Tyga: "I think, whatever makes you happy in life, you gotta do it. You can't plan in life too much."
Tyga: "Music changes every three months. There's always new artists coming out. There's always new sounds. There is always a new hit coming out. You gotta stay relevant as much as you can and feed your fans as much as you can."
Tyga: "The best career advice I've gotten is to stay focused, keep moving forward."
Tyga: "As long as you know yourself and you got good people around you and you passionate about what you do, that's all that matters because at the end of the day, you go to sleep with the people you love, you wake up with the people you love, and you spend your time with the people you love."
Tyga: "I have a lot of tattoos. I probably have over 100 tattoos. I don't know. It's just a mural... a collage."
Tyga: "I'm making music that I love and I want to hear. At the same time, things like making money, making crazy money - you gotta find ways to reach to everybody but uplift everybody."
Tyga: "I try to be cool with everybody, but sometimes, everybody just has different personalities, motives, and different characters."
Tyga: "I dropped out of high school when I was, like, 15, so I just focused on doing music. It's all I wanted to do; I didn't want to work or anything else. I took all the negativity and obstacles that came with life, and I just put it in the music."
Tyga: "I can make any type of music, so I wouldn't want to describe myself as having one type of sound. I think music is about keeping it diverse."
Tyga: "I've always been a fan of Saint Laurent because I like how their jeans fit on me, but as far as high fashion, I don't wear too much high fashion. I like more streetwear and baggier stuff."
Tyga: "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you do, you'll be successful."
Tyga: "Tattoos, for me, are like a timeline of my life. I could look at a certain tattoo, and it reminds of me of a certain time in my life and why I got that tattoo."
Tyga: "God puts us in places. It's for you to make the decision whether you go left or right."
