The beat evaporated and Tyler gave us some cool bars. The beat just built up and exploded into absolute fairy dust. Tyler and Frank have an odd chemistry-pun intended-but their collaborations are stellar. Frank just arrived sounding like he’s been getting vocal training by little mermaids. It’s rather beautiful, like a Disney princess waking up on the first day of summer vacation. Really have to look into who is killing this hook. "Foreword" has the disturbing force of a ladybug. The energy is far from high but that's the charm, a change of scenery. Usually, he wants to leave a mark with something rambunctious and loud. I don’t think I’ve heard Tyler sound this calm on an album opening, ever. “ How many chains can I wear 'til I’m considered a slave, how many slaves 'til Nate Turner arrives?” I like this bar, a bit weird but I like it. Verse two continues this wondering mindset. These chords and strings feel like the end of summer, this would depress Phineas and Ferb. " Nothing last forever, nothing sticks." Whoever's singing the hook killed it. Tyler is painting pictures, for the most part, asking himself a lot of internal questions. Rather chill, far from an explosive opening. Interesting, introspective verse thus far. The way the beat is waving back and forth is like a hypnotist swinging a quarter before my eyes to put me under a spell. Here’s hoping that Flower Boy sheds the pretentious, avant-garde mindset and that Tyler allows the music a chance to be received by all ears.īitch and fuck are the first words heard, very Tyler. Cherry Bomb has these moments, but it's mostly ruined by the unbearable sound quality. No psychiatrist sessions or summer camp adventures, but snapshots of Tyler Okonma's life.

Over the years, what I’ve wanted the most from a Tyler, The Creator project is a step into reality. Tyler’s albums tend to capture his imagination, showcase his advances as a producer and pay homage to Pharrell and N*E*R*D as a reminder of their influence on his artistry. It's a comeback project that, hopefully, can right the wrongs of Cherry Bomb. A good album felt self-sabotaged, a single creative desire ruined the experience and the album sunk into Davy Jones’ Locker-a place where no one could hear it explode.įlower Boy isn't just a new album, though. 2015's Cherry Bomb, Tyler's previous full-length, didn’t amass widespread admiration, the result of questionable audio engineering that gave the album amplified bass too overwhelming to be enjoyable.
