I don't blame anyone who thinks he still trolls and doesn't actually listen to this man. I mean look at this nikka. The way he move, dresses ,styles his hair, even his mask choice is some troll shyt. Those teeth in the thumbnail look like some troll shyt. He comes off as a whole troll adult even if he doesn't rap that way anymore. Yall forget who powerful Imagery is. With all that being said...THIS NIIGGA IS BUNS. HAD A SPRARK WHEN HE STARTED TYPE shyt.

Tyler slowly distancing himself from LGbt and his gay alter ego persona :banderas:

Come on home, breh

I think you’re in the clear now :youngsabo:


I noticed that too. He originally starting doing that shyt when he was about to get cancelled for his homophobic lyrics in the early 2010s. He was close to being out of here. Was getting all types of backlash.

People forget that Tyler was up before Kendrick or Drake. Solo album dropped 2009. Huge following from the jump and multiple business ventures early on in his career. Nicca is very wealthy. 2 Best Rap album Grammy Awards and just dropped another contender. Crazy his music career is peaking higher than ever at this point.

He was not up before Drake.

His first album b*stard was out, but he didn't get a real buzz until Yonkers and that was on Goblin, his second album.

Drake was poppin by then.

So Far Gone dropped in 2009. Odd Future dropped 2008. You’re right about Tyler’s solo buzz with Yonkers, but he already had impact with Odd Future. I meant to say that he hit the scene before Drake.

Gained a huge following quickly. Loiter Squad in 2011 and Golf Wang clothing in 2011. He was right there. Drake obviously eclipsed him commercial success-wise from there, but this shyt has come full circle now, especially from an artistry standpoint. Also, he’s only 33, so he’s in his prime now.

Drake had buzz with SFG, and was already working with the industry before that.

Room for Improvement came out in 06 and he was working with Trey Songz by then.

The Odd Future tape didn't generate buzz like that.

I'm familiar with that timeline because Tyler was still on the HB forums pushing that OF tape and his music when Drake was already a thing.

Drake definitely hit the scene and was in the mix first.

Every Tyler thread people who do not listen to this man come in here and expose themselves, they do don't this with any other modern artist

"How is he popular just making troll raps ?" -

something he hasn't done in ages

"I thought he was gay" - ignoring years of him talking about fukking on other nikkas girls and keep his private

The wild part is this really makes sense to you.

Ngga nobody put a gun to his head and made him rap as a gay troll :gucci:

He and you younger fans are lucky he’s not a street rapper and this generation is soft; bc no other rapper would be able to get away with this type of switch up.

Again, he’s doing an impersonaton. It’s corny the same way it’d be corny if Post Malone hopped on Peekaboo sounding like AZ Chike :martin:
