Tyga - King & Queens
Artist: Tyga
Producer: The Olympicks
Album: Careless World: The Rise of the Last King
Label: YMCMB/Universal Republic
A few years ago (let’s say two) the mere thought of Tyga doing a track with Wale and Nas would have caused the craniums of hip-hop heads worldwide to explode. “You mean the Coconut Juice guy on a track with two of the best lyricists alive?” But with Tyga continuing to musically mature (along with the occasional stripper anthem) and both Wale and Nas diversifying their guest feature list maybe a track like King & Queens isn’t so unexpected after all. Production crew The Olympicks lay down the beat, providing a refreshingly uncomplicated production that contains some real soul. An instrumental like that is apparently enough to inspire Tyga to put his Platinum certified racks down for a moment and display his often underrated microphone skills. Not to be outdone by a youngin’, Wale comes through with a solid verse of his own, followed by some serious heat from the seemingly resurgent Nasty Nas on the back end. So how about it DJBooth Nation? Is King & Queens dope enough to have even the doubters check out Tyga’s Careless World: The Rise of the King album when it drops this Tuesday, February 21? We’ll find out soon in the comments below…

I don't care how much money YMCMB threw at Nas for this guest feature, the end result of this record is superb. Tyga has grown so much as an emcee over the past 3-4 years its incredible. Co-signs or not.

I never thought I would call a Tyga song dope, but this one is. I am guessing that is due mostly to the production and the Nas feature, but anyway this is a solid track.

Although I'd like the whole album to have more of a lyrical side like this, I can at least respect that Tyga can crank it out when he wants.

Tyga ripped this one right here. Wale was a great feature and Nas was Classic! I like the sounds in the beat by the Olympicks. BANGER!

Wasnt sure about the song with nas and wale. But the soothing beat goes well with all 3 and their vocals.

Super-chill. Props to Tyga for progressively improving his lyrical game in the past half decade. Dope sample, super-chill beat.

Wow, that was great! Nice work put in from all three artists. Tyga has built quite a reputation for himself in the past 12 months, I'm looking forward to hearing his album.

I had high expectations after reading the comments
Expectations meant, this was very dope, the Tyga I like WAY more although you gotta see the reasons why a lot of his music wouldn't appeal to you |

I like this record. Hook couldve been better but the concept was good. This record was made for Wale & Nas though. Good choice.
