When you listen to iyla, you won’t just hear a boundary-breaking artist; you’ll hear a charismatic and confident woman at the height of her power. Emerging out of the San Fernando Valley, the Irish and Italian songstress officially introduced herself on 2018’s War + Raindrops EP—highlighted by “Juice” and “Flowers.”

She maintained her momentum with the OTHER WAYS TO VENT EP in 2020. “Strings” popped off with 37 million-plus Spotify streams, while “CASH RULES” teamed her with none other than Method Man.

2023 saw her level up again via the APPETITE FOR DISASTER EP, spawning “Impala” [feat. Symba] and “Lost Me” [feat. Benny The Butcher].

She incited the applause of The FADER, V Magazine, NYLON, UPROXX, MTV, Vogue, The Washington Post, and Complex who pegged her among “20 R&B Artists to Watch in 2023.”

Hitting the road, Demi Lovato tapped her as an opener. Meanwhile, she packed houses on her first-ever North American headline tour, selling out Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Atlanta and Toronto.

Along the way, iyla gained strength and self-assurance from one of the hardest seasons of her life, and she flips those traits into her music.

She delivers her fluid and fiery signature hybrid of R&B, pop, and hip-hop with even more aplomb.

Plus, she serves even more panache, poise, and passion.

And…she gives even less of a fuck what anybody thinks.

She went through a lot to get to her full-length debut, Weeping Angel, but she was able to transform this pain into art with the potential to uplift—as evidenced by standouts like “Skirt Hurt (Redemption),” “Wild,” “Overboard,” “Strut,” and “Blue Eyes.”
