Contents

Tycoon was supported by the three singles "All In", "Smile Body Pretty Face" featuring Kodak Black and YG, and "Show Me Love" featuring Tory Lanez. Ty said of the title, "A tycoon is a boss. It came from a Japanese word 'tycoon,' which means 'great lord.' It's the same thing—great boss, the best at your craft". [2]

Background

Ty Dolla Sign collaborated with Kanye West on the 2024 albums Vultures 1 and Vultures 2 . On February 8, 2025, Ye received public condemnation and backlash for his antisemitic rants on the platform X (formerly known as Twitter), including declaring of being a Nazi, and praising Adolf Hitler. Ty posted to his Instagram story, "I do not condone ANY form of hate speech against ANYONE", not name-dropping Ye. [3] This caused a falling out between the two, with Ye claiming the label told Ty what to say, and would "never apologize" for his comments. [4]

In an interview with Complex , Ty stated how he gave tracks to the Vultures project that were intended for his solo album. While their relationship remains undetermined, it was spotted of Ye arriving to the Tycoon album listening party in Los Angeles. [5]

Release and promotion

Ty shared in an interview with Billboard that he "put [his] all" in Tycoon, where fans could expect to "see the growth, the musicality, and it's going to be better than anything that's coming out". [6]

On September 8, 2025, Ty wiped his Instagram account and posted the album trailer. Set in black and white, the narrator explains the meaning behind the word 'tycoon' and concluded with the words, "When I asked, they left me nothing, for greed had consumed them, but they made a crucial mistake: They mistook my sympathy for grace". [7]

Singles

The album's lead single, "All In", was released on June 6, 2025. He performed it on Jimmy Kimmel Live! . [8] The next single, "Smile Body Pretty Face", was released on September 26, 2025, and featured rappers Kodak Black and YG. The accompanying music video premiered the same day, directed by Camera man. [9] The album's third and final single, "Show Me Love" featuring Tory Lanez, was released on October 10, 2025.

Critical reception

Mary Chiney of Beats Per Minute opined how the stack of guest features never outshone Ty Dolla Sign, praising how he "shapes the environment, and the guests orbit it". She stated that although there were sequencing issues and some tracks were repetitive to his earlier works, the project "never loses shape, his ear for detail keeps it afloat". [10]

Commercial performance

Tycoon failed to chart on the Billboard 200 and moved around 8,000 units in its first-week. [11]
