Read Full BioTyler Gregory Okonma (born March 6, 1991) is Tyler, The Creator, a Grammy award-winning American rapper, record producer, director, fashion designer, and the head of his own independent record label, Odd Future Records. He is the leader of Los Angeles, California, USA hip-hop collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All (OFWGKTA). Since his first recordings debuted on The Odd Future Tape in 2007, he has 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 Nigga, 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 solo album Bastard as a free download off of the official OFWGKTA website. Two music videos were released for tracks off of Bastard, "VCR" and "French!," both of which were directed by Tyler (credited as Wolf Haley). The album is focused around 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 Bastard," 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 initially scheduled to be released sometime in 2012. 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 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 Wolf would be released on April 2, 2013. The same day 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
Ayo, did this shit in one take
Ayo
Check my bankroll ayo 400k for vehicle
Paintjob look like ashy ankles on Django
Interior look mango shotgun grape he look like mayo
Golden voice on payroll neck all gold like kayo corp
We aim at dorks get out the way yo
Keep them bucks in banks like yayo
Swampy niggas out the bayou
Pockets flooded yall be dilute watered down
I'm big mac I'm quarter pound you chicken nugget
Fuck it travel bag Balenciaga 30,000 just for luggage
Financial advisor buggin' flower boy is buzzin'
Grammy-nominated tell yo cousin ain't nobody fucking with him
Man, now they go
I cut off some friends, where they go
I stick to the plan that's the goal
Fuck these niggas man that's for sure
Uno the shoe red with the blue look like a flag what the fuck it do
Golf be the set no more OF like Ron Artest bitch we aim for your neck
Give a fuck about you or your respect yeah that way
Fuck your accolades but I made the cut like I pack a blade
You could call me brush I've been making waves
Since Ashley Banks' cousin had a fade but that's 92 I'm 91
Watts riot in my blood nigga whats up and that pussy pink like the drink in my cup
Lemonade yeah its minute maid I been getting paid pockets gaining weight
Your bank statements on Mary Kate but that's up to you
Man, now they go
I cut off some friends, where they go
I stick to the plan that's the goal
Fuck these niggas man that's for sure
Tell Tim Chalamet to come get at me
Skin glowing clear of acne diamonds see through so holographic
Red ones look like Aidan Mackey spent dinero like taxi driver
Handmade is that thing with tires but I rode the bike
And vill tail behind me and he got the cannon like he bagged Mariah
Yeah, we straight but if you wrinkle up the situation he will go grab the iron
And he do what I says like Simon no violence and my guy mixed like jambalaya
Man fuck with the fam we in Japan bitch you're a bum see you dont understand
Yeah, I cut off some friends t where you been? Bitch im in bel air been looking for land
Need a spot in the hills not the beach need a pool
Just to cool it I do need the grass not the sand
Got enough rocks, see check my hand
And I got crack watch how I talk
And it's still wolf gang bitch watch how I bark
Wallace still tripping on shit that I bought
But, I really do not care the cost cause okra
Man, now they go
I cut off some friends
