He broke it with Chomakopia by taking 3 years instead of 2

I thought we were getting something insane when he took extra time but it was just another album

I casually like Tyler this post success era. I think my issue is that I don't know who his music is for. I've never saw Tyler as a bragging type of rapper. His new song is cool, but he's not creative with writing about how he's trying to make money. There's nothing interesting about his success raps unlike Drake with a story surrounding his career.

lol Tyler tells you his story in plenty of times in every album, idk what ya’ll be hearing. his music is speaks to a lot of young black males either his age or younger since you know…he is one

at least be funny with ur bait

there’s no story surrounding the man who made OF at 15

Idk. Maybe it's just this meme when it comes to late stage success raps for Drake vs Tyler. I prefer Tyler as the underdog and up until Igor. I know he has stories, I've been listening since Goblin era. Maybe I've just don't like his sound anymore

maybe that’s just you. Tyler transitioning to what he’s been doing since Call Me is exactly what I’ve wished for as a long time fan. It’s the most creative take on bragging about your success in recent times. Not many artists have songs like Lemonhead, Massa, Rise, Dogtooth, Sorry Not Sorry, Rah Tah Tah, Balloon, Stop Playing With Me, etc.

I just don’t understand how niggas can hear the range in just those few songs and feel compelled to bring up Drake in comparison. they operate in two entirely different lanes of rap sounds, with Drake leaning towards more towards trap

Had no idea this was even a thing honestly so that’s on me

No worries fam

it sounds like you simply outgrew his music/persona as a whole . it can happen suddenly

I rocked with Tyler too long for that to be it, a lot of people felt the same thing with Chroma/Dont Tap era. You even got his biggest fans in here saying he gotta slow down. This isn’t just fans outgrowing, something ain’t the same.

i feel that. it felt strange attending chroma tour. i fw some songs but dont feel any attachment to them at all

I mainly went to enjoy seeing him go thru his catalogue

I can see how GNX inspired the general concept and surprise release of DTTG but Tyler put his own spin on it with the 80's LA b-boy aesthetic & the album just kinda having its own general sound

tyler get uncle charlie on the horn cause you need him rn

Still the influence is way too obvious

And the same with Chromokopia being clearly influenced by Morale which Tyler loved.

Tyler really let himself fall into the J Cole YG bag of just following Kendrick’s lead

Sag Harbor is nuts man

These joints getting pushed as new singles on Apple big time

As someone who grew up on mixtapes Nd freestyles and I understand times have changed, it’s thirsty to release a Kendrick freestyle as a single and promote it aggressively.

Let me guess, this is somehow produced arranged and composed by Tyler Okonma too? If he said it about Call Me then f*** it say you composed this too lol

That Guy dropped on Christmas 2024, it’s not going to be a single on his next album. It’s just a loosie that he finally decided to put on streaming

I mean, he's been following somebody else's lead for most of his career. Eminem/Pharrell, so what if Kendrick the latest inspiration?

hope he gets back to Call Me level.

Kinda surprised this thread has been so active tbh. Both tracks have been out for a while, and this isn’t the first time Tyler uploaded his loosies to streaming, I really don’t think we are at the beginning of a new Tyler album era .

No s*** lol

But typically a loosey being uploaded on streaming isn’t given the Best New Releases type of push. These songs are presented on streaming as new singles

It was even a lot of people itt who never heard them
