Tyler, the Creator's newest studio album CHROMAKOPIA has arrived.
Clocking in at almost an hour, the 14-track project features contributions from the likes of Doechii, GloRilla, Daniel Caesar, Thundercat and Willow Smith. The followup to 2021's CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST is theorized to be inspired by Chroma the Great, a conductor from the late Norton Juster's The Phantom Tollbooth who creates colors with his orchestra — which possibly explains the artist's use of monochromatic colors during this album cycle.
CHROMAKOPIA hears Tyler still attached to his rap roots but is now on a more expansive plane of music, utilizing more obscure and hidden samples scattered throughout the tracks. This attention to musical detail works strongly in his favor rather than against him, and this doesn't come as a surprise when looking at the artist's career; BASTARD is on a completely different sonic space in comparison to CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST, and Tyler himself has never been the kind to shy away from showcasing his creative growth. Unapologetic and and as artistic as ever, it's now only a matter of whether or not his listeners will join him on this sonic adventure.
Stream Tyler, the Creator's CHROMAKOPIA on and Apple Music.
