Tyla Turns Up the Heat with the Highly Anticipated Summer Sizzler ‘IS IT’

Tyla increases the temperature in the room as she shares her latest single 'Is It', which follows her only other single of 2025, 'Bliss'.

The flirtatious Amapiano-driven single produced by Sammy Soso, encourages people to go to the dance floor and, landing with a visually striking video directed by Aerin Moreno, the creative force behind Tyla’s viral ‘Push 2 Start’ clip you are left hypnotised.

However, this time, Moreno crafts a multi-sensory party that shifts from hypnotic solo choreography to steamy duets and chaotic club scenes, all within one seamless space. Tyla calls it a “new version” of herself as she tells NYLON we “just need to bring back fun in music”, and making sure we dance while she does it.

Already riding high from a whirlwind year of red carpets, viral collabs and chart-ready charm, Tyla’s 2025 has been a masterclass in momentum and cultural moments. From stealing the spotlight at the Met Gala and Coachella to partnering with Coca-Cola for its ‘Road Trip’ campaign (soundtracked by her previously mentioned track ‘Bliss’), she’s not just setting the tone for summer — she’s soundtracking it.

For people curious about The Sarz Academy, how would you describe it? The Sarz Academy is a creative hub for talented people and the way of letting people—becoming creatives, producers, artistes alike—have a chance at making decent music. Basically, what I’m doing is creating the things that I needed during my time, but I did not have. Because there are certain things that I would have doubled down on, certain things I would have invested in, if I had the knowledge. Because of creative people like me, I created the Academy to help guide them. Do creatives apply to The Sarz Academy or do they have to be scouted? They apply. If you get chosen, you go through a course of training, from music to the music business. As a private person, what would you say you like to do when you’re not producing or in the studio? Like what do you do outside of music? I like to call my friend Abby (also a member of his team) to go to the cinema to see a movie together. Movies are a big part of our frien
