South African rising star Tyla is gearing up for her much-anticipated performance this December, and tickets are now available for purchase. The ticket prices, which range from R500 to R950, have sparked a wave of conversation on social media. While some of her loyal fans are eager to secure their spot at the concert, others have taken a different approach, calling on Nigerians to support the Mzansi singer.
A screenshot of the ticket prices circulated on platforms like Twitter, leading to a mixed response from the South African public. Many fans have expressed their excitement and promised to attend, eager to witness Tyla’s electrifying performance. However, there has been a growing sentiment online, with some South Africans urging Nigerians to show their support for Tyla, continuing the trend of international backing she has received.
Tyla has built a considerable fanbase not only in South Africa but across the African continent, particularly in Nigeria. Nigerian fans have shown immense love for the singer, with many praising her music and efforts to represent African talent on the global stage. Some South African Twitter users, referencing this support, playfully suggested that Nigerians should buy the tickets for her concert.
The discussion surrounding Tyla’s concert has also been influenced by recent events. The singer previously spoke out against the backlash faced by Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidinma Obiadi, a former Miss South Africa finalist. Tyla publicly criticized the negative actions of some South Africans toward Chidinma, calling for unity and respect. This has led to some social media users distancing themselves from attending her concert, with remarks like, “Jollofs will support her,” referring to the Nigerian audience, and, “She must go to Nigeria; they will buy them there.”
Despite these online discussions, Tyla’s fanbase remains strong, with many eager to celebrate her success and show up for the concert. As one of the most exciting new voices in African pop Amapiano, Tyla continues to make waves internationally, and her December performance is expected to be a memorable event.
Tyla is scheduled to perform at SunBet Arena; Times Square in Pretoria on the 5th December 2024.
