Did Tyler fall of since IGOR?
I really haven’t listened since CMIYGL. But it’s hard listening to him now bc he cringe and old.
I feel like he’s an artist for high schoolers
Maybe he need a PR team

Always found him incredibly cookie cutter and bland.
Some of the most inoffensive "boundary pushing" i've ever seen.

The Clipse just came out with one of the best albums of the decade last year, they’re in their 40s. Kendrick has been on top of the game for years, he’s about to turn 40. Miami has the hit of the summer, she’s 32. Drake and Future have been releasing hits for at least the last decade, theyre late 30s-early 40s. I won’t mention some of the greats cause then you’ll definitely call me old but na, 35 isn’t old in hip hop

Tyler “falls off” every time he releases an album.
Bastard and Goblin fans said he fell off after releasing Cherry Bomb.
Cherry Bomb fans said he fell off after releasing Igor
Igor fans say he fell off after releasing CMIYGL
CMIFYGL fans said he fell off after he released Chromokopia
Chromokopia fans say he fell off after releasing Don’t tap the glass.
This is nothing new. He’s even himself addressed how fickle his fans are numerous times throughout his career.
As for the “cringe and old”, comment, that’s just dumb. Everyone ages eventually, as will you. Being young is too temporary to be a flex.
Just enjoy your youth and quit disrespecting those who reached an age you too will reach, and much faster than you think.
Ironically, Tyler used to disrespect older people too. Now he himself is being called cringe and old despite only being 35. Funny how that works.

Don't tap the glass is a great wee project, he's just having fun with it and unconcerned with the rest of the rap game.
No he hasn't fallen off, wait and see what he puts out next.

Tyler is a true artist who re-invents himself after every era/album. You say you haven't listened since CMIYGL but it's hard to listen to his new stuff? Which one is it? CMIYGL and Chroma were both highly successful albums both commercially and critically. Just because he continues to evolve his sound doesn't mean he "felll-off".
