Career

2006–2012: Brick & Lace and Bloodline

Nyla's career in music began as a member of the pop / reggae group Brick & Lace. In 2006 the group signed a record deal with Akon's Konvict Muzik[5] / Geffen Records and released their debut album, Love Is Wicked in 2007. The album spawned four charting singles... "Never Never", "Get That Clear", "Bad to di Bone" and their biggest hit to date, "Love Is Wicked", which was listed for 97 weeks in 7 different charts worldwide.[6] In 2010, Nyla and her sisters formed a songwriting team called: Bloodline. They have written songs for Kelly Rowland,[7] Christina Aguilera, Nicole Scherzinger, Leah Labelle and Arash. In 2012, she co-wrote the gold-certified, chart topping single "Follow the Leader", performed by Wisin & Yandel featuring Jennifer Lopez. "Follow the Leader" made strides all over the Latin charts and was one of the major releases in the Latin market the year it released.[citation needed]

2014–present: Solo debut

In 2015, Nyla was featured on the song "Light It Up" by Major Lazer, a track from their album Peace Is the Mission. Later, a remix of the song featuring Fuse ODG was released as a single, which received highly positive reviews and charted top 10 and reached the #1 spot in many countries throughout Europe. The song also topped many digital formats (i.e. Spotify, Pandora and Shazam).[8][9] In 2016 Nyla also featured on the song "Good Vibe" alongside Warner Bros Recording artist Strobe. The record was well received with over 1 million streams to date on Spotify. In 2017 Nyla picked up right where she left off with the release of the Ed Sheeran "Shape Of You" (Major Lazer Remix) feat. Nyla & Kranium.[citation needed]
