Tyler, The Creator Writes Lengthy Post In Response To Fan’s Criticism Of “Cherry Bomb” Album

READ THE ODD FUTURE MEMBER’S STATEMENT TO HIS FAN

(AllHipHop News) One Reddit user posted a message on the site titled “I’m done with Tyler.” The person who goes by the name oneeyedplatypus explained the love for Tyler, The Creator’s music has waned because the Odd Future member’s latest album Cherry Bomb was a disappointment.

“Yes, I know he’s happy now and that’s great,” expressed the user. “But he’s gotta realize many of the old fans aren’t big on this new stuff.”

dont mention those things, so idk i find it weird dude made it seem like thats all i talk about on there

he said he releated to me when i was depressed and living with my grandmother.

dude, that was in 2011. its 2015, if he really thinks that 4 years later i would still be living on my dead grandmothers floor, and still be sad with all these amazing things happening around me, then he is stuck in 2011. and i dont mean that in a bad way, when you have a favorite artist, you tend to grasp onto an era, trust me i do that with artist that i love but i also know they grow and see new things and change and mature and all of that. im sorry that im not in the same place to talk about those things that were happening in 2011. i dont know what to tell you, my life is in a different spot right now and like on every album, i talk about whats going on in my life AT THAT MOMENT. s###, that would be sooo sad if i was making the same album over and over again. and when i talk about depressed stuff, i know n##### who think its cool as f### to be sad and negative. i remember being in a somewhat dark spot and now that im not there i understand that its not healthy and it sucks, that s### is NOT TIGHT and it sometimes rubs off on others, you dont have as much fun and blah blah but take that how you want dude

he said that “hes not suprised that OF dont hang around ME anymore”. ok, im not gonna go into that. the thing that does suck is that people that dont know what goes on in our personal lives always seems to think they know whats really going on. trust me, you dont know. and to read that comment made me kinda bummed, cause the tone made it seem like im sus or the bad guy, ha.

i never said anything about kendrick and thebe, in that interview i do recall said its either you talking about trapping and selling drugs, or doing the opposite talking about black power and all that. dont twist my f###### words dude.

and being hapy doesnt mean you have to say it all the time? why not? why cant i share my joy with the world? ohhh, it was cool when i was raping girls and telling you how sad i was on records, but when s### changes and im feeling great and i f### with myself you cant deal with it? cause you cant relate? is that why? or maybe its my ego talking. idk know what it is, but after a while you realize you dont want to be around people who isnt positive, who isnt focused who dont want more. why would you want to be around someone is is a downer? and i dont even mean depressed, i mean n##### who is always just f###### everyones mood up? everytime they talk its something negative? am i wrong cause i dont want that in my life? its crazy, all im doing is spreading good vibes and tryna give some confidence to people and at least telling them they can accoplish something. sometimes giving some people some hope can really push people to be great. i know i had a couple teachers and my role models always reminded me that i can really do something if i put my mind to it, and everything i EVER put my mind to I HAVE ACCOMPLISHED!, so excuse me if its in my nature to project that kind of attitude, THATS ALL I KNOW. sorry im not sad, sorry i didnt have a story line to cover up my flaws of sound b, sorry the last album was 100 percent me and not from the perspective of a bunch of made up people, sorry that i can gives all my boys jobs and my mother and sister have a roof over their head, sorry i have big plans to do stuff outside of rap like maybe open a movie theater or a park, sorry that im getting started on those things now, sorry that im into stones now ( its a video from 2011 sxsw where i had the icy GOLF pendant, but yall prolly dont remember that, didnt i wear chains in yonkers?) sorry that i like cars and like to talk about it, soooo sorry that ive turned into the guy i hated ( idk if thats true but that what yall think , i have not worn leather pants or been to the club ha) sorry for being me, i apologize in advance cause IM GONNA CONTINUE TO DO THAT FOREVER

PS: i am making overalls for F/W GOLF
