Biografía de Ty Dolla $ign

Ty Dolla $ign was born Tyrone Griffin on the 13th of April 1985. Performing and recording since 2007, the Los Angeles, USA native gained a reputation for being alternative R&B’s chief hedonist, alongside being one of the genres most in demand producers and collaborators.

I can’t be the only person in the world to look at the stage name of one of modern R&B’s premier lotharios and find myself only able to think of Glee’s Principle Figgins referring to Ke$ha as “Ke-dollar-sign-ha”, right?

It might stick out like a sore thumb but like the Foo Fighters before him, having an absurd stage name has only made the fact that Tyrone Griffin has risen above it and can be taken seriously for his talent and skill all the more impressive. Needless to say, it’s some serious talent and skill.

Beginning his musical career as a bassist in 2007, Griffin tried his hand at rapping in a number of groups and solo project but first came to true prominence as a producer. Most notably, he co-wrote and produced YG’s debut single “Toot It And Boot It” in 2010, his first taste at Billboard chart success.

After some solo releases he signed a major label contract with Atlantic Records in 2012, followed by another contract with Taylor Gang Records the following year. Since then he has gone from strength to strength, collaborating with everyone from new blood The Weeknd, established stars like label boss Wiz Khalifa, all the way up to bona fide legends like Rihanna.

To cap it off, this level of success has come without even a debut album to his name. His E.P’s, collaborations and mixtapes have made him the kind of name that most artists would kill to be, and even then, he’s got his best days far ahead of him. One to watch for sure.

okay so i initially wanted to go to the first show at 9 pm, but it was sold out. then i found out a few days later that there was a 2nd show right after at 11 pm, so i immediately bought the tickets to that one. and i got there and it was also packed.

we went inside, there was not a lot of white people. almost none. this is not a bad thing, though. don't get me wrong here. the cool thing about the crowd was that there were a lot of pretty women (in high heels showing the hell out) that came out to the show because obviously bryson tiller is an r&b singer who talks about love and females that he has fell out of it with, so i was expecting that. however, there were also a lot of dudes there. and they were just as excited to see tiller. i cannot front. one reason can be that, obviously, wherever the girls go the guys will follow, but at the same time they really enjoyed the music. i think it was also because bryson tiller was talking from a perspective that a lot of guys find themselves in or are familiar with, which resonates with them. also, the beats are hard, to be vague about it. they just slap. i'm not going into detail on what that means. if you know you know.

anyway, yeah it was a cool show. bryson tiller was swagged out. he did his thing. he's a new artist but he didn't look nervous, but he did look like he was just a bit inexperienced in taking over a stage. i mean, i'm not mad at him. he did his thing, he played all the joints i wanted him to play, and when "don't" came on, THE WHOLE CROWD SANG ALONG. it was crazy.

Great show but the venue was not the best for them. Their set was well put together and they came onto stage smoking a jay, something that I see a lot of first timers in Denver do on stage.

There is no doubt that Ty Dolla $ign, real name Tyrone Griffin is one of the most intimidating performers in hip hop. The guy commands the whole stage from the moment he steps out with his huge stature, huge dreads and huge shades. The crowd does not quite know if to cheer or wait for further command as the rapper does not particularly show them much affection on appearance, instead jeering them with 'is that the best you got?'. This of course evokes even louder roars and only when the man himself deems this to be a suitable level of noise he allows his DJ to cue the bass rumblings of opener 'Lord Knows'.

He moves between rap and more of an R & B style throughout the night showing his vocal range well whilst he plays his debut EP 'Beach House 2' in full much to the delight of crowds. The earlier mix tape material goes over well with the underground fans but it is the finale of 'Or Nah' that really unifies the room and keeps everybody jumping to the very last verse.
