tyler the creator cherry bomb full album

In Wolf, Tyler was able to somehow say more in less. Tyler, feeling stressed, mentions how there aren’t leaders or anyone else to look for them and he feels as if he’s the only one. Shane Powers in the track is supposed to be the public eye, telling Tyler that he holds a lot of responsibility for the youth. Cherry Bomb’s way of combatting this idea is somewhat similar but it’s much more distracted even if the entire track is dedicated to a concept. Especially in “Buffalo”, it sounds like a Wolf track more specifically “Rusty” where Tyler talks about his controversial subject matter, and how people should be themselves more. I know I’ve been mentioning a lot of differences from this album to his previous, but his personality for the most part is the same. This is an ambitious idea, and yeah that’s a great way of describing Cherry Bomb, ambitious. Tyler is doing this on purpose and mentions his new sense of direction in the opening track of the album “DEATHCAMP” It’s an introduction to the listeners and gives a sample of what the album will sound like, it has aggressive lyrics and an attitude but also tries to incorporate singing to balance the two styles out. In Cherry Bomb however it is much more difficult to understand his approach when talking about subjects. In Tyler’s previous albums like Wolf, he was mostly making songs that had a similar approach to the topics he would rap about. I decided to go back to his most polarizing record because of that track and I wanted to see if it does sound shifty, or maybe it’s aged very well over the past seven years.Ĭherry Bomb was supposed to be the shift and change from a traditional style to a more abrasive and adventurous experiment.

In that song Tyler talks about his previous albums and how they’ve affected him heavily, in the beginning of the track he talks about Cherry Bomb and how it “sounded shifty”.

I praised that record to death, but track seven (Massa) was the most interesting to me. Two weeks ago I wrote a lengthy review on Tyler the Creator’s “Call Me If You Get Lost”.
