How did you get the name Tyga?
When I was younger, my mom used to call me that. She used to say I looked like Tiger Woods when I was younger, and she used to call me "Tiger" all the time, but I switched the spelling to "TYGA" -- Thank You God Always.

Your album is really fun and positive, not the typical rap we've heard lately. Why did you go in this direction?
I'm not gonna say [I'm a] super positive person, but I'm doing me and I'm not trying to do anything else like outside of the box -- go this way and go that way. I just do what I know and that's just being creative and being talented and showing my talent.

You Say!
