With a rangy set of friends from Fall Out Boy to Lil Wayne, it was clear from the start that Tyga was not your everyday rapper from Compton. After recording a mixtape and promoting it around the city, Tyga ran into his cousin, Gym Class Heroes member Travis McCoy, in the Flight Club L.A. sneaker shop. Their conversation went from shoes to rappers, and as Travis' group went from unknowns to MTV stars, he would always remember that talk and his cousin's unique style. Tyga scored a hit in the summer of 2018 with standalone single, "Taste," featuring Migos' Offset. The slinky track broke into the Top 10 of the Hot 100, one of his highest showings to date. In 2019, he issued the quick follow-up Legendary, a typically horny set which recruited guests Lil Wayne, Blueface, J Balvin, Bazzi, Chris Brown, and many more.
