"{{tmz_video_0}}&lt;br /&gt;Rapper&lt;strong&gt; Tyga&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#160;enjoyed a cushy upbringing in the Valley -- NOT Compton -- at least that's what the rapper said on a game show back in 2008 ... and TMZ has obtained the unaired footage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The show was called \"Bustas\" -- where&amp;#160;wannabe-rappers compete against each other to see who can embody ugly rap stereotypes the best ... playing borderline-offensive games like \"Guess the Rapper By His Grill\" and \"Is This a Real Rolex?\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tyga appeared on the show ... and immediately sacrificed any semblance of street cred in the process ... claiming&amp;#160;he grew up in a well-to-do household in the Valley, and his parents drove a Range Rover.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Tyga -- who has since claimed he grew up in Compton -- insisted, \"I'm still street.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thankfully for Tyga, the show was never picked up and the clip never made it to air ... until now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The highlight: \"Bustas\" culminates with a freestyle rap, in which the contestants are asked to incorporate buzz words like \"amoeba\" into their raps, and Tyga's so bad ... he gets his ass boo'd off stage.&amp;#160;(For the record, Tyga does not know how to pronounce the word \"amoeba\")&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's pretty bad -- but you should check out the video to see if Tyga actually loses the entire show."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
