The “Water” singer took the stage at the Los Angeles event to accept her award, following in the footsteps of previous Impact Award recipients Solange Knowles, Alicia Keys, Jessie Reyez, H.E.R., Becky G and Young Miko.

“When my career took off, I realized that God has his own plans,” the superstar told the crowd, and was met with cheers of agreement. “I just feel very lucky for my fans who have given me such an exciting life, allowing me to grow in front of the world into all the different versions of myself as an artist and as a woman.”

She continued, “I appreciate the way music has been able to impact us through time and how I’m just a manifestation of that. In life, we all have a chance to pour into one another, whether it be something you say, a performance, a dance move — literally anything. We all have that chance, and you never know what might ignite into somebody and what that person will pass onto another.”

Tyla added that she’s “really grateful,” noting that she will “forever appreciate the people that have poured into me.”

During the ceremony, she also performed her most recent hit, “Push 2 Start,” which was featured on the deluxe edition of her self-titled studio album. The track has topped Billboard’s US Afrobeats songs chart for a whopping 14 weeks, and hit No. 2 on World Digital Song Sales.

You can watch the 2025 Billboard Women in Music ceremony here starting at 7 p.m. ET on Monday (March 31) and on VIZIO TVs and the VIZIO app. Watch Tyla’s acceptance speech above.
