Envision a pastel-colored world where gender and genre boundaries vanish, and expectations, limits, and rules drift away. You can wear whatever you desire and be unapologetically yourself. Welcome to the universe of Tayla Parx. The three-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated artist, singer, songwriter, and trailblazer is crafting a space for her audience to embrace their true selves.
Tayla began unveiling this world in 2017 with her TaylaMade mixtape. Until then, the Dallas native had made waves from two contrasting perspectives—behind the scenes in music and on-screen in television, film, and video games. As a songwriter, her credits include hits for Alicia Keys, Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Meghan Trainor, Ariana Grande, Janelle Monáe, Nicki Minaj, Prince Royce, and BTS, including multi-platinum tracks like Fifth Harmony's "BO$$," Chris Brown's "Anyway," and "Love Lies" by Khalid and Normani. As an actress, she appeared in Hairspray, True Jackson, VP, The Walking Dead, and the Sims video game series. Along the way, outlets such as Vogue, NYLON, Highsnobiety, and Billboard highlighted her work. The TaylaMade mixtape suggested her potential but only scratched the surface.
Now, she presents her major label debut, the aptly named WE NEED TO TALK [Tayla Made/Atlantic Records]. She set the stage with the dreamy "Runaway" [feat. Khalid], which amassed over 9 million Spotify streams within months. The next single, "Me vs. Us," spins a vibrant sonic kaleidoscope, blending pop and R&B with quirky production. It quickly earned acclaim from Complex, Refinery29, and others.
Simultaneously, WE NEED TO TALK delivers a bold message. "Slow Dancing" explores gender fluidity, while "I Want You" humorously tackles the challenge of falling for multiple people at once, asking, "Can you blame me for wanting you, and you, and you, and you too?"
Ultimately, Tayla is poised to remain a compelling topic of conversation with We Need To Talk.
