Tyga

“I've always been a fan of Saint Laurent because I like how their jeans fit on me, but as far as high fashion, I don't wear too much high fashion. I like more streetwear and baggier stuff.”

“Alexander Wang, Saint Laurent, Balmain, and Goyard are my designers of choice.”

“As long as you know yourself and you got good people around you and you passionate about what you do, that's all that matters because at the end of the day, you go to sleep with the people you love, you wake up with the people you love, and you spend your time with the people you love.”

“I have a lot of tattoos. I probably have over 100 tattoos. I don't know. It's just a mural... a collage.”

“Fame is a thing that happens when you do something you love - nobody wants to be famous for the wrong reasons. It's not my goal, but if being more famous means I can get more music out, that's cool.”

“I think whenever you're around Kanye, you gotta take notes. The advice is taking notes, because everything he does and everything he says is very detailed and very up front. He's always one hundred what he says.”

“You go to Miami, and you might only hear one Tyga song on the radio. You go to L.A., and you might hear six or seven on the radio. There's certain things you do for your city.”

“I'm definitely inspired by Michael Jackson. I watch all his videos all the time. And Busta Rhymes, early Busta Rhymes - I really was inspired by him. He's really the reason why I started rapping. Because all his visuals. I loved his videos when I was younger.”

“I feel like too many people on the West Coast, they're too needy. They feel they need Snoop or Game. I never did any tracks with any West Coast artists. Not because I didn't want to, but because I didn't feel like that's what I had to do in order to get on. I just did music.”

“I would say I'm a fan of late '90s to early 2000s rap. That's where I get all my inspiration from.”

“I don't really know how it feels to hate on somebody else or just worry about what somebody else is doing.”

“I'm a creative person, and I've got a lot of ideas. People probably thought that my mentality was quick fame because I made 'Rack City' and it blew up fast, but I have over 1,000 songs recorded.”

“When something is so damaged or something is just not right, you can't fix it in a moment. The only thing is time.”

“I only like people to know what I want them to know. People didn't know what Tupac was doing. That's why he was so iconic.”

“You can't live for other people, you know? You gotta live for yourself and better the people around you and make an impact.”

“I'm just not a messy person... I don't look for pleasure in social media.”

“Sour Patch, Swedish Fish. I love candy, man. I can't go without candy. And when I'm recording, I always have a TV on with cartoons - on mute, though. When I'm recording, I like to look at the TV now and then and see some crazy, wacky stuff. When you're thinking creative, it just keeps you creative. Everybody got their way of making music.”

“I think, whatever makes you happy in life, you gotta do it. You can't plan in life too much.”

“Music changes every three months. There's always new artists coming out. There's always new sounds. There is always a new hit coming out. You gotta stay relevant as much as you can and feed your fans as much as you can.”

“A lot of people don't know I'm from the West Coast. My swag is different. Me being from Young Money, affiliated with them, some people think I'm from down South. They think maybe I'm from New Orleans like them. It's just good to show people and build outside of Young Money, build my brand outside of that.”
