Here are the international certifications Tyla has received for her song and debut album, as fans prepare for her second studio album.
Tyla has rapidly become one of Africa's most certified artists globally, particularly following the massive success of her hit "Water" and her 2024 self-titled debut album, this growth can be seen through the total number of certifications she has managed to garner so far in her career with just singles and an album.
What Are Music Certifications and Why Do They Matter?
Music certifications (gold, platinum, multi-platinum and diamond) are awarded by national recording industry bodies to track sales and streaming milestones. They are one of the most reliable indicators of an artist's true global reach. For an African artist to rack up certifications across the US, Europe, South America, and the Pacific simultaneously is virtually unheard of. Tyla has done exactly that.
