When Tyler, The Creator's Bawling Mom Joined Him On Stage, I Felt That

Tyler, The Creator has won the award for Best Rap Album for Igor at the 62nd Grammys Awards. In true Tyler style, he brought emotions out of each person thanks to a unprepared speech associated with his mother and list of influences


Tyler took the stage and let each person know that he hadn’t prepared anything, so he was speaking from the heart. With a bulleted format, Tyler went over each person who brought him to the point that he is today, have the ability to create such an inventive album like Igor. “One, to my mother, you did an excellent job raising this guy,” he mentioned as his mother bawled beside him. For his second point, he thanked his managers, saying, “you guys took a seed and watered it and I thank you for trusting my ideas.”


He continued by then pointing to fellow Atypical Future member Jasper Dolphin. “Three, to my companions and my family member for trusting my ideas and putting up with my annoying hyperactive energy,” he went on, also saying that he never totally felt accepted in rap.


For his last point, he thanked Pharrell Williams for “allowing me to be comfortable with myself and that opened up so several doors that you couldn’t imagine.”


Some of these opened doors for Igor were burned down earlier in the night thanks to Tyler’s dumb Grammy performance where, with an army of clones, he burned down a suburban neighborhood with performances of "Earfquake," with Charlie Wilson and Boyz II Males, and "New Magic Wand." It was representative of just how imaginative that Tyler is and surefire proof of why he won Best Rap Album in the opening place.
