Producer:

Can you do it once more leaning back, though, for that mic. Thank you. Thank you. I just don’t want you to be in front of it. Yeah, I got you. 

Tyler, the Creator:

No, no, lift that **** we gettin’ the mic. Hey guys, it’s me, Tyler, and you’re here with Billboard Magazine, and I can’t wait ’til you see all the cool things that we have coming for you guys, guys, including exclusives and exclusives. F*ck yeah. I’m so fortunate like 13 years in, and my latest sh*t is my biggest? Bro that’s rare. There’s n***a’s is out here that they first album is the only one that they get to perform when they go places like they have to use that as a marketing thing, because that’s the one people connected to the most. And kind of sometimes it might feel like the other sh*t’s disregarded. So I’m like, bro, this album ate 13 years later, and this, doing this, that don’t happen much, so I’m over here sitting like, oh, I don’t know anything. I thought I had a grasp on this sh*t. I thought I knew song structure. And like, oh, all the kids are on TikTok. No one cares about lyrics anymore. I’m a boomer, and I’m like no, this sh*t is turnt. I don’t know sh*t, n***a I’m so confused in like the most positive way, and I really love it. Like, first week No. 1 was like all right, cool, sick. Kind of figured it’s been a while. 

Keep watching for more!
