With everyone twistin' it up with Tyga, this guy needs no introduction! The 19-year-old California-native, Tyga's taking the charts by storm with his first single "Coconut Juice." But Tyga's not a newbie to the music world: he's cousins with Gym Class Heroes lead singer Travis McCoy and BFFs with rapper Lil Wayne. If that's not enough backing, he's also signed to Pete Wentz's Decaydance label! Peep our interview with the teenage star and find out what the weirdest conversation he's had over AIM. (Trust us, it's a pretty crazy story!)

So why are you the kind of guy that needs no introduction?
Basically, I just felt like everyone knew who I was, but they didn't know who I was. I've been around these people for a long time, and I just felt that if I made my album it would be real good.
