How are yall liking the new Tyler album? At first I was very skeptical, but it's starting to grow on me and I'm liking it now.

Only listened to most of the songs once so I can't make proper judgment yet, but they're all pretty catchy. "Igor's Theme" is my favorite because of that badass synth.

Ended up giving it a strong 7/3.5 on RateYourMusic compared to the 9 that Melon (Fantano) gave it for the review he recently posted for it on Youtube. Like I legit like the soundscape and the feel you can get from this album both from the sound and lyrics, Flower Boy was the sound of Tyler blooming but Igor was the sound of Tyler being at his most vulnerable. Was more of a fan of Flower Boy which I gave a strong 8 so that is mostly the reason why I decided to keep Igor at a 7. I Think was my fave track on this record.

It's good imo but I think I still like Flower Boy more. It starts of really strong, earfquake is like one of his best songs ever but after that every song sounds way too similar to me. I'm not really into the lyrics either, especially when they're mixed low as fuck it's hard to pay full attention to what he's saying.
I'm not super into it but its cool to see everyone getting hyped over it tho.

This man and his music keeps getting better and better. At first glance, it's the best work of Tyler's discography and a leading contender for album of the year. It tells a story that makes for every perspective of a love story and an album that does require several listens (which is why I've been having it on repeat).

Tyler is diverse with the songs, but still manages to keep the mood/vibe of the narrative and themes consistent. Igor has a cloudy and dream-like feeling to it, *Randolph Grant voice* and I love it!

IGOR is easily Tyler's best project. The album perfectly mixes neo-soul with psychedelic and synthfunk influences that blows away the production on all of his previous albums. Tyler also comes off more personal on this album (typical for a breakup album) which makes it his most mature and fully realized album yet. Tyler is at his most emotionally charged and resonant, it's a glimpse at a fantastic moment of artistic clarity and realization of talent.

Yeah I do feel like the middle tracks of the album kind of all blend together, but yeah forreal earfquake is one of his best songs ever. That shits been on repeat since it leaked for me and Carti kills it, Tyler knew exactly how to use him on that track

I've listened to it a bit more now and I think its starting to grow on me a little. I still don't find Tyler's take on a breakup album very interesting lyrically but holy shit the instrumentals sound gorgeous. Really starting to enjoy I THINK, A BOY IS A GUN, and WHAT'S GOOD, those tracks and earfquake are some of Tyler's best work for sure.

I like this side of Tyler, the video for Earfquake was hilarious. Also love the way he spells it.
I prefer my vocals for break up songs to be different but rappers hearts break too.
His dance moves are classic Tyler tho. This album showing he can do more than just rap but he doesn't forget to show he can rap as well.

Overall I think it's a very unique project but it's def some Tyler shit. He's always been different, this is him being different.

"So
Take your mask off
I need her out the picture (Wade in your water)
Take your mask off (Yeah)
Stop lyin' for these niggas
Stop lyin' to yourself
I know the real you
Don't save, don't save, don't save
Halloween ain't for a minute, lose the costume
You need to chill, okay
Been runnin' from the targets and 'em back in the day
And now they working their all, another track out the DAW
Actin' a fool, actin' a ball, we packin' the park, yeah
But I'm still runnin'
Out of time"
One of my favorite parts of the album
