Tyla, Zara Larsson Pay Homage to Britney Spears in ‘She Did It Again’

Tyla and Zara Larsson have teamed up on a new single called “She Did It Again.” The song blends R&B and pop with Y2K-inspired production. It serves as the lead single from Tyla’s forthcoming sophomore album, A-Pop.

Song and style

The two artists trade verses over a sleek, nostalgic beat. Tyla delivers a confident hook, while Larsson adds a throwback pop line. The track weaves modern R&B rhythms with pop hooks and early-2000s flair.

Lyrics and homage

Tyla warns, “I’m addictive, baby, what you want me to do?/Not a quick fix, one hit might ruin you.” Larsson replies, “Put a man on his knees, not trying to tease/Oops, did it again like Britney.”

On “She Did It Again”, Tyla and Zara Larsson nod to Britney Spears with obvious Y2K references. The record intentionally echoes a classic pop moment while keeping its own identity.
