Tyla – That Girl Music Scholarship

2x GRAMMY® Award-winning multi-platinum global superstar Tyla announces her That Girl Music Scholarship. Named for the empowered single from her just-released acclaimed album A*POP, the scholarship will be awarded to 10 female students pursuing music degrees at colleges and universities near select stops on her upcoming tour.

The Tyla That Girl Music Scholarship is the result of a partnership between Sony Music and the International Institute for Education aimed at helping aspiring artists take the next step toward a successful future in music. The $5,000 award will go to 10 students who demonstrate both financial need and academic excellence. Recipients will be chosen from eligible schools within the specified markets, with priority given to Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

The relevant stops along THE A*POP WORLD TOUR include New York City, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Atlanta, Houston and Los Angeles. One recipient will be chosen from each U.S. location, while four recipients will be chosen from Tyla’s native South Africa. The scholarship recipients will also be offered an exclusive tour experience, including concert tickets and a meet-and-greet with the star herself.

Applicants must be full-time undergraduate students enrolled at the time of the local concert, pursuing a music and arts-related majors, and are expected to submit a one-page personal statement, a 30-second video, a school transcript, and proof of financial need.

This scholarship follows a busy year for Tyla. In July, she released her red hot second studio album A*POP.

The highly anticipated set features her ongoing international smash “CHANEL,” the sweltering summer anthem “IS IT,” smoldering Zara Larsson collaboration “SHE DID IT AGAIN,” and, of course, “THAT GIRL.” The record has already won critical and commercial accolades, debuting at #1 on the Billboard World Albums chart and earning praise from outlets like Pitchfork, who called her a “sexy, infectious, fun new voice” in the pop mainstream
