From clubs to matric dances: Tyla's South African stopover unveiled

Grammy-award-winning Tyla has been booked and busy since the beginning of the year with a few breaks here and there. 

The latest one sees her back home in South Africa after an eventful trip that brought her back to her hometown, Johannesburg.

The singer was recently spotted enjoying a well-deserved break, having the time of her life at a club in Sandton with her friends, rocking oversized shades and dancing to her unreleased song “Is It”. 

The song, which was initially set to drop on June 28, may have been pushed back, but that did not stop the chart-topping singer from jamming to it and continuing to give her fans a sneak peek.

Additionally, like the carefree spirit she is, Tyla always ensures to enjoy her time spent back home with her friends and siblings, but could she be on the streets of Johannesburg to shoot the music visuals for her unreleased song? 

Fans are speculating after a video of the global star in a 16-seater Toyota Quantum taxi while casually wearing a grey Chanel beanie. 

In the video, she is surrounded by students who are excited to take pictures with her as the taxi slowly drives off.

The 23-year-old singer had recently made headlines for surprising 18-year-old Mollwane Madiba at his matric dance, courtesy of his determination and the 5FM team. 

Madiba had been campaigning for months to get Tyla as his dance date and after all his efforts, he was told about Tyla’s unavailability until the singer’s surprise appearance had him and his fellow schoolmates going wild. 

Before her arrival, Madiba was seen with a life-size cutout of Tyla before she made a surprise appearance, making the student’s dream come true and his matric dance one for the books.
