On Monday, Tyler, the Creator dropped a 40-second teaser trailer on his social media platforms, which most assumed meant new music (or something new) was on the way. Now, it has arrived in the form of a new song. Titled “LUMBERJACK,” the song is Tyler’s first proper release since 2019’s Igor. Check out the song and its teaser trailer below. [embedded content] [embedded content] As you can see in the teaser, the phrase “Call Me If You Get Lost” appears as it did in the original “Side Street” clip. As of now, what that means remains to be seen. But it seems like new music is on the way. Tyler will be performing at Lollapalooza next month and Outside Lands in October.

Tyler, the Creator has kept a somewhat low profile since taking home a Grammy for Igor back in early 2020 (AKA the before times). But it seems like, if what he just shared is a sign of things to come, Tyler has something releasing soon. The Odd Future boss just shared a short, 43-second teaser on his social platforms. On the aptly titled “Side Street,” Tyler is making out with a girl in front of a pink car while holding a dog’s leash… on a side street. Once Tyler hops in said car and goes his own way, fellow Odd Future member Taco pops up and talks with the girl who Tyler was making out with and the words “Call Me If You Get Lost” appear on the screen. Watch it below. [embedded content] Based on his top-level appearances at Lollapalooza next month and Outside Lands in October, you’d assume...

“Everything I do is organic,” Brent Faiyaz says when asked about his songwriting process. “I don’t even really calculate this shit like that,” he continues. “I’m actually surprised that I do put out music in a timely fashion.” The 25-year-old R&B vocalist has, in fact, put out plenty of music since his 2013 EP Black Child. The Maryland-based artist has since released five EPs, one of which was with his side project Sonder, and a studio album, 2017’s Sonder Son. In the meantime, he has a single, “Gravity,” with Tyler, the Creator, and an upcoming song titled “Show You Off,” slated for International Women’s Day in March. Even aside from his music, he’s spent time modeling for Calvin Klein as part of a collaboration with Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free’s new company, pgLang. “It’s cool...

As part of our 35th-anniversary, we’re naming the most influential artists of the past 35 years. Today, we’re at #29. From Los Angeles, California, here is Tyler, the Creator. CREDIT: Monty Brinton/CBS via Getty Images Introducing himself as a shock rapper with exceptional production skills on his 2009 mixtape, Bastard, a young Tyler, the Creator took over the underground by helping build up the careers of Odd Future group mates — including Frank Ocean, Earl Sweatshirt and the Internet — as the collective’s mainstay. But once Tyler pushed into the groovy production of later records Cherry Bomb and Flower Boy, the rapper-producer showed he didn’t need to say crazy shit to sell records. He capitalized on melodies instead of fake threats to Bruno Mars’ life, putting it all on ...

Fashionable music icons Iggy Pop, A$AP Rocky and Tyler, The Creator are the stars of a new Gucci ad campaign shot by Kids and Spring Breakers director Harmony Korine. The spots were shot in pre-pandemic February and are airing now. The artists, with their distinctive looks, dance around in a West Coast home in their Gucci finery.
