If you’ve been watching Tyga’s tweets as of recent, then you probably know his apparent miscommunications with his major label YMCMB. Over a year ago, we heard these same rumors when we saw the lack of label mates featured on his Hotel California album.
After he and Tunechi got on Chris Brown’s hit-single “Loyal” people started to ease off the situation a little. After a bit of time passed, Tyga has been going public with a ton of comments, showing his true feelings about the situation.
Gold album been done. my label holding me hostage so i can’t release nothing. might just leak it for my fans then let them make $ off it.

With legends Kanye West and Mike Dean holding executive producer roles, many thought he would leave for a possible switch to the G.O.O.D music imprint.
Ain’t no one man go stay in the same spot forever that’s a sucka. Im a hustler so I took what lil bit he gave me and doubled up – 2pac — T-Raww (@Tyga) October 10, 2014
After taking to twitter to vent about his forthcoming — which can be seen above — LP, Tyga sat-down with VIBE to discuss his label issues, his personal relationships — or lack there of — with Drake, Nicki Minaj and why he’s plans to leave one of the biggest labels in the industry. Here’s a bit of what he said:
I’m tryna’ go independent. I don’t really get along with Drake. I don’t really get along with Nicki. I don’t like Drake as a person. He’s just fake to me. I like his music; you know what I’m saying? I think his music is good, but we’re all different people. We were forced together and it was kinda’ like we were forcing relationships together. It is what it is. But I been friends with Chris [Brown] for like six years. That’s my real genuine friend. We hang out all the time. He lives up the street from me, so we don’t just do music we hang. I think being signed to Young Money, everybody felt like they had to force a relationship ‘cause Wayne put us together. At the end of the day the reason why I signed to Young Money is because of Wayne. Not because of Drake, not because of Nicki. It was because of Wayne and my relationship with him. I try to be cool with everybody, but sometimes, everybody just has different personalities, motives, and different characters. When you realize that, you realize that’s not a place where you want to continue to grow.
