Ty Dolla $ign released his debut album Free TC back in 2015, which he named in support of his brother who is currently serving life sentence for murder. Big TC featured on the album too, and due to Ty$’s popularity, people caught wind of it and it didn’t go down well in prison.
“After Free TC, he just got hella attention and something happened where it got back to them and he ended up getting locked in the hole for a long-ass time, so right now there isn’t a song on Beach House 3 with him,” Ty Dolla $ign told The Guardian in a new interview.
He also talks about how the whole mixtape scene is over in relation to his new project: “Beach House 3 is Beach House the album. So it is an album – not a mixtape. Mixtapes are dead, by the way. People don’t even have CD players anymore.”
