Tyga is hot and he should get support from the west, even if you think he is generic, no need to dump on him, he is trying to make moves and holds down Cali, what else can you ask?Take note. This forum only cares about rappers from Cali who only know how to rap about gangbanging and weed.

I've bumped the album a few times. Some songs I really dig, some songs are wack.
He reminds me of Game in that he's not a particularly talented rapper but he has the ability to make good songs when he's pushed in the right direction. Basically he's Game without Dre. Except without the namedropping, so possibly better.

Why would you spend all kinds of money and marketing on a rapper without talent? To make him sound mediocre?
I’m trying my hand at writing reviews. Wrote this today, let me know what you think….Ever had an artist you expect great things from drop an average project that leaves you disappointed? Enter Tyga, a rapper I expected nothing from who released a decent album that left me pleasantly surprised. To be fair, I didn’t know much of Tyga before giving Careless World a listen. And neither the menacing club anthem Rack City nor the love ballad Far Away show what he’s truly capable of. Coming straight outta Compton to make his major label debut on Young Money, Tyga doesn’t sound like your typical Southern California emcee; Or a Lil Wayne prodigy for that matter. This ends up being a good thing.What carries this album is the combination of smooth production and Tyga’s solid lyrics as he delves into his own life experiences. His topics range from coming up in the game to love and love lost, which could have made for cliché songs if not the sense of honesty he brings along with his confidence on the mic. Tyga’s standout track is without a doubt Let It Show, an ode to life in the spotlight. Over an epically smooth groove, he invites us to “Take a look into Tyga’s eyes/I breath love but inhale the hate bomb.” He shines with a seamless flow and addresses the façade so many rappers put up, asking us ”Serious, look how my face look/How could a man cry while the crowd looks?” It’s in this song where he truly comes into his own, outperforming J. Cole who does his thing as well. Another excellent highlight is Light Dreams, in which Tyga eschews the traditional 3 verse structure in favor of one extended train-of-thought like musing, dropping knowledge like, “Only make moves when your heart’s in it/BIG said it, so I entertain like Cedric.” And entertain he does throughout most of the album. Marsha Ambrosius closes the song and album with a soulful sendoff.Careless World does have its weaker moments, particularly with some of the featured artists. Faded is a song that just doesn’t need to exist, with Tyga’s lyrics devolving to match the slapstick style of Lil Wayne. Nicki Minaj, is well…Nicki Minaj. Though it’s understandable that Tyga’s two biggest label mates are featured, they really do nothing for this album except to remind us it’s Young Money baby. T-Pain makes an appearance at a time when his style is well and truly played out. His feature does nothing for those seeking substance, and I doubt he does much to appeal to the pop crowd either. In spite of these hiccups, Tyga as an artist convinces me that he actually has something to say most of the time. Not surprisingly it’s the moments where he reverts to club music style lyrics that hold this album back. Taken as a whole, the better tracks manage to shine through and show a promising artist worth checking for in the future…as long as his heart’s in it.3/5 ya dig?Highlights: Let it Show, Light Dreams, Kings and Queens, Black Crowns
