I caught this tooListening to this again -- there's lowkey 00's easter eggs all over this.
Tyler using the Lloyd Banks flow on 'Lumberjack', The 'How We Do' interpolation and I'm that I only just caught that his flow on 'Safari' is a blatant shoutout to DOOM.

Finally gave this a listen at the gym.
Tyler doesn't get the credit he deserves in hip-hop. I always thought his production was good, but he has improved so much over the years as well as his lyrics.
Flower Boy, Igor, and Call Me If You Get Lost are all equally good and all three have high replay value which has become more and more of a rarity in the rap game.
Also like Kanye, Tyler knows how to actually construct a song. Not just throw some verses on a beat.It's some weird shyt, low-key a lot of reasons people love Kanye for are reasons I find in spades with Tyler. Except maybe the revolutionize the industry part. But breh really is a genius...and I used to hate Odd future with a passion.
This mf can produce and (reasonably) rap for real. And I don't think he has ghost writers either.
tyler is better than kanye to me but since he a young bul, and a troll, older brehs prolly wont give him too much creditIt's some weird shyt, low-key a lot of reasons people love Kanye for are reasons I find in spades with Tyler.

Album is dope.
It's crazy how he just took the beat for "2 Cups Of Blood" for "Lumberjack" though.
Fred.
At first I thought he just used the same sample....nah, he literally took the beat.
It's been so long since I ran that album.
I almost listened to it again after listening to the Prince Paul podcast too.
Tyler being the weird kid at school who is over '6 Ft Deep' is absolutely on brand though
If he flips 'Freak The Sorceress' too
