Noughties garage track named TikTok's UK song of the summer
Kyla's 2008 track has featured in nearly 650,000 videos posted in the UK over the summer
British singer Kyla's Do You Mind has been named as TikTok's song of the summer in the UK after the noughties garage track experienced a resurgence on the app.
The song gained popularity when it was first released in 2008, but it became known worldwide in 2016 when Canadian rapper Drake sampled it on his chart-topping single One Dance.
It has now found a new audience by trending on TikTok, generating more than 500 million views from about 650,000 videos posted in the UK over the summer, according to the platform.
Kyla, who created the song with her husband DJ Paleface, tells BBC Newsbeat it is "surreal" but "incredible" that Do You Mind is getting another moment nearly 20 years on.
Kyla joined singer Jorja Smith on stage at All Points East festival last month to perform the track together
"Back in 2016, even though it had all that success, it still felt like: 'Oh, it's because you're with Drake'," she says.
"I think this time around it was like: 'Well this is actually me'."
Singer Jorja Smith brought Kyla out on stage during her headline slot at All Points East festival in London last month to perform the track together.
Kyla says hearing about 40,000 people sing the song back to her was an "incredible" experience which made her want to cry.
