Tyler the Creator – Yonkers

Tyler the Creator

Yeppers! The kid did good, real good. As the reigning MTV Music Awards Best New Artist of 2011 Tyler the Creator, a.k.a. Ace Creator can hold is head up high. With this win there is a bit of vindication, or maybe validation. Validation not so much for him but for the naysayers who doubted and chugged the haterade by the gallon. And if you watched Mr. Creator, a.k.a. Wolf Haley, give his acceptance speech it was evident that he didn’t have one, but improvised, as is his trade and swore aplenty. No one in the house was more surprised than Tyler the Creator, well maybe Wiz Khalifa but that’s another story. Tyler is a fresh-faced impresario, maybe a bit of an oddball, but talented nonetheless. You got to give this young man mad props though for doing his thang big time, and at the end of his speech his advice to all up and coming would be rappers, chase your dream. Tyler the Creator’s 2nd album Goblin is worth checking out (as if you haven’t already), as for the video for the track Yonkers, it is one of the most, how do I say this, …um, interesting videos of  2011.
