“I was lowkey waiting for him because I knew he’s going to come. He’s going to come,” Tyla expressed with confidence. Her premonition came true when Drake joined the ranks of her followers, marking a significant nod of recognition from the industry heavyweight.

The possibility of a collaboration between Tyla and Drake was teased with a cryptic “Maybe” from the South African singer, hinting at future musical prospects. The acknowledgment from Drake follows a trajectory of success for Tyla, who has not only topped charts but also secured a Grammy nomination for Best African Music Performance with her hit “Water.”

Social media users and fans have been abuzz since Drake’s social media gesture, with some expressing concern for the young artist, advising caution. Tyla, however, remains focused on her artistry and the potential of working with one of her musical inspirations.

Previously, Tyla has spoken of her admiration for Drake’s versatility and aspired to collaborate on a track that showcases their shared ability to transcend genres. “I just love that he’s such a diverse artist,” she said in an earlier interview with RealLyfe Productions’ Street Starz.

As Tyla continues to make waves in the music scene, the industry and fans alike are on the lookout for what might be a groundbreaking collaboration, manifesting her dreams into reality.
