Tyler collaborated with several other artists to form Odd Future. The first Odd Future mix tape was released in 2008, 2011 when they established Odd Future as an official record label. Around this time is when Tyler also launched his own clothing line called "GOLF WANG" Tyler while still being apart of Odd Future worked on his own projects such as Yonkers, released in 2010, and his first studio album "Goblin" being released in 2011.

Tyler, the Creator - Inspirational lyric

# data[].attributes.body
In 911/Mr. Lonely some lyrics that stand out to me are "They say the loudest in the room is weak
That's what they assume, but I disagree
I say the loudest in the room
Is prolly the loneliest one in the room (that's me)"

These lyrics stand out to me because I really relate to Tyler's humor and he ironically alludes to the loudest person or most extroverted person being the loneliest or the saddest. It's also right at the beat switch which makes the lyrics hit harder. This is one of the first Tyler, the Creator songs I listened too so this song will always one of my favorites no matter how overplayed it gets.

The song Colossus on Tyler, the Creator's "Wolf" album has the lyric "In school I was the one thinking outside of boxes/ so everybody in them would say I got problems" this lyric to me represents Tyler's distaste for school and trying to be what people perceive as normal. Tyler knew that being himself wasn't accepted by others and didn't care, being called weird was proof of his ability to be himself.

In interviews, he's said that he hates Hawthorne and Ladera Heights and that he doesn't think his background should impede or have any effect on his work. He still lives in LA but despises the place he grew up in.

Tyler, the Creator in his early hip-hop days would usually wear any pair of skate shoes, jeans, and a clean boxy tee, having grown up in LA and skating all the time this was the natural path his fashion would go. When his albums started gaining more traction he began to express himself more, wearing loafers, jeans, and other items from the brand he created "Golf Wang" Around the release of IGOR he started showing off his tailored suits and would wear them on tour while performing songs from IGOR. Now if you were to see Tyler at a public event or out around town he would most likely be wearing a a sweater, vest, or polo, he'd be wearing jeans and he'd be wearing loafers.
