Despite being pictured with the teen on several occasions over the past year, the 25-year-old father of one told a radio show he is not dating Kylie - slamming rumours he left his partner Blac Chyna to be with the Kardashian.
The Make it Nasty singer said: ‘Me and Chyna, we broke up almost close to a year [ago] now, because of the decision we made, and things in our relationship that were not going right, [we] decided to split to raise an emotionally stable kid.’
He added that he had known the Kardashian family before he even met Chyna, 26, who is also the mother of his child.
‘Me hanging with them was nothing new. People just want to make a story out of it.’
Tyga went so far as to say that Kylie is a ‘beautiful young woman,’ whose ‘maturity and mentality is different than a lot of people.’
It appears the rapper was responding to claims made by Kanye West’s ex Amber Rose, that he was indeed dating the young reality star.
She added: ‘He has a beautiful woman and a baby and left that for a 16-year-old who just turned 17.’
