YM’s Tyga graces the cover of this months issue of YRB Magazine. Yours truly conducted the interview. Yep, I’m proud as fuck! Below, read an excerpt from our interview where Tyga talks about working with Nasir. And THEN head over to YRB to read the interview in its entirety.
Tyga: I sent him a song about seven months ago and he never got back to me. The song ended up getting leaked, and he hit me up a few weeks ago telling me how proud he is of all that I’m doing, and if it wasn’t too late, he wanted to get down on the project. There’s this song I have called “Kings and Queens” with Wale that I sent over to him to be a part of, he put his verse on it the next day, and it was done.
