Tyla Opens North America Leg of The A*POP World Tour in Wheatland
Tyla launched the North America leg of The A*POP World Tour last night at Hard Rock Live in Wheatland, California, opening with “THAT GIRL” and closing with an encore of “WATER” as her sophomore album A*POP continues its run at the top of the Billboard World Albums chart.
Last night, two-time GRAMMY Award-winning global singer and songwriter Tyla launched the North America leg of her highly anticipated THE A*POP WORLD TOUR at Hard Rock Live in Wheatland, CA. The tour celebrates the release of her highly anticipated sophomore studio album, A*POP, which arrived July 24 via FAX and Epic Records.
Tyla opened the show with “THAT GIRL” before delivering performances of “Jump,” “PUSH 2 START,” “Truth or Dare” and more. The setlist also featured fan favorites and chart-topping hits including, “SHE DID IT AGAIN” and “SHAKE AH”, “CHANEL,” before closing with an encore performance of “WATER.” The production brought the A*POP aesthetic to life, transforming the stage into a vibrant, club-like setting with black lights, neon outfits and bold splashes of paint.
THE A*POP WORLD TOUR continues tomorrow with a performance at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco before making stops in Vancouver, Chicago, Brooklyn, Los Angeles and more. The North America leg concludes on Saturday, December 19 at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. Tyla will then bring the tour to Africa for select performances in Cape Town and Johannesburg early January before supporting Bruno Mars on his Australia and New Zealand dates of The Romantic Tour throughout February and March.
The tour follows Tyla’s 2025 We Wanna Party Tour across Asia and the UAE, which included sold-out performances in Japan. THE A*POP WORLD TOUR marks her first full-scale headline tour spanning North America, Europe, the UK and Africa.
Released July 24, A*POP features 14 tracks, including “CHANEL,” “IS IT,” “SHE DID IT AGAIN” and “IS IT LOVE.” The album is available to stream now at tyla.lnk.to/APOP. The record has already won critical and commercial accolades, debuting at #1 on the Billboard World Albums chart and earning praise from outlets like Pitchfork, who called her a “sexy, infectious, fun new voice” in the pop mainstream.
Tickets and tour information are available at TylaWorld.com.

About Tyla
In an era where niche culture has taken priority over monoculture, two-time GRAMMY® winner TYLA has ascended to true and unequivocal global superstar status. With A*POP, asserted and fully aware of her presence in pop music, she presents a project that refuses containment or dismissal. It’s confrontational, candid but fun, and spills authenticity rooted in where she’s from: a country that has always spoken in more than one musical language. Through this language, she reveals her range not just as an African artist, but as a global pop star with an entire world behind her.
TYLA’s journey got off to a historic beginning in 2024, when she won her first GRAMMY® Award, and made Billboard chart history with the three-time RIAA® Platinum smash hit “WATER,” and the release of her seminal debut albums, TYLA and TYLA+. The set produced another Hot 100 and GRAMMY®-winning hit, “PUSH 2 START,” and sent seven songs to the U.S. Afrobeats chart, including two no. 1s. The campaign made TYLA the highest-charting African female soloist on the Billboard 200. With her highly-anticipated second go-round, A*POP, TYLA picked up where she left off. “CHANEL,” one of the album’s standout singles, was an immediate pop sensation. It topped the U.S. Afrobeats chart and earned over 150 million video views, while TYLA’s follow-up effort, the Zara Larsson-assisted, Y2K-inspired “SHE DID IT AGAIN,” became a disruptive moment, and amplified TYLA’s commitment to the pop star realm. “IS IT LOVE?,” the album’s third single, earned TYLA her record fourth no. 1 on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats chart. A*POP is available now.
