Tyga On MTV's Bustas "I Had It EASY Growing Up..."

Rapper Tyga enjoyed a cushy upbringing in the Valley -- NOT Compton -- at least that's what the rapper said on a game show back in 2008 ... and TMZ has obtained the unaired footage.
The show was called "Bustas" -- where wannabe-rappers compete against each other to see who can embody ugly rap stereotypes the best ... playing borderline-offensive games like "Guess the Rapper By His Grill" and "Is This a Real Rolex?"
Tyga appeared on the show ... and immediately sacrificed any semblance of street cred in the process ... claiming he grew up in a well-to-do household in the Valley, and his parents drove a Range Rover.
But Tyga -- who has since claimed he grew up in Compton -- insisted, "I'm still street."
Thankfully for Tyga, the show was never picked up and the clip never made it to air ... until now.

[@HempBraum]

it's called manipulative editing. they just take random shots and reactions and add them out of context to create false character subtext ie fan favorites vs antagonists. Reality TV 101 It's how they psychologically condition you to like and dislike people

[@TheNBAHistory]

Dude corny lmaooooooooo

[@BennyBundles]

Lol I think I kinda believe what Tyga said about this video with the producers telling him to say that cuz if his parents bought him a Range Rover, couldn’t they have afforded a real chain? Lol

[@Godloveszaza]

They fasho told him to say that. Mtv is known for faking alot of videos especially mtv cribs. They use to have rappers rent houses and Cars nd portray it as they own. 50 cent and redmans house is the only houses and cars that wasn't rented they mtv cribs is literally the only real 1s outta all the thousands of mtv cribs videos. So tyga aint lying most likely

[@billblaski9523]

They didn't buy HIM a Range Rover, they owned one themselves

He wasn’t even wack for his age, he knew How to freestyle which most of the rappers nowdays struggle with doing, he wasn’t even a rapper back then just a 15 year old kid. He just did know How to pronounce that weird Word.

And we made him rich too ..... bro 'Rack City' im so fkn shamed of us

[@2active4u]

Tyga did this ”I’m from the Valley” thing for money. They payed him some big cash for say that, and when you are young, you don’t think. He’s from the hood and he grew up with a normal life, he wasn’t rich but his family (his mom) had enough money for them to liv off. There wasn’t no ”Range Rover”. And the sold his soul thing is also a lie, him being successful doesn’t mean that he sold his soul, people just made sh*t up about him as they have done his whole career. It’s always been ”cool” to hate on Tyga when in reality, you a fool for hating on a grown mans success.

[@ssspit]

he literally worships satan... that part is the most obvious
