"Jump" is a song by South African singer Tyla, American rapper Gunna and Jamaican rapper Skillibeng, from Tyla's self-titled debut album. The song was written by Tyla, Mocha, Believve, Gunna, Skillibeng, and its producer Sammy SoSo. Musically, "Jump" is a genre fusion of Afrobeats, dancehall and hip hop. It features throbbing bass, amapiano percussion, and a chant of the Zulu language expression "haibo". Tyla reflects on her rise to fame with braggadocio in the lyrics and references her hometown Johannesburg by its two colloquial names, Joburg and Jozi.

After becoming a trend on the video sharing service TikTok, "Jump" was sent to US rhythmic radio stations on 14 May 2024 as the album's fourth single. Critics complimented Tyla's confident performance in the song, while some were critical of Gunna's appearance. "Jump" charted at number 18 in South Africa and became Tyla's second top-40 entry on the UK Singles Chart. The music video, directed by Nabil, was mainly filmed in the Johannesburg areas of Hillbrow and Soweto, and was regarded by local media as an authentic representation of South Africa.
