Grammy-winning South African singer Tyla has stated that because of her meteoric rise in the music industry, some people are beginning to think she is a member of the Illuminati.
She said the belief that being a member of the Illuminati is the only way to attain superstardom in the global music industry is flawed.
The ‘Water’ crooner noted that “God is the center of everything” that she has achieved so far.
Tyla covered the latest issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine.
“People already think I’m in the Illuminati? Oh, now. I know some people think that’s the only way, but it really isn’t. God is the center of everything that we are doing, and clearly, it’s working,” she said.
On her new reality as a mixed-race South African in America, Tyla said, “When people are like, ‘You’re denying your blackness,’ it’s not that at all. I never said I was not black. It’s just that I grew up as a South African, knowing myself as colored. And now that I’m exposed to more things, it has made me other things too. I’m also mixed-race. I’m also black. I know people like finding a definition for things, but it’s ‘and,’ not ‘or’.”
