In the second track, “CORSO,” he raps “Cookie crumbs in the rolls, never no weed crumbs,” in reference to both the luxury of spilling food crumbs in his Rolls Royce and his decision to abstain from using drugs.

The track foreshadows a best-of-everything album, with the instrumental verbosity of the artist’s 2017 album “Flower Boy,” flashy production value of “IGOR” and introductory brevity of his 2013 album “Wolf.”īy using homonyms in a handful of songs, Tyler, The Creator doesn’t just deliver a few catchy bars, but rather an ode to his journey as a musician. The title of the opening song, “SIR BAUDELAIRE,” refers to Tyler, The Creator’s alter ego who brags about his success so casually that it sounds as if he’s making light of his own fame-driven apathy.

“CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST” is Tyler, The Creator’s sixth studio album, preceded by 2019 Grammy Award-winning “IGOR.” In a similar fashion to BROCKHAMPTON and JPEGMAFIA’s latest albums, it embraces a variety of lyrical formats, from melodic wordplay to explicit storytelling. The Los Angeles native rapper and musician’s latest rhythmically diverse, 16-track lineup jigsaws together the beloved parts of his older music at the risk of sacrificing the album’s cohesiveness. When Tyler, The Creator wrote “CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST,” he left the caps lock on.
