The name is an acronym for Thank You God Always and with a career like his; one has reason to suspect some divine intervention. However, this is not to say he hasn’t earned the right to be one of the biggest names in mainstream hip hop.
The truth is you don’t get signed to the label of one of the world’s most notorious rappers and work with everyone from Drake to Nicki Minaj to Wiz Khalifa without earning the right to do so. It’s just that it’s happened faster than anyone could have predicted.
I mean, who predicts that the second major label single than an artist is a part of goes up to number 2 on the Billboard charts, as Tyga did with the Young Money collaboration “BedRock”? However, Tyga has never been one to let things happen around him.
They say you make your own luck, and in the music industry that’s more true than anywhere elese. For Tyga it was a chance encounter that he had in a shoe store with Travie McCoy. Tyga rapped for him on the spot and the Gym Class Heroes frontman took his mixtape there and then. They now refer to each other as cousins.
Tyga is a golden example of where a well taken opportunity can get you, and his time at the top has only just begun.
Michael Ray Nguyen-Stevenson, better known by his stage persona of Tyga is a cult figure on the R & B scene and has a live show of equal cult status. Having achieved a string of underground hits as well as a commercial album in the States, Tyga's fan base has grown substantially and he now backs out gigs with fans who rap along to every verse of opener 'I'm The Shit'.
A short interlude with Honey Cocaine makes the crowd cheer with joy as the two artists duet with staggering pace and aggression. His collaborative track 'Roger That' with Young Money is also a clear fan favourite, perhaps due to the hope that L'il Wayne may join for a verse or two. The complexity in verses found on such as 'Kings & Queens' and 'Hard in the Paint' prove that Tyga can really hold his own onstage and has no problem hitting every lyric on point.
His audience are enthusiastic throughout as they dance to the heavy bass that reverberates constantly through the whole gig. The finale of 'Rack City' gets the largest cheer as its huge chart success in the US is clearly reflected by the crowd, and they'll be humming the tune long after the gig has finished.
