"Stimulated" (stylized as "$timulated") is a song by American rapper Tyga, and the fifth single from his mixtape Fuk Wat They Talkin Bout (2015). It was produced by Crakwav and uses a sample of "Children" by Robert Miles. The song is a response to the controversy and criticism surrounding Tyga's relationship with then underaged media personality Kylie Jenner. Tyga was 25 years old while Kylie had just turned 18.[1]

Background and composition

In 2014, Tyga and Kylie Jenner began a romantic relationship, which Tyga publicly confirmed when Jenner turned 18 (the legal age of consent in California) in 2015. The news sparked controversy due to their age differences. Tyga responded to the negative publicity with the song,[2] in which he dismisses the criticism of the relationship and describes his sexual exploits with Jenner,[3][4] rapping over a sample of "Children" by Robert Miles.[5] In 2024, Tyga's longtime manager and co-founder of Last Kings, Tarell Meeks, along with associates Heather Sanders (Sorella) & Smacc (TDE) confirmed that Tyga began seeing Kylie Jenner when she was 14 and Tyga was 21. Tarell & Smacc then confirmed that when Kylie Jenner turned 16, they would fly to countries where the age of consent was 16 or below to allow Tyga to have sexual relations with Kylie.[6]

Reception

The song was widely criticized by music critics and the general public alike. It has been viewed as glorification of statutory rape.[5][7] Many particularly disapproved of the line "They say she young, I should've waited / She a big girl, dog, when she stimulated". Casey Lewis of Teen Vogue wrote, "Beyond the words that would land you a week's worth of detention, Tyga is justifying – and possibly even glorifying – his illegal relationship with an underage girl."[8] Ebony called "Stimulated" "the worst song anyone has ever created".[9]

Music video

The music video was released on August 31, 2015. Taking place in an oceanside mansion, it begins with Tyga writing the song's lyrics on paper and rapping them, while seated on a couch.[4][10] Kylie Jenner arrives in a bright green Bentley, sporting a green bomber jacket, white top, ripped jeans, and pink Christian Louboutin heels, as well as a Birkin bag, gold watch and jewelry.[11][12] The couple meet up on a balcony above the beach,[4] where they exchange hugs and kisses.[10][12] Jenner briefly changes her outfit to a blue jumpsuit with a textured coat.[11] Tyga also gives her a piggyback ride in the video.[10][12]
