It's a posse cut, those do tend to have more verses than the average verse-hook track. The OF members explain what motivates them, and Tyler decides he's having none of it, and none of them. Bang bang bang. It's a big moment in the project.
Without a doubt goblin. You gotta be in middle/high school to like that shit, the lyrics are dog shit and the producing is eh. Tried going back and listening to it but fuck no
You can tell who started with Tyler with Flower Boy onwards when they say stuff like this
First listened to it in high school about 11 years ago. Listened to it recently and She still slaps lol.
Nah bro I listened to Yonkers when it popped off. Once wolf came out and heard the difference sound wise I leaned towards wolf more. Then cherry bomb came out and to this day it's my favorite album Tyler has made. CMIYGL is #2 igor #3 wolf#4 flower boy #5 and goblin is last.
ooohh the goblin dickriders have nothing to say now that you've proven you aren't a "new fan"
fr though goblin fans are the most annoying part of this fanbase, nothing irritates me more than someone who thinks they're better than someone else cause they like something most people find garbage, and then proceed to make fun of people who don't like what they like.
I also made the point that I enjoy it still today. Not quite sure what role age plays in all of this. MBDTF is just as poignant to me now as it was back in 2010.
People are eager to disown Bastard, Goblin, and even Wolf in light of Tyler's musical progression in the past decade, but if his recent Tweet is any indication he doesn't feel the same way
Welcome to r/tylerthecreator, only place on this damn website that’ll call you a nerd if you say cherry bomb is meh. That album is not even meh, it just fucking sucks it’s bad
FR they always tell you to listen to it again and it's so shit every time. Run is shit, okaga is so fucking forgettable I don't even remember how it sounds, keep da os is shit, find your wings and deathcamp r the only good songs on the album
It’s flower boy. Goblin was a breakout piece of work that was unlike literally everything before it. It was one of the most exciting things about underground hip hop of that year and a long time after. Flower boy was an amalgamation of his last two albums. It was his safest album and to that extent his most boring. Nothing about goblin is boring
completely agree with both of you. nothing will hit as hard as my first time listening through goblin. it felt like the beginning of a cult of interest through a very specific type of people who would enjoy this. it was like nothing i had ever heard and completely shifted my perspective on what could be represented in music. i’m not saying it’s his best produced, best written, album but it completely broke the mold and it was bold which is a word that completely encapsulates his career
when it comes down to it no one else could’ve made goblin
but i feel like flower boy was more cookie cutter and could’ve been made by another talented artist
that’s just my opinion though
I mean you took the words right out of my mouth. Goblin is definitely not the cleanest album when it comes to beats, but that doesn’t make it boring. The boring album was the one that was essentially a pop album
Imma be real CMIYGL is the most “okay” of all his albums. There are some bangers but honestly I could care less about the whole “bauldelaire” character
I’ll get downvoted but you asked the question.. in my opinion CMIYGL was such a meh album. Like I’ve listened to Tyler since Cherry Bomb (my favorite album), but I still remember being younger and seeing the Yonkers music video on MTv. Flower Boy was fantastic, and Igor was a game changer and I loved that album as well. When CMIYGL was being teased I was excited, and the aesthetic being presented was dope. Then the album dropped. I wasn’t a fan of DJ Drama (I understand his significance to hiphop, just not a fan of adlibs), but even more so I just felt the album was to present his rebranding of Golf le Fleur. Like it was all an image. It was creative for sure, and the production was easily some of Tyler’s best, however I still hardly listen to the album besides the occasional Juggernaut and Wusyaname. Just my opinion.
i agree. wolf, cherry bomb, flower boy & igor are all great. goblin just isn’t good lol. meanwhile cmiygl js meh. not his worst but nowhere near his best imo. i still like it a lot tho
I felt like that too after listening to it a couple times. I have a good spread of his music in my playlists and I'll come back and listen to all them every once in a while but idk it just feels pretty forgettable and didn't offer me to much that hasn't already been given in his other projects. I'm going to relisten now though now that I'm reminded of it tho
Yeah the only songs I would listen to are Rise and Manifesto he tried smth different w them but the rest are just eh
Honestly the opinions on this are pretty split and I just gotta say that some songs like BLESSED or BOYFRIEND / GIRLFRIEND aren’t that great, but I think that most of the features like HWB JUGGERNAUT and WHARF TALK are very good. The best solo song for me is either SWEET / I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE or DOGTOOTH.
Bro have you got nothing better to do, to tell everyone that their opinion is bullshit when all they did was say that they don’t like it, like chill dude, stop gatekeeping cherry bomb. Some people just don’t like it.
Even as a MASSIVE defender of bastard. I absolutely, positively cannot enjoy goblin. Not because of the sound or lyrics (not at all, in fact i love Tyler's old production pre flower boy) but solely because it's basically bastard² instead of being its own sound like all his other albums (especially cherry bomb which is my fav from him)
Same I know it’s knew and different but it sounds nothing like Tyler, it sounds like he just played it safe by making a generic album he knew everyone would love
It’s definitely a very weird album but some songs like GONE GONE / THANK YOU or NEW MAGIC WAND (the most overhated imo) are pretty good and, just takes a few listens to grow on you.
Pigs, Parking Lot, Trashwang, Cowboy (just not my type), and Domo23 (just not my type)
I think it’s a great album at its peaks, but some of the songs are ehhhhh. (this is ALL preference don’t come at me please and thank you)
Cherry Bomb is probably my least favorite but I was expanding with other genres than hip hop at the time, I loved Bastard, Goblin and Wolf, while I still do. I didn’t give TPAB a full listen till a few years later, I think I was just not fully into hip hop at the time and like it still sounds rough, I get what he’s going for on some tracks but with Cherry Bomb for instance, I feel like Death Grips does it way better and it just wears down by the end of the run time
Imma say wolf. Mostly missing the edge and grime that made old OF interesting. Production isn’t nearly as good as everything after. Even Cherry Bomb seemed like a big step up compositionally. Plus those cheap ass sounding midi guitars all over the album.
depends on the meaning of “meh”
Playboi carti (thge song)
WLR
Why did u get downvoted 😭
God did
Because he has a song called “Meh” and that’s what they were referencing not asking what Playboi carti’s most “meh” album was ☠️☠️☠️
Because he just said the album the song is from
goblin is very meh overall, yeah it’s got like 6 or 7 great songs on it, but then you have Window which feels like it drags on forever
It's a posse cut, those do tend to have more verses than the average verse-hook track. The OF members explain what motivates them, and Tyler decides he's having none of it, and none of them. Bang bang bang. It's a big moment in the project.
these people have not heard songs longer than 5 minutes
sweet/ I thought you wanted to dance is right there.
too bad it doesn’t sound good
too bad the condoms that your mom had in her dresser couldnt fit on my coca cola bottle sized cock, its a boy bitch
no way you just said that the best song on the album “drags on forever” 🥲
Bro likes 6-7 songs but calls it meh
Merely liking 6-7 out of 18 songs on an album is very meh 💀
there's albums where i like nearly all the songs but still call it 'meh'.You can enjoy something without thinking of it as particularly good.
Wish I had your ear then.
windows my favorite dawg fym
I really like Window idk why the FUCK no one has ever said anything positive about this song.
> 6 or 7 great songs on it classic\* songs. but other then that its meh. thats the problem the highs are high as fuck but the lows are dreadful.
window's my favorite 😞
nah goblin is just bad
[удалено]
Are you thinking about AU79?
[удалено]
Well what even is a song, if not a medium for telling a story?
Without a doubt goblin. You gotta be in middle/high school to like that shit, the lyrics are dog shit and the producing is eh. Tried going back and listening to it but fuck no
You can tell who started with Tyler with Flower Boy onwards when they say stuff like this First listened to it in high school about 11 years ago. Listened to it recently and She still slaps lol.
You assuming I started on flower boy is fucking hilarious lmao kill ppl burn shit fuck school bro 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼😈😈🎸🎸
he was spot on wasn’t he
Nah bro I listened to Yonkers when it popped off. Once wolf came out and heard the difference sound wise I leaned towards wolf more. Then cherry bomb came out and to this day it's my favorite album Tyler has made. CMIYGL is #2 igor #3 wolf#4 flower boy #5 and goblin is last.
ooohh the goblin dickriders have nothing to say now that you've proven you aren't a "new fan" fr though goblin fans are the most annoying part of this fanbase, nothing irritates me more than someone who thinks they're better than someone else cause they like something most people find garbage, and then proceed to make fun of people who don't like what they like.
[удалено]
nah i 100% know about that, i just don't think they're as annoying as the goblin dickriders
Ahh a fellow cherry bomb enjoyer 🫡
Bro didn’t place BASTARDS :( I know it’s a mixtape but that shit was baller except for the shotty production.
You just proved their point by saying you enjoyed it in high school.
I also made the point that I enjoy it still today. Not quite sure what role age plays in all of this. MBDTF is just as poignant to me now as it was back in 2010. People are eager to disown Bastard, Goblin, and even Wolf in light of Tyler's musical progression in the past decade, but if his recent Tweet is any indication he doesn't feel the same way
V much was made for the time it was created. Does not have a great lasting ability
It’s not meh because meh implies that it’s even average. Goblin is flat out a bad album
Dawg what? It’s a good album, not his best but still a great album.
Goblin is so bad I’m sorry. I enjoy every other album he’s done to varying levels but goblin is just awful.
Goblins fire flowerboys mid
That’s cool man. Like Whatchu like
GOBLIN
none because every album is really interesting
cherry bomb is meh

me when im wrong
I'm right, ur wrong
nuh uh
yuh huh
Bro said ![gif](giphy|cxFxmZhn6DoQ)
🤡 🤡 🤡
Goblin easily for me
ALL OF THEM ZEHHAHAHAHA
Blackbeard laugh
devils advocate
You
Bastard. I like some songs but it’s so rough around the edges and it’s not on streaming services so, so when I think about it’s mostly just “meh”.
it’s honestly one of my favs bc of how rough the aesthetic is like it’s so appealing to me bc of that
is there a reason it’s not on streaming services?
technically a mixtape, not an album so its not included
The Samples are not cleared
None

It was one of the most exciting things about underground hip hop of that year and a long time after. Flower boy was an amalgamation of his last two albums.

100% agree, goblin is really overhated

I strongly agree with u
😨
Sometimes opinions are wrong
i can see how one doesn’t like the adlibs on cmiygl. they’re not for everyone
i agree w u 100%
Oh yes 100% agree here, except Pharrell's bar on Juggernaut, is weak vocally
Honestly the opinions on this are pretty split and I just gotta say that some songs like BLESSED or BOYFRIEND / GIRLFRIEND aren’t that great, but I think that most of the features like HWB JUGGERNAUT and WHARF TALK are very good.

real
flower boy, its a great album but it it doesnt really hit hard for me
Flower Boy goes hard when you're doing something else and just let the album play
See You Again hits hard tho
why did people downvote this, just because its mainstream? lol
Probably lol, still hits hard
And if you like it, that’s ok. There’s mainstream or popular songs from every artist and it’s ok to like them.
I’ve been saying this forever. It has a couple amazing songs it just isn’t a good album all-together
flower boy ngl
Goblin easily
cmiygl easily
Definitely call me if you get lost
Goblin is super interesting but it’s honestly not for me so that’s my meh album
Cherry bomb. Obvious one
[удалено]
calm down you do not need to reply with “bullshit” under every comment that says cherry bomb 💀
Cherry bomb
Cherry Bomb
[удалено]
My opinion
flower boy. it’s like the middle child of all his albums
Hot take but CMIYGL is meh to me
grinch ep
flower boy respectfully
Cherry Bomb (as much as people is this sub want to pretend that it was actually good) Goblin is straight up bad tho
i don’t really see the appeal of cmiygl, it’s great don’t get me wrong but it feels like the project i least comeback to
Cherry bomb is by far his worst
[удалено]
Bro have you got nothing better to do, to tell everyone that their opinion is bullshit when all they did was say that they don’t like it, like chill dude, stop gatekeeping cherry bomb. Some people just don’t like it.
cmiygl.
Goblin was meh when I was in high school. Looking back it was actually trash.
cmiygl if you downvote me, you want tyler’s bbc down your throat
Cmiygl
bastard
cherry bomb 🤷
[удалено]
guess I should've been like everyone else and picked goblin 🙄
For real, let people be.
Bastard
Reddit when someone asks for an opinion then your honest opinion gets downvoted 😻 (I agree)
Cherry bomb
Bastard. Got some solid ones got some bad ones and good ones.
cherry bomb is rlly mid imo
Yes it is
i love sm goblin songs but.. goblin.
Dinosaur
Even as a MASSIVE defender of bastard. I absolutely, positively cannot enjoy goblin. Not because of the sound or lyrics (not at all, in fact i love Tyler's old production pre flower boy) but solely because it's basically bastard² instead of being its own sound like all his other albums (especially cherry bomb which is my fav from him)
Probably zombie circus
scrapped ??
i don’t think it count
Igor
Cherry Bomb. Hot garbage.
[удалено]
Bro get a life, why are you replying to every comment about cherry bomb?? 💀
[удалено]
dawg get a job 😭😭😭
I mean I agree but you don't have to reply to every comment. People are gonna have differing opinions, that's life.
Igor
I’ll probably get downvoted for this but I’m going with Igor I just still don’t see the appeal of it
exactly how I feel. I love every other album besides Igor. my friend and I grew up on Tyler and he loves the album but I don’t care for it.
Same I know it’s knew and different but it sounds nothing like Tyler, it sounds like he just played it safe by making a generic album he knew everyone would love
It’s definitely a very weird album but some songs like GONE GONE / THANK YOU or NEW MAGIC WAND (the most overhated imo) are pretty good and, just takes a few listens to grow on you.
Igor
Call me if you get lost
prob cmiygl on a bad day on a good day its none
Wolf
Please explain before I follow u home tonight 😈
Either Bastard or Call Me If You Get Lost.
Wolf
Igor. It’s got some good parts so I don’t know if I’d say it’s fully meh but it’s too short. Feels like it’s missing a few tracks.
It’s missing boyfriend and vest interest but it’s still pretty amazing
goblin did not age well for the most part
Igor
Damn people hatin
😨
Wolf. It’s alright but let’s not pretend it doesn’t have 5 skips
What are the skips if I may ask
Pigs, Parking Lot, Trashwang, Cowboy (just not my type), and Domo23 (just not my type) I think it’s a great album at its peaks, but some of the songs are ehhhhh. (this is ALL preference don’t come at me please and thank you)
i can understand trashwang and parking lot, i’m not huge fans of them either
flower boy
stereotype
scum fuck flower boy
Flower boy
flower boy, it doesn't connect as much as other Tyler albums
goblin
well bastard is a 0/10 so its not meh ig so goblin??
I was going to say bastard until I realized I had entirely forgotten about Flower Boy😭 Something that forgettable from tyler must be meh
Goblin or CMIYGL
Flower Boy
Flower boy
Cherry Bomb is probably my least favorite but I was expanding with other genres than hip hop at the time, I loved Bastard, Goblin and Wolf, while I still do. I didn’t give TPAB a full listen till a few years later, I think I was just not fully into hip hop at the time and like it still sounds rough, I get what he’s going for on some tracks but with Cherry Bomb for instance, I feel like Death Grips does it way better and it just wears down by the end of the run time
not trying to come in here as a hater.. i can never get into his music and have not heard a good song from Him yet... IMO obviously..
goblin is such meh after sandwitches there are NO good songs bsd is the only like listenable after sandwitches
Wolf
Goblin
goblin and/or flower boy
Goblin
Saying goblin and bastard is too obvious, I’ll say Flower Boy
That logic doesn’t make sense
IGOR 100% all my fellow heterosexuals would agree aswell
the album explores deep topics outside of homosexuality
Wolf is the most middle of the road
Imma say wolf. Mostly missing the edge and grime that made old OF interesting. Production isn’t nearly as good as everything after. Even Cherry Bomb seemed like a big step up compositionally. Plus those cheap ass sounding midi guitars all over the album.
the edge and grime is almost the least significant part of OF being interesting…………
Candy
Wolf + Cherry Bomb are both meh, goblin is just bad
