Tyler The Creator: How To Become A True Artist

[@Apuat]

What Tyler knows (which he kind of said) that a lot of other folks don’t is that everything is. He just pulls from a constant stream of ideas he trained his self to tap into and grabs them off the shelf like going to the market. Some he uses immediately, others in the fridge for a bit and some go in the freezer to hit folks up with in 5 to 10 years but he sure as fuck knows where they are. He may season or cook them up with other ideas for a great meal when he’s ready but he keeps his cart full & stays in the sto.

[@testtesting4109]

Are there any interviews where Tyler talked more about this concept?

[@Backyardmia]

Said a whole lot of nothing lol

[@fauxdauteur]

I love how Tyler creates mini universes for each of his albums. He treats each of them like a movie connected to a larger plot and it's so fascinating to see. He's one of the greatest artists of our time and he's nowhere close to 40 yet.

[@anthonypratico8698]

You mean like how all albums used to be made? 😂

[@wwechampion]

@@anthonypratico8698 Well, I wish albums today were made like they use to be then lol

Tyler is the most well-spoken artist I have ever understood on a musical perspective. His ability to bring out the true mindset of an artist and what kind of mindset it takes to achieve anything you want in life is amazing. You don't hear a lot of artists go into depth like this. Put yourself towards a dream and any lifestyle no doubt it will always come to you. Too many people aren't open minded enough to think like this because we are raised into thinking it's hard or too inconvenient to try and become something other than just a basic 9 to 5 worker. If you wanna be a 9 to 5 worker there's obviously nothing wrong with that but I'm saying its totally not impossible to have an open mind into being ANYTHING you want and being driven enough and have enough energy to make it happen. Learn to love yourself so you can bring out the best in you and always be yourself. A lot of people try to be like others, and it takes away how special you could actually become. Tyler is one of those guys that just get it, who came from nothing and did what it takes to simply do whatever the fuck he wants. He is a prime example of the possibility's life can truly treat you with the right mindset and energy. Like he says every single thing is figure out-able. Creativity is one thing but manifesting bigger things and having zero doubts can only treat you to good things.

You should watch Pharrell interviews. He's one of Tyler's mentors and major influences for where his music is since Flowerboy

[@sparechaingee]

@ ok I’ll check it out

[@avrilmaemartin]

He’s so well spoken

[@musicgaloreco]

agreed. once in a lifetime talent.

[@quotez101]

Please don’t say this to people of colour in real life, it’s offensive.

[@matthewheatley1958]

He really is. He articulates his process and reasoning behind everything he does better than most artist. Always coming off with so much gems, One of my favourite and most profound quotes of his being “yo girlfriend look like my mom”

[@albertoballocca]

I guess he simply knows what he want to do

[@mikegibsion]

[@isac8475]

[@mmayer1558]

Although this might be controversial, I think being a true artist is about expressing the artistic idea to the best of your ability at the expense of being recognized for it or sharing it. Why is art constantly put out there to be judged, to be altered? We understand there are concepts of art that are highly personal (like an artist having a muse) so why doesn't art just stay personal and secret? What is this insistence on getting it out for the world to see?

[@TwylasCouch]

8:20 is so real. So many opinions and no one can articulate why they even think that way

[@WarMonkeyPlays]

Beat me to the punch. That whole part needs to get clipped and spread.

[@ethanf9756]

[@rakeemkoroma2398]

you need to stay in that flow state.

[@Tyler12905]

[@Tyler12905]
