Jordan Clemons I mean is it that hard to believe? Listen to that tracks production. Artists like Yea and Nicki don't really try to experiment that far out of their comfort zone. That's why features like Rocky and Q make sense seeing as their fellow artists who like to experiment with what traditional hiphop is. I'm sure someone like Yea loves what Tyler is doing but can't see himself really blending well with what Tylers doing.

[@way4889]

It’s not that at all. With Ye, Ye has always known the potential and power that Tyler has. Ye made a song with him in Cherry Bomb.

What do you mean ? A lot of Artists don’t even write their music and it’s been that way for decades or they don’t have the skill to do it which is fine, so they get help. However, as a rapper you definitely need to write your own wap when you claim to be the beat rapper/have the beat bars. A artist like Tyler is so rare. He actually puts so much detail and thought into his projects. AND HE PRODUCES HIS OWN MUSIC AND HE DONT EVEN SAMPLE HARDLY!!! None of his albums sound the same. NONE!!! A lot of rappers /other artists make the same albums back to back with then same lyrical content. It’s crazy how it sells and does well too. I’m glad Tyler is getting so much love and deserves so much more tho.

[@tink6225]

They're basically just letting you know they don't think they can do whatever ideas you have justice. It usually isn't personal. I mean Tyler being Tyler he can be seen as an outsider. But you could also say he's massively successful in his own lane. It's entirely possible it was just too far out of their element, at which point declining is more out of respect than not wanting to fw you. You can still be cool and all, it's just understood that they can't really help you with that project. Happens all of the time. Probably 2 of those for every 1 good collab that makes it out.

I will forever respect Tyler because he actually speaks out about how black people always pressure each other to stay in this judgmental mindset of what's cool and what's not He encourages black people to be them and love who they are no matter if they're outcasts He is the living example I always felt insecure to do shit like listen to rock music or wear Converses instead of Jordans Just to see an example like him lets me know that the things I do is not abnormal it's me being me forever love and respect Tyler thank you

[@_Cato_]

roszina jones I think that's great, coming from a pasty white dude. Be whoever the fuck you want. Don't feel pressured to be anything. We're all humans. I'm so glad that Tyler is smashing cultural forces.

[@christiandriver1411]

I feel you on this. I always got called oreo or white washed cause i was that one black kid listening to punk rock and reading instead of rap or wearing button up shirts and converse instead of b-ball jerseys and Jordan's. I could go on and on but my point still stands. I was original and it's so comforting hearing and watching a famous artist say it and live it and how other people in general just relate to it. Who's weird now tho? Lmao

[@AlpaGeno]

roszina jones amen!!

[@glo.hardie]

roszina jones I totally agree

[@savanaangel9718]

omg I relate so much I'm 13 and black I have mostly white friends because other black people in my school think I act like them because I dress in all black and listen to alternative pop punk or indie bands instead of mainstream auto tuned rap bullshit like everyone else.

[@kaelenm.8069]

Just the fact that Jerrod is so fucking into it and is so fucking present in this interview makes it all worth while like the fact that yeah their talking about flower boy but when they go off on a tangent about chords it still holds the same amount of substance is just so heart warming

[@LetsSmokePodcast]

He’s one of the funniest young comedians ya doof

[@DebateThis]

yo this guy asks the dopest shit. He was really focused on the creation of his music with his questions, but he did it in a way that he got real answers from the artist. I feel like even some of the top interviewers and radio hosts who tend to do it.. cannot achieve this.

[@Supermetro_]

also those interviewers and radio hosts aren't musicians themselves, so they can't ask those kind of questions as easily

[@kamarmcneil7390]

Yea I wish more interviewers would actually be interested in the music of the artists they’re interview. Or at least try to if u didn’t get an artist u like.

[@Treefingers27]

Jerrod Carmichael is one of the best, up and coming comics. Check out his HBO stand-up special called "8", he's really funny. The interview is amazing because you can tell there is mutual respect between the two of them...

[@TheLomax21]

i remember an old interview of tyler i saw when i was first getting into it and he was being so mean to the interviewer for asking simple questions that anyone can find on wikipedia and at the time i didnt understand what the big deal was. Seeing this interview brings new expectations for interviewers in my mind. Its so tight

[@lukeberrie3942]

Tyler truly is a creator. Everything on this record has a purpose. There is a story behind every loop and sample. Tracks and verses are where they are at for a specific reason. I've said this before but Tyler is one of the only rappers in the game who is a visionary artist. The record as a whole sounds like the album art, being a portrait of Tyler himself. After dissecting this album, you feel like you know Tyler in person, and I never get that from any other Hip-Hop album. Tyler goes down as a GOAT just for that reason in my opinion. He's incredible.

I think it's kinda sad how Tyler wanted all of these artists to be on this album and no one really wanted to be on with him, however, I think it's a blessing for him because it gave him a way of expressing his feelings himself. The album might have collapsed if he had all of those artists instead of him actually conveying those emotions. Still loving it

[@pojomon1234]

the only two i wouldve really enjoyed are q and carti. carti's input wouldve been a minimal yet cool addition and q couldve really rapped over who dat boy.

The cinematography is fucking great. It makes you feel like an outsider looking at them, noticing every single new detail of these people, but you know these people so its so familiar but also a feel of admiration, idk I just love it.

[@itzelloveyou]

Also the backdrop makes it feel like they have an eternity to talk about anything in the coziness middle of nowhere. The split camera work limits what you see icing emphasis to what they're speaking but also let's you see and feel their reactions, fuck I love it.

[@xhocheinsdurchmol]

Man, it's always awesome just to hear someone talk about their craft with such energy and passion. It's equally as awesome to hear the interviewer be just intrigued by it because he understands from an empathetic point of view.
