Tyler, the Creator has been busy.
The Los Angeles rapper early Monday launched “Don’t Tap the Glass,” his second LP to drop in lower than 9 months.
The brand new 10-track challenge intently follows “Chromakopia,” which got here out in October, simply earlier than Tyler’s annual Camp Flog Gnaw pageant at Dodger Stadium, the place he carried out songs from the album together with “Noid” and “Sticky” and welcomed cameos by Sexyy Crimson, Doechii and ScHoolboy Q. In February, Tyler set out on a world tour behind “Chromakopia” that touched down for a six-night keep at Crypto.com Enviornment and stopped final week in New York for reveals at Madison Sq. Backyard and the Barclays Heart.
Based on album credit on Apple Music, “Don’t Tap the Glass” — which options no formally billed visitor appearances — was produced by Tyler himself; the album has a cool, club-geared sound stuffed with old-school stylistic touches.
In a put up on X, Tyler mentioned the LP grew out of a dialog he had with associates about why they don’t dance in public. His associates, he mentioned, blamed “the fear of being filmed.” He added: “I thought damn, a natural form of expression and a certain connection they have with music is now a ghost. It made me wonder how much of our human spirit got killed because of the fear of being a meme.”
“This album was not made for sitting still,” Tyler wrote. “Dancing driving running any type of movement is recommended to maybe understand the spirit of it.”
