On Friday (July 3), he&#8217;ll drop the first single from the new era titled &#8220;GAVE U RACKS,&#8221; which finds him leaning into singing over a synth-wave beat.<\/p>\n<p>A few weeks prior, he shared a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DZgJowBmT8-\/?hl=en&amp;img_index=2\" target=\"_blank\">preview of another 1980s-inspired song<\/a> alongside Fenix Flexin, whose current single &#8220;Rubberz&#8221; also leans into the synth-pop sound. In the clip, the pair continue experimenting with the sounds of that era on a song they&#8217;re calling &#8220;LAVI$H.&#8221; The clip received a crazy response online, racking up over 13 million views and 15,000 comments as of this writing.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s currently unclear whether the song will be a single for Fenix or for $TARFACE. <\/p>\n<p>Tyga\u2019s last full project was <em>NSFW<\/em> in 2025, which featured appearances from the likes of Big Sean, Flo Milli, Lil Wayne, Shenseea, Cher, Lil Tjay and Ty Dolla $ign. The effort marked his first solo release in six years and stayed within his usual rap sound, making this $TARFACE shift feel like a clear left turn from where he\u2019s been sitting for some time. <\/p>\n<p>Check out Tyga&#8217;s new look and sound below.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align:center\">See Tyga&#8217;s New Look as $TARFACE<\/h3>\n<p><div class=\"ep-embed-content-wraper insta-grid\"><div class=\"ose-instagram-feed ose-uid-e1def11d52f1fe8249c46af0b7b52921 ose-embedpress-responsive\" style=\"width:600px; height:550px; max-height:550px; max-width:100%; display:inline-block;\" data-embed-type=\"InstagramFeed\"><p style=\"text-align:center;height:100%;display:flex;justify-content:center;align-items:center;margin:0;flex-direction: column;\">To enable full Instagram embedding experience, please add your access token by navigating to: <b>Dashboard > EmbedPress > Settings > Sources > Instagram<\/><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"ep-embed-content-wraper insta-grid\"><div class=\"ose-instagram-feed ose-uid-c3c254e60bf181dee55f6ab10df340fe ose-embedpress-responsive\" style=\"width:600px; height:550px; max-height:550px; max-width:100%; display:inline-block;\" data-embed-type=\"InstagramFeed\"><p style=\"text-align:center;height:100%;display:flex;justify-content:center;align-items:center;margin:0;flex-direction: column;\">To enable full Instagram embedding experience, please add your access token by navigating to: <b>Dashboard > EmbedPress > Settings > Sources > Instagram<\/><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"photogallery-title\">See Every <em>XXL<\/em> Freshman Inducted Into the Freshman Class Over the Years<\/h2>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tyga is stepping into a new lane with the introduction of his &#8220;alter-ego&#8221; $TARFACE\u2013which seems to be a play off of the 1980s pop culture fixture, Scarface.
