Read Full BioTyler Gregory Okonma (born March 6, 1991) also known as Tyler, The Creator, is a Grammy award-winning American rapper, singer, record producer, director, fashion designer, and the head of his independent record label, Odd Future Records. He was the leader of the now-defunct Los Angeles, California, USA hip-hop collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All (OFWGKTA). Since his first recordings had debuted on The Odd Future Tape in 2007, he had rapped on, and produced for, nearly every OFWGKTA release.
Tyler, The Creator is Okonma's most commonly used alias, and the one that both of his first two albums are credited to, but he has used several others as well, including Wolf Haley, Ace (or Ace Creator), and Young N***a, the latter of which was part of a prank on OFWGKTA's official site. Many other characters or alter egos and names are featured in his music, such as Tron Cat, a therapist called Dr. TC, and most recently, Tyler Baudelaire, the character from the 2021 album CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST.
In 2009, Tyler self-released his debut mixtape B*stard as a free download off of the official OFWGKTA website. Two music videos were released for tracks off of B*stard, "VCR" and "French!," both of which were directed by Tyler (credited as Wolf Haley). The album is focused on dialogues between Tyler and Dr. TC, and it received generally positive reviews from critics and blogs alike.
After signing to XL Recordings in February 2011, he released "Yonkers," the lead single off his sophomoric album Goblin, which was released on May 10, 2011. The music video for "Yonkers" (directed by Tyler credited as Wolf Haley) won Tyler The 2011 MTV Video Music Award for "Best New Artist," as well as a nomination for Video of the Year (which lost to Katy Perry's "Firework").
Goblin, an album described as "dark," "monolithic," and "a natural sequel to B*stard," continues the sessions with Tyler's fictional therapist, with Tyler venting to Dr. TC about fame, message boards, critics, hype, expectations, media scrutiny, and the idea of being a role model. All of the production was handled by Tyler, save for "Transylvania," which was produced by fellow OFWGKTA member Left Brain.
Tyler's third studio album, known as Wolf, was released in 2013. Tyler alluded to several possible track names on his Formspring account, and he stated that the album would focus less on rapping and more on production. In an interview with DJ Semtex, he confirmed that he would handle all the production on the album, except for one song produced by Left Brain, the same approach that was used for Goblin. On February 14, 2013, OFWGKTA uploaded a video to their YouTube account, which included L-Boy skydiving and stating that on April 2, 2013. Tyler revealed three album covers via his Instagram. The first single from the album was released on February 14, 2013, titled " Domo 23" along with the music video which features cameos from Domo Genesis, Earl Sweatshirt, Jasper Dolphin and Taco Bennett. On February 26, 2013, Tyler performed the songs "Domo23" and "Treehome95" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Tyler the Creator Lyrics
Yeah, ayo
Ayo
I put the feline in my hair, looking like a chia pet
And you know they getting green, if a flower on their neck
If a flower on their neck, hit Clancy on the text
I ain't tryna check a bag, can we get another jet?
I ain't gas niggas up, but that fuel is 50 grand
Passionfruit in D.R., had me dripping in the sand
New nigga from New York, I'ma give him sticky hands
Sticky fingers from the green, Jasper playing with them grams
They was playing at the grams, one nom' ain't enough
I'm a make sure that that shit ain't happening again
Golf boys, it's them golf boys
In that 12 seater, wings looking like a hawk, boy
Getting to the paper, better re-up on the chalk board
Because the student turned into the teacher
Don't talk boy, class in session
1 through 5, I'm a 7
I'ma god, nigga, ask your reverend
And that crib in Bel-Air is heaven
Hot-coco outta chinas nigga pass the beverage, yeah
Comme Des on that hombre
Haters with the long face
New whip is Pirelli tire'd like a long day
Big dollars, the scent Prada
Skinny nigga also big poppa, women they adore me
If you see me out in public, no picture don't record me
I don't really fuck with y'all niggas, selfish at the orgy, uh
Bitch
One take, yeah

Album concept for Tyler: An album called Emotional Outcast where each song describes a insecurity that a character he creates has and each title is the name of the person. And at the end they all meet and feel like they have finally found people that they can be comfortable being anti social with. I’m so obsessed with this idea, I’ll even make a track listing:
1. CHARACTERS
2. FRANK
3. REX
4. SHILOH
5. BILLIE
6. CARTER
7. NAPOLEON
8. SETH
9. KYLIE
10. EARL/ OMARI/ SCOTT
11. KALI
12. RAKIM
13. OKOMA
14. THE JOURNEY BRINGS US HERE
