Forty dollar ticket to "Rack City?" All aboard. Chances are even if the name Tyga doesn't ring a bell, you still have heard "Rack City" at least once. Tyga---whose stage name is an acronym for Thank You God Always---is taking over the Cunard Centre on Wednesday with an all-ages show, as his Careless World Tour stops off in Halifax. Inescapable and undeniably catchy, the 22-year-old American rapper is following in the footsteps of his record producer Lil Wayne, who helmed his second studio LP Careless World: Rise of the Last King. With a discography that already includes collaborations with his famous cousin Travie McCoy (Gym Class Heroes), Bow Wow, Lil Wayne and Kevin McCall, the future holds promising things for Tyga
