HOOKAH TYGA ALBUM COVER FULL
In an average review, PopMatters said "the album is full of songs that falter either for a lack of a guiding beat or because of misguided lyrics that carry little purpose On '4 My Dawgz', Lil Wayne delivers a painful-sounding few bars, describing his 'going crazy', which is an apt feeling after listening to the ten songs preceding it." Commercial performance įollowing nearly a full week of streaming and three days of sales via iTunes, The Gold Album: 18th Dynasty failed to reached on the Billboard 200 it sold only 2,200 copies during the tracking week. In a negative review, Meaghan Garvey of Pitchfork wrote "Tyga doesn't even sound like he's having fun here the prevailing mood is one of vague bitterness, directed at everyone, but particularly women." Garvey further lamented that the songs " Hookah", " Wait for a Minute", "Make It Work" and "40 Mill" were not part of the album's final track listing.
HOOKAH TYGA ALBUM COVER PROFESSIONAL
The second single "Pleazer" featuring guest appearance from American rapper Boosie Badazz, was released June 12, 2015, but neither of the singles from the album charted.Ĭritical reception Professional ratings Aggregate scoresĪt Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from music critics, the project has received an average score of 45 based on 4 reviews, signifying "mixed or average reviews". On May 19, 2015, the lead single of the album was released, titled "Hollywood Niggaz". However the two singles ended up not being on the album. The song features a guest appearance from American rapper Young Thug, while the production was handled by London on da Track. The album's second announced single, " Hookah", was released on April 9, 2014. The song features a duet between Tyga and Canadian singer Justin Bieber, while the production was handled by Maejor. The album's first announced single, " Wait for a Minute", was released on October 22, 2013. This is why the track list was short and concise in terms of number of songs. The reason being Tyga's previous label was not allowing him to release them as they had ownership of the songs. In addition to that, some songs that Tyga intended to have on this project had to be removed: "Hookah" featuring Young Thug, "Wait for a Minute" with Justin Bieber, "We Don't Die", "Erryday", "40 Mill", "Real Deal", "Make It Work", and some unreleased collaborations with Future, Drake and Chris Brown were all not present on the album. The mixtape differs from other Tyga projects as it was not released physically by CD or vinyl pressings, which could've contributed to the mixtape's lackluster commercial performance. As of June 2015, these pre-order tracks were removed, however, and were not included in the album's final track listing.

On January 8, 2015, the project was availably made for the pre-order on iTunes, including two promotional singles: "Make It Work" and "40 Mill" (with the production handled by West and Mike Dean) to be released on January 27, 2015. The production on the album would be provided by Mike Dean, alongside his frequent collaborator Jess Jackson. On May 1, 2014, Tyga made a tweet, stating that the project would be executively produced by Kanye West.

Kanye West was the executive producer of the project.
