No Introduction is the debut album by American rapper Tyga. It was released on June 10, 2008 under Decaydance Records and Young Money Entertainment.[4]
The album was produced by Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy and S*A*M & Sluggo, and featured then-labelmates such as Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes and Alex DeLeon of The Cab. The album identifies Tyga's past effort of Alternative Rap-Rock due to the pressure of the Pop-Rock style required from Decaydance Records label. This was the rapper's "clean" debut attempt, which features no explicit language or references, before his full shift to explicit style of rapping in 2009.
"Diamond Life", was used in the video games of Need for Speed: Undercover and Madden 2009, as well as in the 2009 movie Fighting.
