“Bliss” is a captivating single by South African artist Tyla, released on May 9, 2025, as the lead track for her upcoming sophomore album. Produced by Nolan Lambroza, Dylan Wiggins, and NovaWav, the song blends Afrobeats, Amapiano, and pop, creating a sultry, rhythmic soundscape. Tyla's breathy vocals glide over off-kilter drums, delivering a heartfelt ode to a transformative love that feels both grounding and euphoric.
The song explores the joy of deep emotional connection, with lyrics like “You take me to bliss / Never felt a love like this” capturing the euphoria of being truly seen. Playful metaphors such as “You're the Coke to my Hennessy” add a light, romantic charm, while the track's concise 2:40 runtime leaves listeners craving more. First previewed at Coachella 2025, “Bliss” has been praised for its atmospheric sophistication, drawing comparisons to Aaliyah's smooth R&B style.
Despite its short length, “Bliss” has resonated with fans, sparking excitement on platforms like X for its catchy melody and summery vibe. Some listeners note the absence of a bridge makes it feel slightly incomplete, but Tyla's vocal performance and the song's vibrant energy make it a standout. Tied to a charitable Erewhon smoothie collaboration, “Bliss” signals Tyla's evolution while staying true to her signature sound.
