Something Dope · · 2 min read
Tyla has released the official music video for "That Girl," a track from her sophomore album A\POP*, which is out now via Epic Records.
The video is directed by Mila Rowyszn and Oliwia Drożdż. It blends live action with retro animation, placing Tyla alongside an animated tiger companion in a neon-lit fantasy world built around the visual aesthetic of the A\POP* era.
Alongside the video drop, the RIAA issued three new certifications for Tyla's catalog. "Water" is now 4x Platinum. "Push 2 Start" has been certified Platinum. "Art" has earned Gold certification.
Tyla is also launching The A\*POP World Tour. The run opens October 12 in Paris and moves through Europe and the UK before hitting North America in November. The North America leg includes stops in San Francisco, Chicago, Brooklyn, and more, wrapping December 5 in Tampa.
Tickets went into artist presale on July 29 via Laylo. General on-sale begins July 31 at 10AM local time at TylaWorld.com.
