Tyla Makes Grand Return With Sophomore Album, A*Pop
Pop star Tyla is preparing for the release of her sophomore album, A*Pop, following a successful debut and multiple Grammy wins. The rollout has been marked by high-profile social media campaigns and successful single releases.

Listen Tyla formally announced the album tracklist last week on Instagram, where she etched each song of her 14-song tracklist in neon paint during an immersive reveal.
