Tyler The Creator - Cherry Bomb

Fourth album from TTC originally released in 2015 - Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Schoolboy Q are among the big guests on Cherry Bomb.

It is practically an all-caps homage to Pharrell's funk-rock vanity project, trading in the grayscale of his angst to explore the technicolour corners of his quirkiness. The Odd Future frontman is at his most indecisive, swerving from high-decibel ear assaults ("Deathcamp," "Pilot") to sugary, saxophone-laced cuddle tunes ("Find Your Wings," (expletive) "Young / Perfect"). He makes the obligatory rap muscle-flexing feel like recess, hopscotching through Galaga blips with Schoolboy Q ("The Brown Stains of Darkeese Latifah Part 6-12 (Remix)") and playing lyrical hot potato with Kanye West and Lil Wayne ("Smuckers").
