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.

    lol why would them not being funny have anything to do with being mainstream?

    Ka0in, no. Goblin was terrible, OF Tape vol2 was terrible, they completely changed their style and they made that shitty adult swim show. These guys are a joke now, and its kinda sad cuz they has so much potential. Only things anyone in OF did that are actually good are Bastard, EARL, and Radical. Everything else is garbage. Plus they have the most obnoxious fan base, Ive been to two of their shows a few years ago and its a bunch of 15 year olds shouting "FUCK SCHOOL IM DIFFERENT, YONKERS!"
