Tyler, The Creator

I believe he should be recognized much more. Like Kanye and his art form how he was bashed for the first few years he was rapping, I believe he is gonna be in that spot of fame if he isn't already. But, at the same time some of his fans suck dick and did not appreciate Cherry Bomb for it's progressiveness. All in all, gotta respect his way of thinking.

Good post.

Both Tyler and Earl. It's very hard to pinpoint what's so great about both of them. Like I'm not sure WHY they're the best rappers of this generation but I know that they are. They're both so mesmerizing. They're both so conflicting not with each other but with themselves. I know it's like a cliche to put contrasting adjectives together and say somehow these artists do both at the same time. But with both of them it's so true. Brutally disingenuous and sincere- mild mannered and obscene. There's an ocean of depth but it's not necessarily in the words. It's in the presentation almost like performance art. Lenny Bruce kind of comes to mind. I understand the revolutionary nature of NWA but I still rank Odd Future and especially Tyler and Earl's solo stuff higher. Over time, when topical relevance wanes and the music will have to stand on artistic merit alone what Tyler and Earl have done is going eclipse their peers and predecessors the same way Miles and Coltrane have done.
