A True Artist: Tyler the Creator of the OFWGKTA

I have always admired people who speak the truth and do it in such a straight forward manner, but this is the first human being I have admired that is younger than I. Yet, not that age FUCKING matters.

This kid really has an understanding for what it means to appreciate being independent. Yes, I think its great that I was able to post this on July 4th and yes, Tyler deserves this kind of attention. He stands as a icon for the bridge of Punk ideology into the Hip Hop community.

As made reference to by the Creator himself, some people say he is selling out by getting big and showing up on TV. However, is it selling out when you purposefully make that decision to go about and be known. Many people want glory, but most people aren’t honest with themselves on how they get to that level. Tyler, on the other hand, is.

Tyler the Creator, I fist bump, nod my head, but not quite kneel, to you.
