Johannesburg-born singer, Tyla took home the Grammy for Best African Music Performance in the category’s first year.
The “Water” singer was nominated alongside ASAKE & Olamide, Burna Boy, Davido featuring Musa Keys and Ayra Starr. Tyla’s hit single peaked last month at number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
“I never thought I’d say I won a Grammy at 22 years old,” Tyla said as she accepted the award. “Thank you to the Recording Academy for this category. It’s so important.”
