Tyler The Creator Gives Will.I.Am His Flowers On Social Media 10 Years After Didssing Him

[old pig]

dope clip…think I’ll watch the whole interview…I’ve fukked with his music since “goblin” I think it was (is that the one where the album starts off with him rapping/talking to a “therapist”?)…even tho his music isn’t directed at my crowd, me working with ppl his age at the time gave me an appreciation for why he/his music/his group and the whole movement resonated so well with other teenagers…it’s nice to see how his music has matured/developed to him being now an undeniable artist…a lot of ppl thought he was gimmicky at first and I’m not gonna lie, I wouldn’t have gotten/understood the appeal of his music early on if I hadn’t been working with young ppl

*edit*

no I’m wrong about it being “goblin”…it was the “bastard” mixtape cuz I remember it had a red cover

Never forget Will was dead inside when he made this…

Breh looks like this in that video

 

[MJ Truth]

I mean that did kinda start with Will going at him first. Will told him "10 years from now you'll be making music you don't like"

Tyle has grown in popularity and continued to make the type of music he wants

That’s not even a diss though. That’s literally the same shyt old people always telling young people when the young people tell them what they’d do in their position. “You’ll be doing this same shyt when you get to my age.”

it can be insulting/condescending as hell when adults/elders think THEIR mistakes or fukk-ups will transfer onto you…and from the way the story was relayed it seemed like will.i.am was saying that would be tyler’s fate when his stance could’ve/should’ve instead been let me give you some advice to help you avoid what I did and stay true to yourself

You don't need to be convincing me it's not a diss.

Tyler took it that way.

I was 12/13 when Amplified came out and I loved that album

It wasn't till I got older that I learned nikkas trashed it

Perspective is a muthafukka
  

People had smoke for 'Beats, Rhymes & Life' and 'The Love Movement' when they dropped as well. I guess they weren't ready for a more flashy version of Tip or Dilla in general, which is wild seeing how influential and respected he would go on to become.

Tyler is a bytch ass nikka.

Will. I.AM > Tyler as a producer and rapper, and that's facts

 

[Low End Derrick]

Will.I.Am was actually a dope producer. He gave bangers to Game, Nas, Talib, Common, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and quite a few others:



^^^ this should've been a full song

Dont forget this

Other behaviour aside, I like how Tyler and Drake give props to those who inspired them. Genuine fans of the art.

Meanwhile you got rappers from ATL making songs called Area Codes but not knowing who Ludacris is

Literally love when people do this! Musicians from the yesteryears get so much hate and disrespect sometimes so it’s always nice when artists from the past (especially black artists) are given their flowers and are acknowledged in a positive way

 

[Easy-E]

I still don't listen to his music, but, my goodness I'm liking new Tyler

The younger him was a POS and couldn't stand ANYTHING about him

 

[JulesMusic719]

This my fav will.i.am song y'all...



Starts around the 1:40 mark...

I dont think they care for history much over there..there is a disconnect between rap generations.
