Encyclopedic overview

Tyler Gregory Okonma (born March 6, 1991), known professionally as Tyler, the Creator, is an American rapper and record producer. Best known for his eclectic and experimental music, raw rhymes and extensive use of alter-egos and alternate personas in his albums, he has been described as an influential figure in alternative hip-hop during the 2010s and 2020s.

In the late 2000s he led and co-founded the music collective Odd Future. Within the group, Tyler participated as a rapper, producer, director and actor, releasing studio albums that he produced for its respective members. Tyler also performed on the group's sketch comedy show Loiter Squad (2012–2014). Along with his collaborations with the group, Tyler developed his solo career beginning with his self-released debut studio album, Bastard (2009). His second studio album, Goblin (2011), brought him mainstream media exposure, aided by the popularity of the single "Yonkers" and its accompanying music video. During this period, Tyler faced controversy in the media for his horrorcore-influenced sound and his violent, transgressive lyrical content.
