Star power drives sales. Wouldn't expect any less from him, even though I don't particularly like this last project

Hell no. All that trolling shyt he came in the game with is what turned me completely off to him and his music.

He’s got like 3 songs I fukk with but i’ve never listened to a full Tyler album and never will.
He's changed (His music) B@stard and Goblin were characters he was doing....There were plans of him doing a movie to explain everything but it never happened (see trailer below)

Try to give Cherry Bomb and Call Me If You Get Lost a try. Chromakopia is his most mature body of work.

His album with DJ Drama was pretty good. This one eh I'll have to listen again.

Damn, talk about receipts.

I will say that will.i.am came up in a different era tho, and hes right in most cases. Other than kanye and pharrell, no one in hip hop has been able to do what tyler has, odds were def stacked against tyler
I made a post about Will I am a while ago. The BEP tried to do that "real" hip hop music and people ignored them. I bought their first 2 albums as they were on some boom bap shyt even getting Primo to produce a single on the 2nd album. Absolutely no one paid them any attention. FF to years later, they add Fergie, do world tours, sell millions, and now the people that ignored them paid attention and now want them to do "real hip hop". Fans are fake. I didn't like the music they did with Fergie at all, but it's what they did to survive. Fast Forward years after their run with Fergie, they returned to their roots with those hip hop albums and the people ignored them again.

Man I remember they had a music video that was a spoof of an infomercial literally whitewashing hip-hop to appeal to White people.

It's crazy to see that's the route they ended up taking :francis:
