July 24 (UPI) -- South African singer Tyla took to the stage on Today.

The music artist, 24, performed and discussed her new album A*Pop on Friday's episode of the NBC morning show.

Tyla performed "Is It Love," the third single to debut from A*Pop, and discussed the significance of the album's title in an interview.

"I honestly wanted to honor my inner child," the star said. "My inner child dream of being a pop star and how it always felt unobtainable being from the bottom of Africa, literally South Africa."
