Festivalgoers at Coachella's final weekend got a taste of new Tyla music, and they agree it is another banger.

South African singer Tyla has teased a new song that many fans are calling her next big hit.
The 'Water' hitmaker previewed the song during her second weekend at the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California.
"I don't want to be nowhere without you/Baby, I don't want to let you out my sight/I don't wanna, I don't ever wanna break away from you or the light might go away/I need you in my life," she sings.
According to several reports, the song is called 'Bliss'.
Social media users have already described the unreleased track as a certified banger.
"Tyla has transitioned us into another music genre...and I LOVE IT!!!!! The Afrobeat 'claimers' can give us a break now!" one X user wrote.
A second user commented: "@Tyllaaaaaaa DROP IT NOWWWWWW."
A third said, "Her vocal range is so beautiful."

Tyla performed several other songs during her Coachella set, including her latest hit 'Push 2 Start'.
South African-German musician WizTheMc joined Tyla onstage to perform his single, 'Show Me Love."
"Fell in love w this song and had to jump on. Young banger for the Ambush.Show me love w @wizthemc," Tyla wrote on Instagram after their performance.
WizTheMc, whose real name is Sanele Sydow, commented, "Such an honour to have you on the song. South Africa to the world."
Fans heaped praise on their collaboration.
"The song was already amazing, and in your voice it sounded so beautiful," one Tyla fan said.
Another fan wrote: "This is totally the song of the summer."
They were also in love with her outfit choice, which was similar to the one worn by Britney Spears during her iconic performance of 'I'm a Slave 4 U' at the 2001 MTV VMAS.
However, Tyla later clarified that while she loves Britney, she "just thought the outfit was fly".
Tyla's fans can expect a lot more new music in 2025.
In a new interview, the 23-year-old told Nylon magazine that she has recorded full-on rap songs and plans to release one of them.
"I’m not going to lie, it’s hot. I’m excited to show people that I’m more diverse than they think. I want to take my time with my artistry and give whatever feels right for that moment. So one day, you’re going to get that Tyla rap song," she said.
Tyla also talked about her plans for a second album.
"Every day I can be in the studio, I’m there. I’m working on the new project currently. I’m super excited because even though I love my debut album, I feel like a totally different person.
"Everything that has happened forced me to grow very fast. I’m also the type of person that gets bored very easily. So I’m excited to see this new version of me and hear what it sounds like and just have fun with it — just bring back fun in music," the Grammy Award winner said.
