98.111.209.15 (talk) 18:46, 16 February 2016 (UTC)== Legal Issues Edit ==

I am a little concerned by the sentence found under "4.1 legal issues" which states the following:

"Tyga was accused of pedophilia after direct messaging a 14 year old girl on the photo sharing social network Instagram."

The article that is referenced does not make mention of any allegations of pedophilia, nor do any other news articles I found about the incident. The article was simply stating that Tyga had been messaging a 14 year old girl via Instagram who he thought was 17 years of age - leaked messages show that she told him she was 17 not 14. I believe it is quite slanderous, misleading, and inaccurate to have such an allegation listed. Maybe we could change it to what can actually be shown in evidence, something like:

"In January 2016, a 14 year-old girl stated she felt "feel uncomfortable" after Tyga repeatedly messaged him via the social network Instagram. According to his manager, Tyga wanted to FaceTime her to "talk business and see her sing" – while sitting in the studio with producers. Text messages obtained by TMZ show that the girl claimed to 17 years old, not 14."

== Potential new section needed or sub-section under Controversy; 'Pedophilia'?

There's been multiple disturbing instances bought to light of Tyga trying, and successfully, dating and having sex with underage girls. Three times he's been outed for trying to get with extremely young girls on Instagram and now he, admittedly, started a sexual relationship with Kylie Jenner when she was 15 that finally just ended. Earlier allegations were shot down by the fan/moderator of this page. I do not see how it can be argued against at least a "Controversy" inclusion when he admittedly has sex with minor female children. I put just one of many references on this subject, there have been hundreds of well documented displays of people outraged at him for this, 'relationship.'

His name is a backronym??
"his stage name Tyga (a backronym for Thank You God Always)": that means that he chose the name first (perhaps from e.g. tiger) and only later decided that it stood for the God thing. Is that what is really intended? How do we know he didn't originally choose the name based on the God thing? In that case it would be an acronym, not a backronym.While Tyga is in quarantine he is making funny videos on tiktok Equinox ◑ 23:25, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

Lead section containing "death prediction"
The March 7, 2021 edit of this article by "I am RedoStone" adds a sentence to the first paragraph of the lead section which says as follows: "He will not die on March 12, 2021, since 2021 Vision is fake". This is the sole mention he added of this YouTube video from user "2021 VISION", dated February 22, 2021, which supposedly predicts the death dates of several known public figures. The first prediction implies that Tyga may pass away on March 12, however it is not known whether this video's death predictions will really occur. Since this article got semi-protected per WP:BLP, I ask that this above mentioned sentence be removed from the article per WP:RELIABLE, as these predictions can't be considered true.

with

Page Source line 148 and lines 188 have disageeing statements line 148 states "selling 5,000 units in it's first week, and then line 188 goes on to say the same album sold roughly 2,000 unites its first week. It would be better stated to delete the sentence in line 188 regarding the units sold and to stop the paragraph in line 148 when it says it's his lowest selling album to date, Until the actual true value is obtained it should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanpan21 (talk • contribs) 23:31, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
