Exactly. Contributing to the irony of him saying what he said

Drake invented

Not really...again I feel like he's talking about those kinda rappers who been popping up on Tiktok and s*** who are very clearly only in this rap s*** to make some money off of mocking it.

Tyler got into rap because he genuinely enjoyed that and making music, and wanted to make a real career out of it.

Niggas pretending HEY im JP 😃 is the same as im a walking f***in paradox era Tyler to play contrarian man f*** these stupid ass remedial niggas

You know what's funny. Niggas on here will be quick to s*** on Tyler and call him and his music "mysterious".

A lot of Tyler's music (outside of at least B******, Goblin, Cherry Bomb) not that left field that most niggas on here make it out to be.

But then turn around and praise JPEG, when his whole persona and music embodies the "mysterious" persona.

The nigga literally has a project called "scaring the hoes"

Tyler is a good musician I was just feeling hateful

been a theme for a long time

I refuse to have an opinion on said thread until the whole actual interview comes out.

Just wanna say @AmoryBlain one of the realest and funniest niggas on this site that LA post had me DYING yesterday

Because no one wants to be MJ level
= social media made it so MJ level never happens again anyways

Best rap album of last year.

Rappers dont make that much money off tiktok crodie

Love Tyler

You’re valid though tbh

I mean john lennon/beatles got killed (NOT literally) for saying they (beatles) were bigger than jesus and nobody took it as “oh that’s just an image thing” lolololol

This is a crazy post considering this process is essentially the genesis behind most of our electronic drum kits that exist today.

its human to wanna be accepted by everybody but doing so in ur 30's when you achieved sm is crazy to me

like in one breath hes "idgaf about nothing i am who i am" but u have one interview where hes talking tough tryna bully rap niggas to accept him, then u have another interview like this where hes s***ting on ppl for not being musicians

those same ppl u wanna be accepted by could care less if they are seen as musicians or not bro

i know hes saying its targetted towards those who explicitly say they dont care about the art they just stacking money but its like, jesus christ who cares if u make music youre a musician, its starting to just sound like elitism. its great that he plays piano but he really acts like hes stevie when he's obviously a talented self taught, play everything by ear dude

hes acting like trained musicians can't s*** on his playing and go to motifs just because he strictly compares himself to fl studio piano roll warriors instead of maybe other pianists.

idk it just reeks of this weird "i'm better than you but i still want to be accepted by you" its honestly crazy

a big part of his songwriting is this clnflict between ego and insecurity and probably the biggest thing he gets from kanye by far, but its like, is there any other topics u have outside of this and unrequited love?

bruh needs to chill and just work on his craft, hes cool but slandering the genre that made him the way he does just bc he can play some interesting chord voicings with ease is mad corny and i wish he got over himself and was as comfortable with being himself as he says he is

DO YOU HEAR THOSE CHORDS???

Like shut up nigga

a lot of ppl are understandably defending him bc yes i get it black musicianship is at a low in the mainstream, and regardless if raps hold on the billboard is wavering its still by far the definitive representation of black mainstream music for the past 3 decades, maybe 4

i just dont like dude s***ting on rappers for lacking musicianship when its a way more complex issue than just "niggas dont care about music no more"

feels like he's being dense just to s*** on niggas, when theres real socio-economic reasons for the lack of musicianship

the monologue that introduces this album is such a well put explanation for this phenomenon, and i urge anyone to listen to this

tyler has just become so out of touch, he really is like any other pull yourself from the boot straps capitalist and acts like every kid just needs to work on their craft and they'll find their clancy lol its such bullshit and i dont know why more ppl dont see thru the corn

no ones denying his talent

i love his music always will but its corny to me to be all "i'm better than these other negroes! thank you clancy 🥹" than act fake tough, then still wanna be accepted by them its just insanity

"im not a rapper im an artist"
"im not a rapper im a rockstar"
"im not a rapper im a trapper"

that s*** be killing me

ofc frank s***s on most of them but my point is even just recording something someone else wrote takes some musicality

u missing my point lol i love odd future. im saying stuff can be labeled as "meme music" or have a generally unserious tone and still be good. Tyler of all people should know that, so its funny he's saying this s*** now.

I'm taking Tommy Richman over Frank Sinatra

there isnt a lot of financial incentive to make great music and quality art anymore though

young consumers just kinda want background s***
