Hip-Hop powerhouses Tyga and YG dropped their highly anticipated collaborative project HIT ME WHEN YOU LEAVE THE KLUB: THE PLAYLIST through Last Kings Music / 4Hunnid Records / EMPIRE. The electrifying effort showcases the incomparable chemistry between the duo by highlighting the classic sounds that fans have come to know and love from the artists in conjunction with a newly ignited dynamic sound.

When asked about the project, Tyga and YG describe “the playlist” as delivering an unforgettable compilation with vibes fit for a night out.
The final output features 14 tracks and marks an unwavering delivery from these two legends defining the new West Coast sound and joining forces for their debut project to the world. Adding timeless iconic flare, we see features from Hip-Hop greats and fan favorites Lil Wayne featured on “Brand New,” with a snippet from none other than Snoop Dogg, and the unmatched energy of Busta Rhymes gracing the hook of the record “Big One” midway through the project.
No strangers to collaborating on viral chart-topping hits for the past decade and creating captivating party anthems like Go Loko ft. Jon Z, Run ft. 21 Savage and BIA, and BOP ft. Blueface. Earlier this summer, Tyga and YG came together for several singles ahead of the project release including "Platinum", “Party Time”, and “West Coast Weekend" ft. Blxst.

Saweetie delivers her ‘Birthday’ vibes at ‘Shot O’Clock’
Whether you’re here for the star-studded appeal of her ‘Birthday’ single with YG and Tyga or need Saweetie to yourself with ‘Shot O’Clock,’ the double rollout is very impressive.
Grammy®-nominated artist Saweetie releases two new singles that are sure to make waves in music and pop culture. She joins forces with fellow rap luminaries YG and Tyga for the club-ready new single “Birthday” and turns all the way up on “Shot O’ Clock.” True to form, the Cali MC's latest smashes sizzles with bravado and suggestive innuendo — making it the perfect soundtrack to any celebration. That joyous tone comes through in the accompanying “Birthday” video, which finds the trio ready to party.
“Comin’ live on my birthday, spendin’ hundred racks on a new chain,” Saweetie raps over a pulsing bassline. Her collaborators then tackle a verse a piece, each putting their own spin on the swaggering anthem. The final result is the kind of unstoppable club monster that demands people to move.
In the track's suitably slick video, Saweetie serves eye-candy and attitude on her birthday and it’s clear she’s in control. Always the life of the party and a Goddess in true form, the video gives us a glimpse into lavish lifestyle and birthday shenanigans.
The follow-up track, “Shot O’Clock,” is a flip of Suzanne Vega's seminal "Tom's Diner." It’s an upbeat nightclub anthem capturing the energy of partying all night long with friends. Since day one, Saweetie has shown an innate ability to captivate with her bold delivery and addictive, tell-it-like-it-is lyricism. Both songs demonstrate her versatile talent, seamlessly switching between punchy rap bars and catchy hooks. These two releases are just a taste of what we can expect from her highly anticipated debut album. With “Birthday” and “Shot O’ Clock,” the hip-hop heavyweight ups the ante by delivering bangers that’ll be in high rotation at parties for years to come.
Saweetie, YG, and TYGA will perform “Birthday” when they hit the road this fall for the “STR8 to the Klub Tour.” Spanning 13 West Coast cities in North America, the California rappers will also enlist Kamiyah, Wallie The Sensai, and DJ Vision as supporting acts.

West Coast rapper Tyga has plenty to talk about these days. From gearing up to drop a new studio album to teaming up with Los Angeles crooner Doja Cat for their new ‘Freaky Deaky’ anthem, the former Young Money superstar chops it up with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe on New Music Daily and doesn’t hold back.
The interview hits hard and while we await the official visual from the discussion, check out 7 key quotes from the chop up session.
1. Tyga Tells Apple Music “Freaky Deaky” Is The First Single From A New Album Which is 80% Percent Done and Tracking For a Early Summer Release...
So this is the first single from my album that I'm working on, and sometimes I look up and I'm like, "Damn, I got like eight singles," not intentionally, but just because I'll hear certain beats or I'll hear certain songs or have a idea and then I'll just make that record, and then I'm compiling songs and I realize like, "Oh, maybe this would sound good cohesively with a album.” I think from where I'm trying to take it, what the new album sounds like sonically, I feel like this was the right lead single. And with her, she's killing it right now. I'm about 80% done with the album. Hopefully... Probably sometime early summer, I'm thinking.
2. Tyga Tells Apple Music What He Appreciates About Doja Cat…
She's a true artist. And I think we see that from her outfits, her lives, her TikToks, but that's what makes her her and she's a real true artist and that's what I appreciate about her.
3. Tyga Tells Apple Music About His History and Chemistry with Doja Cat…
Me and her, the first collab that we ever, it never came out, it was a long time ago before she really blew up. And then "Juicy" was the first real collab that the world seen and I felt like the chemistry was so good there. Working with her is real easy. It's like working with Chris. I feel like Chris and Lil Wayne are two people that I can go in the studio with and make a great record in 30 minutes.
4. Tyga Tells Apple Music Who Will Be Featured On His Forthcoming Album…
Doja's on the album. Who else is on the album? Of course, Chris [Brown] is on the album. I definitely know where I want to go with the rest of it. I'm waiting on two features that I really, really want.
5. Tyga Tells Apple Music What He’d Do Differently If He Was Just Starting His Career…
If I can go back to the beginning, I would love to because I would come in the game with a different mentality. Would be certain of my vision. I think I came in the game so young, I was 17 when I got signed to Young Money, I was young, and my vision was whatever I saw Lil Wayne doing. My vision was just go to the studio. I really didn't know myself as an artist. I really didn't have a vision for myself, but I just wanted to just do music. I love music. And I feel like you look at somebody like Kanye, I was watching his Netflix documentary and it was like he came in the game, he knew his vision, he knew who he was and he stuck to that.
6. Tyga Tells Apple Music About His Early Days With Young Money and Lil Wayne…
it seemed like it was yesterday. It was crazy to be around because it was a competition within itself. It's like the world seen Young Money as one way, but it was like, "I got to beat whoever on this song. I got to get my verse done the fastest because Wayne is already done." I didn't even see him write the song, but it pushes you and that's what I learned. And I feel like that's what makes you great, you need people around you that are better than you. And I like working with people that I feel are better than me in certain aspects, whether it's singing, whether it's pockets, whether it's... Because it makes me push harder and it challenges me to not want to sound the same or do the same thing.
7. Tyga Tells Apple Music How He Feels About Fame…
I like being able to have access to do what I want with my life, but see the thing about me is I'm not very, very super social. That's why I don't do a lot of interviews, you don't see me in pictures with artists everywhere, every event. I'm very like... I like being at the house or I like traveling a lot. I'm like really in my head all the time and shit. I'm the opposite of trying to be famous or doing things that somebody would do to be famous. It's like, obviously I've been in relationships that have put me in a different light and controversy and I'm always surrounded by a lot of things and in the news. But also music, music is the one driving force. And it's like, I always look at when I dropped Taste, I knew like, all right, I'm going to wait until the sound of music is ready and I'm going to wait until the right time. And I'm just going to drop this one record and then that's it. I'm going to sit back and wait for a year, two years, because I didn't really drop anything prior to that for a year, maybe two years.
