Biography

Los Angeles, California, USA (2007 – present)

Tyler Okonma (born March 6, 1991) is Tyler, The Creator, an American rapper, record producer, director, fashion designer, and the head of his own independent record label, Odd Future Records. He is the leader of Los Angeles, California, USA hip-hop collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All (OFWGKTA). Since his first recordings debuted on The Odd Future Tape in 2007, he has rapped on, and produced for, nearly every OFWGKTA release.

Tyler, The Creator is Okonma’s most commonly used alias, and the one that both of his first two albums are credited to, but he has used several others as well, including Wolf Haley, Ace (or Ace Creator), and Young Nigga, the latter of which was part of a prank on OFWGKTA’s official site. In addition, several other characters or alter egos portrayed by Tyler are featured in his music, such as Tron Cat and a therapist called Dr. TC.

In 2009, Tyler self-released his debut solo album Bastard as a free download off of the official OFWGKTA website. Two music videos were released for tracks off of Bastard, “VCR” and “French!,” both of which were directed by Tyler (credited as Wolf Haley). The album is focused around dialogues between Tyler and Dr. TC, and it received generally positive reviews from critics and blogs alike.

After signing to XL Recordings in February 2011, he released “Yonkers,” the lead single off his sophomoric album Goblin, which was released on May 10, 2011.

    ofwgkta is tight but it just so happened the mainstream media got ahold and shoved it down the brainwashed middle class and they fell in love with it. i mean they was tight when there lyrics actually meant something and rhymed...

    He needs to improve his rapping a lot. I love his imagery and dark lyrics, but the rhymes and beats could definitely be improved. He's capable of great things, I must admit.

    Why rappers always have to be "real", I mean his music is entertaining and makes fun listening. I don't really give shit if he does that in real life what he's rapping about.

    @TheSadMountain How isn't a guy who uses the word faggot a gimmick?. Most rapers could be called a gimmick though like Eminem.
