In a recent interview with RollingStone, Tyla discussed the inspiration behind her viral hit ‘Water,’ saying she enjoys how Asake employs his “choir vocals.”
Her song ‘Water’ was inspired by Amapiano from her home country, childhood R&B influences, and Nigerian Afrobeats, she stated.

“Amapiano music is the core of it [‘Water,’] in my opinion,” she remarked. And all of the influences from my childhood, such as Rihanna and all of the R&B girlies, R&B males, and pop gals. I enjoy incorporating such inspirations into my songs.
“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.”
