The song was quickly produced and released in early April 2016, due to fear of it being leaked, and it became an international hit, reaching number 1 in the singles chart in 15 different countries, including her native UK, the US and Drake's native Canada.[4] The success of "One Dance" allowed Kyla to reboot her career, with guest appearances in a number of 2016 British summer music festivals, including the Wireless Festival.[5] Kyla was later featured on English producer Naughty Boy's single, "Should've Been Me", which was released in November 2016 and peaked at number 61 on the UK Singles Chart. She was later featured on another producer Zac Samuel's single "Play It Cool".[6] Kyla released her first single as a lead artist, called "You Ain't Mine", featuring dancehall artist Popcaan, on 15 September 2017.[7] Personal lifeKyla is married to Errol Reid (also known as DJ Paleface, one half of the Crazy Cousinz production team) and has a son.[4][1] She was previously an ESL teacher.[4] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news|last1=Cliff|first1=Aimee|title=Kyla: "It Was Nice Of Drake To Give Me That Step Up"|url=http://www.thefader.com/2016/04/14/kyla-interview|accessdate=2 August 2016|publisher=Fader|date=14 April 2016}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Kyla}}{{UK-music-bio-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://acharts.co/song/41528|title=Do You Mind by Kyla|publisher=Acharts|accessdate=18 June 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://thequietus.com/articles/01159-oi-do-you-mind-kyla-interviewed|title=Oi!
