Goblin is clearly positioned as a sequel to Bastard, from the repeated framing device of the school counselor/therapist that’s used throughout to album opener ‘Goblin’ which echoes Bastard’s opening track as a sort of “state-of-Tyler” rant over a skeletal backing track. If it isn’t a better introduction to Tyler than Bastard, it’s the album that will bring Tyler’s sensibility to a much wider audience. His new album, Goblin continues in the same vein of unhinged, often funny and deeply personal material that is Odd Future’s hallmark but painted a shade darker. Those fantasies, despite their often goofy energy, have made Tyler seem dangerous and sexy whilst also making him a lightning rod for criticism. Instead of rapping about his (non-existent) wealth, Tyler raps about the pains of being an awkward, father-less teenager and his violent, often misogynistic fantasies. Tyler’s work stands as a repudiation to the rich man, stuffed shirt raps of Jay-Z and Rick Ross that have dominated popular hip-hop for years. The combination of those two elements is electric. Tyler and Odd Future exist in a unique cultural place, one that feels particular to Los Angeles, as black skater kids obsessed equally with hip-hop and punk rock shock tactics. It was a disturbing, amateurish and fully-realized vision of teenage nihilism in the unusual package of a rap album. OVERALL 8 OUT OF 10 GREAT PRODUCTION, GREAT SONG CONCEPTS, GREAT STORY BUT ALL THE FILLER SONGS MAKES “WOLF” WAY LONGER THEN IT HAS TO BE AND BRINGS DOWN THE VALUE OF WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN EASILY IMO “ALBUM OF THE YEAR”.In late December of 2009, Tyler the Creator released his self-produced album, Bastard, on the tumblr of his rap collective, Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All.
TYLER ONLY APPEARS ON THE BRIDGE OF THIS SONG BUT AFTER LISTENING THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE HE COULD DO HERE BUT BACKGROUND VOCALS BECAUSE ERYKAH BADU KILLS THIS SHIT WITH EASE.

TYLER’S SMOOTH PRODUCTION ON FRANK’S SINGING IS ALSO A WIN BUT HERE THEY CREATE THE ONLY SONG ON WOLF THAT I THINK COULD CRACK OPEN A HIGH BILLBOARD SPOT AS THEY COMPARE A FEMALE TO A FLY ASS BIMMER. THE ONLY BAD THING ABOUT THIS SONG IS EARL VERSE IS HELLA SHORT THE SONG IS ABOUT HOW HARD NIGGAZ WORK FOR RECOGNITION THAT THEY RARELY GET OR RECEIVE NEGATIVITY FOR. IMO THIS IS THE BEST VERSE I EVER HEARD FROM DOMO YET AND THE HOOK HE LAYS HERE IS INSANELY CATCHY. “48” FEATURING FRANK OCEAN IS A SONG ABOUT THE CAUSE AND EFFECT OF DRUG DEALING WHICH ALSO HAS RECORDINGS OF NAS TALKING ABOUT DRUGS ON THE SONG. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS ITS EXTREMELY LONG AND MOST OF THE BEST SONGS ARE EXTREMELY SHORT. THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH WOLF IS ITS FILLER SONGS LIKE “CAMPFIRE” MAKES SENSE FOR THE STORY BUT CAN’T STAND CLOSE THE LP’S HIGHLIGHT SONGS. “PIGS” IS THE STORY OF A BULLIED TEEN GOING RAMPAGE UNTIL THE COPS ACTUALLY SHOW UP AND HE WANTS SOMEONE TO SAVE HIM FROM TROUBLE. “COLOSSUS” IS A STAN LIKE SONGS WHICH FEATURES TYLER TALKING TO AN OBSESSED FAN WITH THE CONVERSATION GOING FROM NORMAL TO FUCKING CRAZY AS THE SONG FINISHES. THE SONGS THAT WILL BE THE MOST REMEMBERED FROM THIS LP WILL BE “COLOSSUS” AND “PIGS”. IF YOU ARE A FAN OF ODD FUTURE THEN YOU KNOW TYLER LOVE FOR HARMONIES ON HIS SONGS AND HERE HE PROVES HE MAY BE ON THE SAME LEVEL OF DRAKE OR KANYE WHEN IT COMES TO MASHING RAPPING AND SINGING PERFECTLY WITH MULTIPLE SONGS FEATURING GRAMMY WINNER FRANK OCEAN, ERYKAH BADU, AND SYD THE KID. THE PRODUCTION IS A LIGHT YEARS AWAY FROM ANYTHING ELSE COMING OUT RIGHT RANGING FROM SOUNDING LIKE EARLY 2000’S NEPTUNES TO FUTURISTIC SPACE OUT TRAP MUSIC ON “TRASH WANG”. THE OVERALL STORY OF THE LP (WHICH IS ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE LP) REVOLVES AROUND TYLER GOING TO THE FICTIONAL CAMP “FLOG GNAW” AND MEETING SOON TO BE ENEMY SAMUEL AND HIS SO CALLED GIRL FRIEND.
#Drake tyler the creator wolf album full
ON WOLF YOU FINALLY SEE TYLER LEAVE HIS USUAL SHOCK VALUE BASED LYRICS FOR MEANINGFUL SELF REFLECTIVE BARS THAT MAY NOT BE FULL OF HUGE DICTIONARY SEARCH WORDS BUT PACK THE SAME IF NOT MORE PUNCH AS THOSE WORDS WOULD HAVE. WOLF IS TYLER THE CREATOR’S THIRD LP AND SECOND OFFICIAL RELEASE AFTER GOBLIN AND IS THE GREATEST ALBUM OUT OF THE THREE.
