Tyga's aptly titled debut album No Introduction is set for release this spring. The lead single "Coconut Juice," produced by SAM & Sluggo (Gym Class Heroes, Method Man) is a track just screaming to take over radio. Tyga explains the meaning behind the unusual phrase. "I don’t drink alcohol, so at parties I would just walk around with a cup mixed with whatever else I could find. When people asked what I was sipping on I would say 'coconut juice' because it sounded funny. So I made a song about it."
The album also features diverse production from Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy, The Roots, Lupe Fiasco) and Stress (Ghostface Killah, Cassidy) as well as appearances by Stump, Travis, & Lil Wayne. Ladies and gentleman, meet the most famous unknown artist in music, someone who needs no introduction: Tyga.
