Grammy-winning South African singer Tyla recently revealed that she is unable to be in a relationship with a man who frequents nightclubs.
The singer recently said that she would rather be with a man who likes playing video games than a man who frequents bars in an interview with Power 96.5 FM in Miami.
When people question Tyla about her love situation, she explains that she is single because she wants to devote all of her efforts to her career as a musician.
The interviewer asked the subsequent question
“Would you rather have a boyfriend who plays video games a lot or a boyfriend who is always in the club?”
Tyla replied:
“Video games all day. A club guy? No! What the hell?
“I would rather have a boyfriend who plays video games than a boyfriend who is at the club every weekend. At least, I know the guy who plays video games will always be home with me. I also love being at home.”
Regarding why she is single, she stated:
“Yes, I am single. I’m not playing with all of that right now. I am focusing on the prize.”
GISTLOVER reported that The Grammy Awards organisers generated a lot of discussion online when they rewarded South African artist Tyla for her song ‘Water.’
However, controversy occurred when the late Nigerian Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’s song ‘Water No Get Enemy,’ was played at the announcement.
Tyla’s ‘Water’ won the Recording Academy’s inaugural Best African Music Performance award, defeating prominent Nigerian hits such as Davido’s ‘Unavailable,’ Asake’s ‘Amapiano,’ Burna Boy’s ‘City Boys,’ and Ayra Starr’s ‘Rush.’
However, the jubilant moment transformed into bewilderment and disappointment as Fela’s immortal masterpiece resonated through the arena instead of Tyla’s sexually charged mid-tempo ballad.
Many criticized the organizers for what they deemed a “silly mistake” that overshadowed the significance of the award and disrespected the memory of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, a towering figure in African music history.
