Tyla sparks conversation with playful dance to Yung Miami’s new single
When Tyla shares a video, the internet listens and this week, her latest post has fans talking. The South African A-Pop sensation was spotted grooving to American rapper Yung Miami’s new track, Tea Time, months after the two were linked by a simmering social media spat over the song title Chanel.
From controversy to choreography
Earlier this year, Yung Miami of the City Girls accused Tyla of drawing inspiration from her unreleased song Take Me to Chanel. Yung Miami claimed she had shared a snippet with Tyla before the South African artist unveiled her own single titled Chanel, sparking online accusations and heated discussions.
Tyla, known for keeping her cool in public spats, never addressed the controversy directly. She continued teasing Chanel in live performances and on her own social media, letting her music speak for itself.
Now, by dancing to Tea Time, Tyla has reignited conversation, but this time, the tone is less confrontational and more ambiguous. Fans are split: is it a subtle olive branch, a playful nod to the past, or a cheeky way to drive attention to Yung Miami’s new release?

“Even Tyla fingers touchin 🤏🏾🤏🏾🤏🏾 I’m really that b**** fr ain’t no denying it 😏,” Yung Miami wrote, sending social media into a frenzy.
