Tyla and Wizkid just lit the fuse. Their long-awaited collab “Dynamite” finally dropped, and the visuals? Pure heat. Shot in a dusty Moroccan apartment that turns into a full-blown warzone, the video captures the slow burn of a track that’s been sitting in the vault since 2023. It might’ve taken two years to finish, but this one was worth the wait.
On paper, pairing Tyla and Wizkid makes too much sense. She’s been holding it down for South Africa with that smooth amapiano flair, while Wiz is still Nigeria’s golden boy with the Midas touch for laid-back bangers. Together, they ride the beat with effortless chemistry, blending sensual melodies and subtle percussive bounce into something tailor-made for hot nights and slow whines.
Tyla told Capital XTRA they just “didn’t end up finishing it” back when they first linked. Life got in the way. But now, timing’s perfect. “Dynamite” lands right in the middle of a stacked year for her—after “Bliss,” “Is It,” and that surprise Lisa collab “When I’m With You,” she’s making every move count. Add her Smurfs soundtrack moment (“Everything Goes With Blue”) and you’ve got range that’s almost disrespectful.
Wizkid glides through his verse like smoke, never breaking a sweat. Tyla’s vocals pull you in close, whispering in your ear with that mix of danger and desire. It’s not loud—it’s lethal.
Then comes the video’s finale. Think John Wick: Chapter 3, but make it fashion. Flames explode, tension snaps, and everything gets blown wide open—just like the beat, just like the chemistry.
“Dynamite” is a flex. Two stars, one spark, and a reminder that sometimes, delayed detonation hits hardest.
