No Introduction is the debut studio album by American rapper Tyga. It was released on June 10, 2008, by this independent record label Decaydance Records.[4] Recording sessions took place during 2005 to 2008, while the production on the album was handled by Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy and S*A*M & Sluggo, as well as the guest appearances from then-label-mates, such as Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes and Alex DeLeon of The Cab, among others. It was supported by three singles: "Diamond Life" featuring Patty Crash, "Coconut Juice" featuring Travie McCoy, and "AIM".

The album identifies Tyga's past effort of alternative rap rock due to the pop rock style of Decaydance Records label. This was the rapper's "clean" debut attempt, which features no explicit language or references, except of one vague noun use of the word "shit" in the song "Pillow Talkin'" and some explicit language in the deluxe edition tracks, before his full shift to explicit style of rapping in 2009, however, Tyga did use profanity during his early mixtape days, such as Young on Probation.
