Ty Dolla $ign describes his music as “R&B you can fuck to, not make love to”—raw, sexy, and unapologetic. Hailing from South Central LA and steeped in musical lineage (his dad was in funk band Lakeside, his uncle in the Isley Brothers), Ty’s multi-instrumental talents shine in his breakout 2012 mixtape Beach House, blending drugs, sex, and party vibes. Complex calls him a lighter, promising alternative to The Weeknd. His upcoming album Free TC is highly anticipated, and Beach House 2 features guests like Kid Cudi, Post Malone, Kanye West, Anderson .Paak, and more, continuing his rise as one of LA’s hottest artists.
