Tyler, The Creator

Tyler, The Creator is a rapper, singer and producer from Hawthorne, California, who started out in the Odd Future collective and has since moved from abrasive, horror-tinged hip-hop to the jazz- and soul-inflected sound of Flower Boy, IGOR and Call Me If You Get Lost. He has won Grammys for Best Rap Album, and he produces, directs and designs his own visuals and fashion line. Live, he tends to build his shows around the album of the moment, with staging and costume changes designed as part of the performance rather than added on top.
