Tyga signed a recording deal with Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records and Republic Records in 2008 after a number of independent releases.
His album’s major label debut Careless World: Rise of the Last King was released in the year 2011 and featured the hit songs “Rack City”, “Faded” (featuring Lil Wayne), “Far Away” (featuring Chris Richardson), “Still Got It” (featuring Drake) and “Make It Nasty”. The album’s success was followed by Hotel California (2013) and The Fan of a Fan: The Album (2015) in collaboration with Chris Brown.
