While Tyler possesses the most unique voice in the entire rap game, he has not terribly evolved his style as an artist. With Earl Sweatshirt emerging as the most prominent rapper out of Odd Future, it seems that Tyler has settled for simply maintaining his tenets as an artist.

This combination is very interesting, but in some ways really misses the mark. Tyler once again wonders into his unusual lyrical style, contrasting homophobic, violent, depressive, political, and love emotions. The use of many high-hats contrasted against dark bass lines allows for elegantly disguised dirty beats.

While not exceptional in any sense, the production value on the album is higher than most Odd Future projects. The simple answer to this question is yes, he brings back some of the past stylings of the past while progressing somewhat into uncharted waters.ДЇrom the moment of the first beat drop, you can immediately acknowledge the production value of the album. This overarching story seems to give us an insight into the subliminal nature of TylerвЂ™s consciousness, and his exposure of the deepest and darkest thoughts that we all have yet failed to vocalize.Д¬oming into Wolf there was a significant amount of hype to see if he followed in the same direction as Goblin, or if he reverted back into the style that he exhibited in Bastard. Wolf is his third album, and fits into the story arc seen in his past two albums along with вЂњSam is deadвЂќ off of Odd Future Vol. This album would get a four star rating if a couple of songs were cut but overall it is a great listen and I finally understand when people say, вЂњTyler, The Creator is talentedвЂќ.Tyler, the Creator has maintained a rap career based upon the tenets of shock value mixed with extreme amounts of potential. вЂњTrashwangвЂќ is a boring cypher track after hearing the verses on вЂњParking LotвЂќ with Casey Veggies & Mike G and the Earl Sweatshirt & Domo Genesis collaboration вЂњRustyвЂќ with a great verse from Tyler with the line that made me laugh the hardest, вЂњIвЂ™m harder than DJ Khlaed playing the quiet gameвЂќ. вЂњPigsвЂќ is dark in tone and subject matter as it tells the tale of a bullied kid that finds a group of victims like him and gets revenge on the popular kids in school with the force of their hidden accessories under their trench coats. вЂњJambaвЂќ and вЂњSlaterвЂќ are just forgettable fillers. With that said, there are some songs that I really do not see myself listening to everyday. After some research, I found out the singerвЂ™s name is Tallulah Belle Willis, Bruce Willis & Demi MooreвЂ™s daughter. The song sounds like a remixed version of BauuerвЂ™s вЂњHarlem ShakeвЂќ and features an incredible voice screaming вЂњTamaleвЂќ and вЂњGolf WangвЂќ repeatedly. For some reason, I keep going back to вЂњTamaleвЂќ.

Honestly, I am really amazed at how much I like the songs on this album. and Erykah Badu feature little to no rapping from the Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All leader. The three songs in the form one, вЂњParty IsnвЂ™t Over/Campfire/BimmerвЂќ featuring LГ¦titia Sadier & Frank Ocean and вЂњTreehome 95вЂќ featuring Coco O. On this album, which he solely produced, there are songs where the production is the main showcase. вЂњColossusвЂќ, is an amusing story about Tyler being cornered at an amusement park by overzealous fans, but the best tracks are when he is emotionally open on songs like вЂњAnswerвЂќ where he wants his long lost Dad to answer if he ever calls, and вЂњLoneвЂќ which tells the story of TylerвЂ™s last interaction with his grandmother before losing her to cancer. There are a lot of tracks with great storytelling from his own personal experience except for вЂњ48вЂќ, where he portrays a drug dealer with a conscience, which is still worth a listen for the commentary from Nas. Interesting enough, the main subject of most of the songs is Tyler himself. Throughout the album, there are several skits at the end of songs that tell us about WolfвЂ™s interactions with his new peers. Surprisingly, I actually find myself enjoying a large number of tracks from his album, Wolf.Д«y the end of the instrumental of the album opener, listeners are introduced to the character of the new kid at summer camp by the name of Wolf. While I have enjoyed Wolf HaleyвЂ™s production in the past, I have always thought his rhymes were really simple and featured no factual subject matter just made up stories for shock value: rape, murder, etc. Except for Franck Ocean and The Internet (Syd tha Kid & Matt Martians), I really paid them no attention. In the last two years, I have heard about how he and the rest of Odd Future are really talented.

This is the same weird skater dude that does more antics for attention than putting focus on his music. I am actually listening to an album from Tyler, The Creator. Halfway through the album on my first listen, a thought popped in my head.
