‘Do what makes you happy. Because in the end, who’s there, ‘YOU’.’ -Tyler the Creator. Rapper Tyler, the Creator is best known for his work with the Los Angeles-based alternative hip-hop collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All–more commonly called simply Odd Future–which includes creative artists ranging from rappers to singers to producers to illustrators. After rising to notice through online music releases and popular video clips that he helmed for the collective, Tyler, the Creator self-released his debut album, Bastard, in 2010. The following year he released follow-up effort Goblin on record label XL, quickly garnering global critical attention for his sharply confrontational lyric. Tyler is looking at retiring from the rap industry three years from now and is and I planning on investing in an industry that he hasn’t yet released to the public to ensure that he is financially stable. Tyler Okonma was born on March 6, 1991. December 25, 2009, his first album ‘Bastard’ released. May 9, 2010, signed to XL Records.
January 1, 2011, his second album ‘Goblin’ released. July 10, 2012, he released the ‘Odd Future Vol. Tap’April 2, 2013, he released his third album ‘Wolf’ April 13, 2015, he released his fourth album ‘Cherry Bomb.’ A hero must be a role model for other people, someone that people want to be. Someone that looks past all the negativity in their life and turn that into a positive. A person that uses their creativity to make something amazing for the world to see. Someone that understands their fans and have a connection with them. A person that makes a difference in people’s lives. Tyler the Creator is inspirational to his fans because he understands what people have been through and he is a leader and role model in society to the young generation of kids today. Tyler’s imagination and creativity are wild beyond recognition with everything he does.
In high school, Tyler was the kid always thinking outside the box when everyone else was staying in their comfort zones and being like everyone else and they would think he was weird for that, but thinking outside the box got him to where he is today.’There is something vicious and delicious about the texture of Tyler’s rapping, a breathless stream of craggy, sharp words that careen from the personal to the sci-fi, held together only rarely by some impossible internal logic.'(PBS).I think Tyler is a creative person because his music tells a story, in every song, there is something hidden. and he says the things that people are afraid to say out loud. His music was meant for teenagers, not older people and I think that’s cool because that says a lot about him. He connects to the young generation because he is young and he understands what it’s like to be a kid. But people take the music he makes way too serious and literal. So, we have to ask the real stuff… ‘Truthfully, I’m just having fun. I’m young, and when you’re young you just find things that interest you. Like skateboarding, I like that stuff. I read books on serial killers and rape and stuff so my mind is just filled with that at the moment. I’m not a serial killer. I just rap about that stuff because it interests me at the moment. I’m just having fun. So if you take it seriously, y

ou’re either old or didn’t have good childhoods and take life too seriously. If you have time to sit there and write articles about me and you’re not doing anything… Some people just really sit there and take stuff too seriously. You can’t please everyone.’ (An interview with Julianne Escobedo and Tyler the Creator). I could be listening to music people don’t like or hanging out with people other people don’t like or wearing clothes that people think is offensive or simply don’t like, for example, I have this Marrone Thrasher Magazine pentagram windbreaker that I wear and people are like, ‘oh, you’re a satanist’ or ‘you’re one of ‘those’ people’ like no, it’s a skater reference, people look too deep into things and take them way too serious but I’m not going to stop what I like doing to please others. That’s why the majority of people today are a follower. Because they don’t want to stand out and be themselves instead they do what others like and want them to do to please them. Tyler’s creativity shaped what he has today if he had stayed in the crowd just like everyone else he wouldn’t have made it to where he is today.
