Tyla’s album beats Beyoncé’s

It has been reported that Tyla is giving top American musicians a run for their money after she became an intentionally acclaimed pop star.

The success of the Water hitmaker’s debut album, TYLA, has been recorded since its release in December 2023, and is said to have become the seventh best-selling female album, even beating Beyoncé!

According to ThePopStuff, Cowboy Carter, which dropped in March 2024, is trailing slightly behind TYLA’s 2.34M sales with 2.32M.

“‘Tyla’ by Tyla is now the 7th best-selling female album released in 2024, surpassing “Cowboy Carter” by Beyoncé.”

This comes after the TYLA deluxe was officially certified gold. The singer sent out a sweet thank-you note to her supporters for holding her down:

“‘TYLA’ the album has done more than I ever thought my first album would do. My love goes to all my fans going wild.

“Love to God and everyone who worked with me on the project and everything around it. Love to Amapiano, Rnb, Afrobeats, Pop and all my other influences.”

Fans rave over Tyla’s achievement

Netizens cheered and celebrated Tyla’s success, while others mocked Beyoncè:

“The beyhive was attacking Tyla earlier this year and said that she wouldn’t go nowhere because she didn’t name Beyoncè as an inspiration, by the way.”
