Tyga Already Planning Second 'No Introduction' Single; Compares LP to Potato Chips

The debut album by Tyga hasn't even dropped yet, but the cousin of Gym Class Heroes' Travis McCoy is already trying to figure out what his second single will be.

Tyga's No Introduction is due June 10, and there's a ton of buzz surrounding the release thanks to the sizzling single "Coconut Juice," which features McCoy. The accompanying video has Lil Wayne, Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz and more to boot.

Well, as it turns out, Tyga already has the single's follow-up in mind, even though it likely won't hit radio until the fall. As he revealed to Buzznet on the red carpet of the season finale of "The Hills" in Los Angeles on Monday, he's planning to peg "Teenage Love" as the release's next radio tune.

"Evan [Taubenfeld] produced that," Tyga said, referring to the former Avril Lavigne guitarist and current Black List Club frontman. "That might be the second single that's dropped in the fall, when everybody goes back to school, when everybody doesn't want a girlfriend or boyfriend anymore, 'cause it's not summer. So probably around September we'll drop that."

Tyga, whose "Coconut Juice" was featured earlier this month as MTV's Jam of the Week, revealed that Taubenfeld actually produced "a couple of joints" for the LP, which was preceded by two free mixtapes that were released Tuesday and last month. He said the full-length – which is dropping on Wentz' Decaydance Records (the imprint is headed up by McCoy) – will appeal to just about anybody ... especially people who have issues.

"It's just a lot of original stuff on there," Tyga said. "It's fun, but at the same time, I got my life stories and I got problems that people go through that could help people get through. Basically, it's like, you know how you buy a big bag of chips? It's like, the album is not a big bag of chips. It's a variety, like the multi-pack, like all types of chips. It's a taste of everything, you know what I'm saying? I didn't just make it for one type of people or these types of persons right here. It's for everybody to enjoy."

The album will also feature contributions from another Fall Out Boy, Patrick Stump – repaying a favor, perhaps, for Tyga's appearance on FOB's "It Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" remix at last year's VMAs. He lent his production skills to the effort and is featured on "Don't Regret It Now."

Weezy and McCoy also appear elsewhere on the album.

"I talked to him earlier today," Tyga said of his cuz. "He told me to be good at this event and not to drink and stuff. I don't drink or smoke anyway."
