South African singer, Tyla has reacted after the Recording Academy reportedly moved her eponymous debut album into the pop Grammys category.
This is despite the project being initially submitted in the R&B category.
According to Hollywood Reporters, the Recording Academy’s R&B screening committee kicked the project from Best R&B Album to Best Pop Vocal Album.
If nominated in pop, Tyla would become the first African artist to compete in the category.
Her self-titled project would face stiff competition from Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department, Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine, Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft, Chappell Roan’s The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, and Sabrina Carpenter’s Short N’ Sweet.
Reacting to the upgrade, Tyla excited wrote on X; “I make it all.”
Recall that Tyla won the first-ever Grammy for Best African Music Performance earlier this year with her hit song ‘Water.’
