South African global music sensation, Tyla Laura Seethal known better simply as Tyla, recently made a fashion statement after pictures of her debuting on the cover of the British Vogue magazine went viral.
Tyla recently made a stunning debut on the cover of British Vogue’s March 2025 issue. Photographed by Rafael Pavarotti, Tyla looked fabulous in a pink Balenciaga bustier, showcasing her unique style and fashion-forward approach.

In the feature, Tyla opens up about her journey from Johannesburg to global stardom, her musical influences, and her evolution as an artist.
She reflects on how she’s grown since her debut album “Water,” describing herself as “a little spicier, a little bolder.” Tyla also shares her excitement about being on the cover, describing the experience as “insane” and “so much fun.”
This milestone marks Tyla as not just a music star, but also a fashion icon, representing a refreshing new direction in the music industry.
Her appearance on the cover is a testament to her hard work, talent, and dedication to her craft.
Tyla on a drive to global domination
Tyla is gradually growing into the popular claim of being the Queen of Popiano and has the world at her feet.
OSG recalls how Tyla defeated Davido, Asake, Tems and several other Afrobeats artists to win her first Grammy. She even picked up an Afrobeats gong at the MTV Awards, which stirred an uproar online.
Many Nigerians online kicked against her win at the MTV Awards, noting that she isn’t an Afrobeats artist and has no right being nominated in the category, talkless of winning it.
But it seems all of these controversies have only pushed Tyla to become a bigger music star and a global sensation.
Below are images from her debut on the cover of British Vogue:
