In a three-and-a-half-star review, NME described the record as a “surprisingly cautious follow-up”, adding: “Where ‘Tyla’ introduced an artist confidently reshaping amapiano’s relationship with global pop, this sequel largely settles for polishing what already worked instead of pushing it somewhere new.” It continued: “Tyla’s second album might be called ‘A*POP’, but as someone earmarked for greatness, it falls short of earning top marks.” Last month, Tyla joined Katy Perry, Future, LISA, Anitta and others to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the US.
