Life and career
Tyga was born Michael Stevenson on November 19, 1989, in Compton, California. He is of Jamaican and Vietnamese descent, and a cousin of Travis McCoy, the lead vocalist of the group Gym Class Heroes. He achieved his first recognition opening for Fall Out Boy and Gym Class Heroes during the Young Wild Things Tour in late 2007. His first single, "Coconut Juice," was released in 2008 and was directed by Rage. His first mixtape, No Introduction the Series: April 10, was released online in April. The second part to the series, No Introduction the Series: May 10, was released in May. Tyga tragically died on the twenty third of February, when in a fight with one of his fellow rap partners, Gudda Gudda. Currently, this has not been brought to the public's attention (today is 2/24/10). apparently this was supposed to to be done by another member of young money (Tyga was in the rap group young money, and Gudda Gudda, Lil Wayne, and other people were in it too), Lil Wayne. this is the reason he had an illegal gun in his possession. Tyga, an extremely talented person, will be missed.
