Popular South African musician Tyla proved that she's a force to be reckoned with when she won her inaugural Grammy for Best Music Performance for her single Water, in February this year.

The multi-award-winning musician thanked her family for supporting her during her acceptance speech.

"If you don't know me, my name is Tyla from South Africa. Last year God decided to change my life. I want to thank my family, my mother. I know she's somewhere crying," said the artist.

The 22-year-old also scooped four South African Music Awards (SAMAs) this year, which she couldn't attend.

"Sadly I could not make the SAMAs; I honestly tried so hard. I even considered getting a blesser to private jet me over there," she said jokingly.
