Born Tyler Gregory Okonma, the 25-year-old mastermind behind Odd Future Wolfgang Kill Them All is on the ride of his life and he’s never been happier. The Los Angeles native released his Cherry Bomb April 13, 2015, on which he toured heavily to support. He seems more comfortable on the road than off the road. He gets to skate all over the country, perform for a packed crowd every night and according to him, “Do whatever the fuck he wants.” The way he carries himself, it’s clear he’s just having fun. After all, he knows this could all be gone tomorrow. If there was ever anyone who fully embraced the phrase “carpe diem,” it would be him. There are countless videos on YouTube with titles like “Funny Moments with Tyler, the Creator” or “Tyler, the Creator’s Best Vines,” which really showcase his outlandish sense of humor, which trickles into everything he does, including the video for “Pillow Talk.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFLP9XzFrq0
In other Tyler, the Creator news, the rapper will also appear at Chance the Rapper's inaugural Magnificent Coloring Day festival in Chicago in September and he recently remixed Zayn Malik's "Pillow Talk.” Check out www.oddfuture.com orwww.campfloggnaw.com for more information.
