The song\u2019s chorus repeatedly says, \u201cTake me to Chanel.\u201d\u00a0By October 2025, Tyla had previewed her own version, entitled,\u00a0 \u201cChanel.\u201d On her chorus, she repeatedly said, \u201cPut me in Chanel.\u201d While the beats of the two songs were indeed different, the concepts were very similar. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequently, Miami believed Tyla had ran off with her song and took it as inspiration from her own track. Miami took to X and went off. She wrote, \u201cThis girl really ran off with my song and ion know how to feel about it. Mind you I played this song for this girl.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodunlocked.com\/south-african-singer-tyla-talks-misinterpreted-coloured-identity-feeling-insecure-at-predominately-white-primary-school-and-finally-feeling-pretty-at-predominantly-black-high-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">South African Singer Tyla Talks Misinterpreted \u2018Coloured\u2019 Identity; Feeling Insecure At Predominately White Primary School And Finally Feeling Pretty At Predominantly Black High School<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-tyla-denies-stealing-yung-miami-s-chanel-song-concept\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tyla Denies \u2018Stealing\u2019 Yung Miami\u2019s \u201cChanel\u201d Song Concept<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now confirming Miami\u2019s comments, Tyla admits Miami played the song for her (and others). However, she claims months after the listening session, songwriter <strong>Bibi Bourelly<\/strong> hit her up about a song that would later become Tyla\u2019s \u201cChanel.\u201d Tyla set the record straight on the August 1 episode of <strong>Quenlin Blackwell<\/strong>\u2019s podcast, \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zRei6mq9k3M\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Feeding Starving Celebrities<\/em><\/a>.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The South African singer said when she accepted the song, she wasn\u2019t thinking about Miami and hers. She claims many months had passed since she heard Miami\u2019s record and that she really liked the song presented to her by Bourelly. Putting the rumors to rest, she confirms she loves Miami, calling her a \u201ccool\u201d girl, before singing acapella and dancing to Caresha\u2019s viral \u201cSpend Dat\u201d song.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodunlocked.com\/tyla-again-addresses-2024-mtv-vmas-trophy-controversy-with-halle-bailey-and-lil-nas-x-i-was-confused-when-people-called-me-entitled-those-awards-are-very-heavy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tyla Again Addresses 2024 MTV VMAs Trophy Controversy With Halle Bailey And Lil Nas X: \u2018I Was Confused When People Called Me Entitled, Those Awards Are VERY Heavy\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#Socialites, be sure to check out the post below, then leave us your thoughts in a comment after! <\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DbhGUzpEQuz\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:540px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\"\/>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tyla is officially setting the record straight on the claims that she \u201cstole\u201d the concept of Yung Miami\u2019s song, \u201cTake Me To Chanel.\u201d RELATED: Feud Over!
