Songfacts®:

  • "Bliss" is a sultry, genre-blending song that centers on the overwhelming joy and completeness found in a deep romantic connection. Tyla sings about wanting to be enveloped in their passion, a source of paradise.
  • Released on May 9, 2025, "Bliss" was Tyla's first solo material since her 2024 eponymous Grammy-winning debut album. The track continues her signature fusion of amapiano, R&B, and pop, while signaling a shift toward more introspective and emotionally layered songwriting.
  • Though Tyla hasn't offered up a precise explanation of what - or who - inspired "Bliss," she's indicated it's part of a broader effort to write more vulnerably, pulling less from party vibes and more from personal reflection.
  • Tyla recorded "Bliss" with producers Sir Nolan, Dylan Wiggins, and NovaWav.

    Nolan "Sir Nolan" Lambroza has also co-penned hits for the likes of Nick Jonas ("Jealous"), Selena Gomez ("Good For You") and DJ Khaled ("No Brainer").

    Dylan Wiggins' resumé also includes tracks by Solange ("Mad"), Calvin Harris ("Over Now") and SZA ("I Hate U").

    NovaWav is a two-woman production/songwriting duo comprising Denisia "Blu June" Andrews and Brittany "Chi" Coney. The pair co-wrote 8 out 16 songs on Beyoncé's Renaissance album.

    Additional songwriting help came from Hailey Alexander and Mirtha Michelle Castro Mármol.
  • Tyla first previewed "Bliss" during her Coachella 2025 set on April 18, 2025.
