Tyga stopped by Power 105.1 The Breakfast Club yesterday (February 16) to discuss a wide range of topics, including his ongoing feud with Drake.
He spent most of the interview clearing the air and dispelling rumors that have run rampant onTMZ and other celebrity gossip sites.
“I’m not the type of person to really talk about my personal life. That’s just not really who I am,” Tyga told the morning show hosts before answering questions about who he’s dating.
“I’m not dating Kylie [Jenner],” he added. “I just want to get that out the way. I want to be clear with everybody that I didn’t leave my family to be with Kylie. That’s ridiculous. Me and Chyna, we broke up almost close to a year now. We decided to split to raise an emotionally stable kid. I didn’t leave nobody to be with anybody. It just wasn’t working.”
Tyga also explained that TMZ “didn’t really care” about him, until they figured out he lived next door to Kim and Kanye.
“In Black culture, it’s different if you hang around somebody,” he says. “You smashing ’em, but White culture is different. They really are friends. It’s different. It’s genuine. It’s like we really friends. I respect her moms. I know her whole family…I’m not holding her hands or kissing her. I’m raising my son.”
He went on to mention that Kylie’s a “good person” and that “her energy is good.”
In regards to his dispute with Cash Money and Drake, Tyga made it clear that he would never say anything bad about Wayne and that his situation wasn’t Wayne’s fault.
“I sold over ten, eleven million singles with them,” he says. “I have all of these singles that go gold with no radio push, no nothing…I don’t really know who to point the fingers at. I talked to Baby. I was supposed to be out my deal last month.”
As for calling Drake a “bitch” via Twitter over the weekend, Tyga says “Sometimes, you have a light-skinned moment.”
“If it’s real, it’s real,” he says. “If it’s not, it’s not. I just don’t fuck with him as a person because of the experiences that I’ve had with him personally. I’m not going against who he is as a person to the public or his music. Like I said, his music is great and it’s undeniable. It’s his moment.
“It’s not really just a beef,” he continues. “It’s just personal experiences that I’ve had with him. Phone calls and stuff like that. I feel like he’s a nice guy on the outside, but he’s not genuine and he plays people left and right. That’s just my opinion. At the end of the day, that’s how I felt when I did that interview.”

For more Tyga coverage, watch the following DX Daily:
I fuck with Tyga. Nigga may not look intimidating, but he a real nigga from the street. Drake can’t handle his own business like that. If Drake keeps this a music beef, he won’t get bodied. Simple as that.
From the streets…really…I guess you never saw that MTV show with him on it as a youth…..google som’
fuck these weak ass rappers gossiping like females.
Drake a pussy boy white boy pop singer
lol… Tyga still soft as fuck for dating a 17 yr old.. so what they are just friends that kick it.. U tell me which 24 yr old man u know that chills with a 17 yr old. then he gonna say Drake isnt genuine.. This nigga sound like a BITCH… tatts dont make u hard son.
says the kid claiming Compton when he really from the burbs
just gained a ton of respect for Tyga. real talk from this dude when everybody else bullshitting
real talk? he lied about having an underage girlfriend and still aint say what drake did to make him so salty
@ Free C Murder – My Nigga, how u kno he’s lying? U have a better chance getting C Murder out of jail before U show proof of that ..
So far Tyga has spoke about Drake in a magazine, on twitter and now on the radio. Drake addressed this rat faced herb one time and did it with his raps. Step your bars up Ty, Game ain’t coming to save you this time.
haha Just For Him Calling The Kardashians A Respectful Family Going 2 Make People Feel Some Type Of Way. Do I Think He’s Smashing….”Not Yet”! But Will Sooooooooooooooooooon.
Men Should Stay out Of Females Cat Fights Anyway..Just Watch 2 See If Some Tities Or Ass Gonna Come Out!
HE sounds uneducated. he thinks b/c no black females want to hang out ith him that it is a black thing. lol ……………
Chris is the only reason he is on tour. No one wants to see him and especially the girls that ride for Trey and Chris.
Drake shut him down nicely though, really though, BRAND NEW BERETTA THOUGH!
lol your headline pictures give the real story
Really shows how stupid some of the community on this site is. People are saying shit like, “Tyga is real” or “I gained respect for Tyga” because he talked shit about Drake? Haha are people that retarded? Do they not realize he admitted that he was from the Suburbs, and his parents drove a Range Rover on an MTV show? Fucking DX community has gone to hell.
So because his parents drove a Range Rover and he lived in the suburbs, are you saying he shouldn’t be allowed to rap or he is trying to act gangster when he grew up in a nice neighborhood? Because i don’t understand your angle. Unless you have been around Drake and spoken to him, Tyga has his opinion, you are only a listener to his music which does not tell you enough about someone. Same goes with Tyga
Oh,like YOU are genuine? Fuckin studio gangstas lol!
He is not genuine = I’m salty af he did put me on more. Notice his long awkawrd pause when they said….but he put you on “the motto”.
I think his relationship with Chris Brown influences some feelings he has towards drake. They’re best friends and he kind of riding with his homie, picking sides.
Drake has talent and Tyga is a fly by night tax write off for some label end of story
these light skinted niggas ain’t get the memo. amber and khloe done took over the twitter fuckery for the week. nobody care about y’all beef now.
Somebody tell Tyga to shut the fuck up. I don’t even like Drake music like that but he’s infinitely more talented and been the same dude on wax since his first mix tape. I wouldn’t blame him if he didn’t want to be around a corny mofo like this who’s mixed up with the Kardashian clown show and their crossdressing daddy.
It kind of surprises, and disturbs me that people can’t see the fakeness in Drake. Is it something that’s being overlooked because you like the music, or what? He changes his accent depending on who he’s around, he kisses the asses of damn near every celebrity in the industry, and has them thinking they’re his best friends, he constantly does weird sneak disses in songs and on instagram, he has turned on multiple people he seemed to be cool with, all his slang and dances seem forced like he’s trying to imitate a “cool person”, etc Drake is that one nerdy dude who managed to get popular, and use that popularity to try and manipulate people and become seem as someone he’s clearly not. I’m not on Tyga’s side either, I think he has some fake qualities as well, but I definitely think Drake is one of the fakest rappers in hiphop. I’m not impressed
Amen.
the whole game is fake bruh. not just drake. he just plays the fake shit better than most, until his time runs out, then it will be somebody else
Completely and utterly agree. I take real issue with Drake constantly using the N word. I’m from the UK and I love Hip Hop but never, ever have I used the N word in the same context as African Americans do.
Yes, I’ll sing it in a song (I’m a fan of G Funk, every other word is the N word) but you can’t tell me that a mixed race Canadian with majority white friends is using the N bomb like he’s Jules Winnifield.
So that alone shows how fake this sucka is. Tyga is no better; another middle class boy pretending to be a thug with tattoos all over his face. Concentrate on your rap skills rather than social media!!!
“Yo you hear that new Tyga album? Shit’s fire!” – Said No One Ever
Drake is a delusional rapper.
He’s Not Genuine.. No shit. It comes through in his music.
That interview was real tho.
i like how he presented himself in this interview
Drake is getting a lot of bad rap from everyone these days. Canadians are getting a bad rap about how sincere they are with respect to their actions in America and how they where raised in Canada. This just goes to show America corrupts people and popularity in America comes with a price. Ask Diddy’s hands.
of course this pedophile is not going to admit it
We already knew Drake was fake, but Tyga really needs to stop fuckin 16 year olds lol
I like Tyga but this dude just cannot stop talking about Drake which tells you that he’s CLEARLY jealous of drizzys fame
If Drake doesn’t claim to be someone that he isn’t in ANY of his songs can someone please explain to me how he’s fake? Ppl just hate waaaaaay to much these days..Just give the homie his credit for being a verbal beast
Brothers fight all the time that’s what builds character and Tygas career has come of AGE and he doesn’t want to feel like the lil bro piggy backing…Give Dues I mean The Kid has always had the Potential…but since Drake was Singing New Edition Love songs crying in the Rain…lol The Whole world Went Team Drake…on another note It makes me think…YMCMB has been in the Media a lot as of late Is this all planed out…Family Riff to boost Celebrity and sales…
