Tyga's had somewhat of a turbulent year. His album The Gold Album: The 18th Dynasty failed to make even the smallest of splashes, he was hit with multiple lawsuits and his on-again off-again relationship with Kylie Jenner overshadowed any of the music he put out. But still, the Young Money rapper is remaining confident. In a sit down interview with Yahoo, Tyga spoke on his beginnings in rap and why his music is unlike any that's currently bing made.

“Even though so many people are doing music, I still feel like what I do is not comparable," he said. "It can’t be duplicated. When you start looking at all the other people, that’s you losing your faith in what you’re supposed to do.”

The piece doesn't reveal much, only that Tyga's publicist prohibited any Kylie questions. Tyga does comment though on past successes, saying that his ambition is carrying him forward.

“Everything that I’ve done to this point doesn’t even matter. When I hear ‘Rack City,’ it doesn’t even matter,” he said. “I’m only doing this to sit with the gods. There’s no other way I see it for myself.”

Tyga had come up previously this month when Pusha T name dropped him in a lyric in what may have seemed like a diss but Pusha later explained as praise.

“I felt he was looking like a genius simply because it takes a lot for you to leave a situation at Cash Money— a label of prominence, with a large history of success,” Push explains. “A lot of artists would have stayed in that situation and carried on with the illusion and with people just assuming that they were doing well because they were amongst that crew.

“To me, Tyga stepped out there and said, ‘I ain’t have a royalty check in God knows when.’ He wasn’t looking to be more famous than rich, and he was open to the world about it.”
