombian superstar Shakira for a new single titled “REPEAT”, which is expected to drop next month. The song has been officially registered with ASCAP and lists both artists as co-writers and performers.
Though the release date hasn't been confirmed, fans are buzzing after the two were seen interacting at industry events earlier this year. Social media posts and whispers suggest the song may sample “I Know What You Want” by Busta Rhymes and Mariah Carey, with production by hitmakers Chris Jedi and Gaby Music.
This marks a major moment in Tyla’s rising career, pairing her with one of the most iconic Latin pop figures in music history.

Since her breakout hit “Water” and a Grammy win, Tyla has emerged as one of the most exciting young artists in the world. With a viral fanbase, multiple global tours, and now a powerhouse collaboration in the works, she’s proving her star power is only growing stronger.
