South African singer Tyla Laura Seethal, known as Tyla, has explained why she loves Nigerian singer Asake.

In a recent interview with RollingStone, Tyla shared that she admires Asake for his "choir vocals." She expressed her appreciation for the unique vocal style that Asake brings to his music.

Tyla further revealed that her viral hit 'Water' was inspired by a combination of Amapiano from her home country, her childhood R&B influences, and Nigeria's Afrobeats.

This insight into her musical influences highlights the cross-cultural collaboration and inspiration that contributes to the diversity in contemporary African music.

She said, “Amapiano music is the core of it [‘Water’] in my opinion. And just all of the influences from growing up like Rihanna and all the R&B girlies, R&B boys, pop girls. That type of influence I love bringing into my music.

“Something I really love in Afrobeats music is when I hear those step vocals that sound like a choir, almost. And I really love the way Asake uses it. I just always love the way it sounds. So, with the chorus [of my song ‘Water,’ I incorporated it]. Obviously, people can’t stop singing, they can’t get it out of their minds, which I love.”
