Net Worth of Tyga: Biography

Tyga, aka Micheal Ray Stevenson was born on November 19, 1989, in Compton, California. He remained in that city until he “was about 11, 12,” at which point his family relocated to the neighboring city of Gardena. He was born in Vietnam to parents who were originally from Jamaica. His mother’s maiden name, Nguyen, is Vietnamese, and she was born and raised in Vietnam. He spent his childhood listening to music by artists such as Fabolous, Lil Wayne, Cam’ron, and Eminem, amongst others.

On December 3, 2012, a discussion regarding Tyga’s family life and upbringing was brought up. Tyga has stated that he was brought up in a low socioeconomic area of Compton, but in footage that was leaked from the unaired television show Bustas, he claimed that he grew up in a weaalthy home in San Fernando Valley, where his parents drove a Range Rover. He made these statements in a television show that was never broadcast. He also said that his mother used to call him Tiger Woods when he was a child, which is how he got the moniker. It has been hypothesized that the assertions he made on the show were humorous and should not be taken seriously by the audience.

The lead song, “Deuces,” reached its highest position on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop charts at number one, and peaked at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.

It wasn’t until February 2012 that he released his second studio album, titled “Careless World: Rise of the Last King.” Singles from that album included the number one hit “Rack City,” “Faded,” “Far Away,” and “Make It Nasty.” His third studio album was titled “Hotel Californi,” and it was released in March of 2013. It featured contributions from renowned musicians such as Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, and Wiz Khalifa. Only 5,000 copies of his fourth studio album, titled “The Gold Album: 18th Dynasty,” were purchased after it was published in June of 2015. In July of 2017, he released his fifth album, and in February of 2018, he released his sixth album. In spite of the recent decline in his record sales, Tyga has still managed to sell over 600,000 albums and 12,000,000 digital singles around the world. After a string of dismal sales and terrible reviews for albums one after the other, Tyga’s single “Taste,” which featured Offset and was released in May 2018, reached its highest position on the Billboard Hot 100 at number eight. This was actually his first single to crack the Top 40 since he collaborated with Chris Brown on “Ayo” in 2015. This song was chosen to serve as the lead single for his seventh studio album, titled “Legendary,” which was released in June of 2022.

Relationships

It was on October 5, 2011, at The F.A.M.E Tour After Party with Chris Brown when Tyga first met Blac Chyna. This party event took place at King of Diamonds in Miami. In the music video for “Rack City,” Blac Chyna played the role of leading lady for Tyga. They made their relationship public on November 9, 2011, and were featured on the cover of Urban Ink magazine the following March. The couple had born to them their first child, a son named King Cairo Stevenson, on October 16, 2012, the same day that Tyga bought a mansion in Calabasas, California, for his new family that cost $6.5 million. Both of the parents have tattoos of their son’s name on their bodies. Blac Chyna announced on her website in December 2012 that she and Tyga had become engaged. 2014 was the year that the couple divorced.

Tyga has stated unequivocally that he is dating reality TV star Kylie Jenner, putting an end to months of rumors to the contrary. However, their connection caused a stir in the headlines due to the significant age gap between the two of them, and it was rumored that they had been dating since Jenner was just 16 years old. In the state of California, the age of majority is defined as 18 years old. Photos of him and Jenner seen holding hands in Mexico went viral a few days after her 18th birthday, just after she had turned 18. The pair went their separate ways in April of 2017. Demi Rose Mawby, a well-known figure in the British social media scene, was Tyga’s girlfriend for a brief period of time in 2016.

Tyga was taken into custody by the authorities in October 2021 and charged with assault on a family member.

Although Tyga has resided in a number of mansions in the Calabasas, California area, each one of them was rented. Tyga has not exactly been a model tenant in a few of these residences, and this is not his fault. One of Tyga’s previous landlords filed a lawsuit against him in June 2015 for rent arrears totaling $80,000 that he had not paid. The total sum that was outstanding, including interest and penalties, was $124,000. In July of 2015, Tyga was served with a lawsuit by a different landlord for failing to pay rent totaling $50,000 at a different residence located in Calabasas.
