TikTok user @Nora commented: 'Another new song??? We are winning 😩.'
Another user @Amely commented: 'The hype is real! Can't wait to hear this track drop on Friday, it's going to be a vibe!'
Additionally, the phrase 'tylawewannaparty' has been all over the 'Push 2 Start' singer's social media. She also made the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards audience chant it as she played a snippet of the upcoming single during the awards ceremony.
One fan pointed out that the phrase could be Tyla's hint at a new album, as 'Is It' will be her second single to drop this year.
TikTok user @teaonperiod asked: 'Also, doesn't anyone realise that Tyla is hinting at a new album called 'We Wanna Party' and in her last post, she said it is coming sooner than you think???'
