Tyla is keeping the summer bops coming in 2025 by announcing her upcoming single, “Is It,” on Thursday (July 3).
She posted an Instagram photo of the lower half of her body that’s heavily dusted with glitter to tease the song, which she recently previewed while partying in her native Johannesburg. She also hashtagged the post #WEWANNAPARTY. “Is It” will arrive next Friday, July 11, via FAX and Epic Records.
The “Water” hitmaker kept her lips sealed while speaking to Billboard ahead of her recent hosting gig at the 2025 Kids’ Choice Awards on June 21, where she also won favorite global music star. “I’m not saying too much. You guys are gonna know when you’ll know. And it’s gonna be a vibe. We outside. We’re catching party vibes,” she said at the time, adding that she had “fun” recording “Everything Goes with Blue” from the Smurfs Movie Soundtrack. “I love The Smurfs. And Rihanna being Smurfette, it’s such a fun Smurf movie. So I’m happy that I’m a part of that one.”
“Is It” marks Tyla’s second solo single this year after “Bliss,” which reached No. 11 on Hot R&B Songs and No. 17 on Rhythmic Airplay. She told Billboard ahead of Women in Music, when she won the Impact Award, that she would release her sophomore album this year. “I’ve changed a lot in a short amount of time because I was kind of forced to with how fast I had to adapt to everything,” she said at the time. “I don’t think it’s going to be the same energy [as Tyla] at all, especially with what I’ve started making. It’s different, but also still Tyla.”
