Tyla is making fans lose their breath and it’s not because of her sizzling single “Water”. In fact, the periodic pulses of anticipation for the trailblazing Tyla tour have abruptly stopped. Fans around the world were met with the heartbreaking word that Tyla’s much-anticipated global tour would be canceled just as it was about to begin. The reason for such a sudden hiatus? She stated to the world in her heartfelt Instagram post – injury. Although she was preparing for her first world tour later this month, which included stops at festivals like Coachella, those bucket list goals will be put on pause for now.
On Thursday (March 7th), the South African breakthrough hitmaker announced that she is canceling her North American and European tour dates, as well as a few festivals. Tyla’s forthcoming global tour, has been canceled due to an injury that she no longer can push through. As a result, all North American ticket buyers will receive an immediate refund. While international ticket holders will be contacted by the ticket suppliers.
Tyla Shares The News to Fans
Following the sad news, Tyla penned a heartfelt letter to fans on Instagram. Revealing that she’s been privately battling a health issue.
She went on to explain that her injury had “tragically worsened,” forcing her to postpone the trek entirely. The tour was slated to start in Oslow, Norway, on March 21st, followed by the North American leg kicking off in San Francisco on April 22nd before wrapping in Minneapolis on May 28th.
She added that she wants to be stage-ready again this summer. That she and her team are “working diligently on a spectacular show.” Tyla advised her Tygers not to “worry too much,” as they would still see plenty of her around. “Just know when I’m back to performing pain-free, I’m gonna be even more of a problem,” the Grammy-winning singer said in the post. “It’s hard having to turn down opportunities you’ve been waiting your whole life for but God has his plan.”
What’s Next?
Although the amapiano-R&B phenomenon will not be performing live anytime soon, Tyla’s highly awaited debut album is set to drop on March 22nd. With that being said, the 22-year-old, who was named one of Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Artists to Watch in 2024, will release her self-titled album. The forthcoming project will feature 14 tracks, including her standout single “Water” and its Travis Scott-assisted remix.
Tyla’s Trailblazing Climb
Tyla’s climbing career, which began with the chart-topping track “Water,” is not limited to the venues she graces or the musical accolades she receives. It’s also about a community, a covenant bursting with love and expectation from her followers. To share such a pause, she needed the chords of empathy. Tyla strummed those strings with the same solace that her music is born of.
While the cancellation is an apparent blow, it is important to remember that this intermission does not represent the end. The possibility to resonate with global arenas remains; the notes have simply been transposed. And, as the tour may be on hold, her highly awaited debut album arrives. In doing so, it signals the start of a new chapter. The highly anticipated album, especially in the aftermath of this recent news, may bring solace. In addition to an intimate glimpse into Tyla’s soul that a stage cannot currently express. Stay locked here at REMIXD Magazine for any and all updates!
