after three full listens through... this is Tyler evolving his NERD love/admiration/reverence/obsession into a full sound that is Tyler’s, and Tyler’s alone. I can hear all his influences during different pockets, I can even hear some of his earlier work like VCR; but unlike a lot of his earlier work, admiration doesn’t bleed into imitation.

Sonically, this album is on some other other other shyt. I know some are complaining about the lack of raps... but I honestly can’t remember a single moment where I cared (and that’s not a shot; to each his own!). I just wanted to hear more.

Tyler knocked this shyt out of the park, bat-flipped, then hit the Prince Fielder celebration at home plate...

He better get a Grammy nod for this.


its crazy because goblin...he mastered the nerd sound...back then...and he has lapped them...

she and analog...inspired what we have today...i kind of figured he would have more singin....due to the reactions from cherry bombs fukking/perfect...blow my loadn...then the stuff on flower boy..911 garden shed see u again..

I'm a Tyler fan but I haven't and don't see myself going out of my way to check for this. Maybe on a random but idk maybe I grew out of dude music:manny:

I’m a Tyler/Odd future fan from way back but I can’t even give him the benefit of doubt on this.:snoop:

It’s kinda trash :hubie:

He’s no Andre 3000/Pharrell/Kanye:manny:

He can’t get away with a experimental singing album

He can’t sing AT ALL. He’s carried by all his background singers on the good songs

Some of the production is good but even then it’s sloppy and all over the place

I’d rather go listen to Jaden Smith who’s making nice experimental music while still rapping and staying hip hop

Exactly what genre is IGOR :ohhh:

Excellent production

Should’ve let people who can actually harmonize sing and shyt

If Tyler decided to play the background role and focus on the instrumentation on some Jamie XX /Prime Sbtrkt shyt that album would be absolutely nuts.

I like this though,he should stay in this lane.Potential is crazy

Exactly what I’m thinking

Tyler needs to step back. He can’t do it all

Only Pharrell, Kanye and Andre 3000 could get away with that weird singing

Tyler tried to make his NERD, Love Below, 808s but it’s just a forced mash up off all his influences without much direction or soul

Not saying it doesn’t have potential and some good moments but I think him doing everything (mainly singing) and being THE guy creatively makes the album suffer

He should do a collab album or something with nerd, frank ocean or the internet if he wants to be non hip hop and experimental

Sad bum stealing Nicki Minaj and school boy q cadence's.


Tyler is a knockoff artist

American idol reject singing

Talent show vocals

Trash

Yea I fukk with Tyler but this is a fact. Man I was listening to that new Matt Martians album 'The Last Party" I think it's called. Bro I thought I was listening to some unreleased NERD shyt b
nikkas sleeping on my boy Matt. The Last Party felt like some outer space lounge shyt. Amazing sequel to The Drum Chord Theory. :whew:

I was hoping N*E*R*D got back on that Seeing Sounds shyt. :mjcry:
