Rap may have begun as a genre based around being rugged and raw, however, the role of the rap singer with suave musical stylings is one that has become invaluable. Some of the most infectious music in history has come from a number of melodic artists that have placed their imprint on rap, from TJ Swann to Nate Dogg and T-Pain. These days, the current king of the hooks in rap happens to be Ty Dolla $ign, who has quietly emerged as one of the key collaborators in all of music.

First finding success after appearing on fellow West Coast native YG's 2010 single "Toot It and Boot It," Ty Dolla $ign would ride that wave of success and never look back, signing a record deal with Atlantic Records the following year and unrolling his first string of solo songs. One of those songs, "My Cabana" featuring Jeezy, would catch a substantial buzz, leading to the release of his mixtape series, Beach House. The projects continued to showcase the Cali native's vocal talents and knack for penning addictive compositions.

Since then, Ty Dolla $ign has only added to his resume, with singles like "Paranoid" and "Or Nah" earning him platinum plaques, and his show-stealing appearances on tracks from his contemporaries stamping him as a bona fide star. Success within the world of both pop and hip-hop is a tricky balance, but Ty has proved himself to be more than capable of straddling that line.

Ty Dolla $ign looks to raise the bar once again with his Beach House 3 album, the follow-up to his 2015 solo debut, Free TC. Featuring an array of costars and producers, Beach House 3 is yet another eclectic offering from one of rap's preeminent crooners.

With Ty Dolla $ign's latest offering in heavy rotation, XXL selects the best lyrics from Beach House 3 that are sure to become some your favorites.
