The diversity shows how much Tyler has grown. While “Cherry Bomb” is not part of the same story that the first three albums were, there is no story whatsoever on “Cherry Bomb.” The album is just a collection of random thoughts that boil down to complaining.Įven though the lyrics are disappointing, the production is marvelous. Tyler, the Creator’s first three albums were heavily driven by a narrative. The lack of narrative is another disappointing aspect of the album. There is no added excitement to his music, it is just him either complaining or trying to become a better person. The usual gay slurs and sex jokes appear over and over again, as well as his references to controversial figures like Donald Sterling. On the subject of lyrics, Tyler, the Creator continues to disappoint. While the three songs are logically in place with each other by having similar themes, the jump from emotions is unusual. The next three songs go on to reveal his need to buckle down and not mess around. For instance, in the second track “BUFFALO,” Tyler speaks about the past controversies that have surrounded his career since his mainstream debut. The lyrical content of the album is all over the place. In fact, the only thing the album is lacking is clarity, something that it desperately needs. The album is a sonic jumble filled to the brim with ideas. His latest album, “Cherry Bomb,” is a testament to it. He is politically incorrect and follows no rules but his own. Tyler, the Creator’s career is marred with chaos. Cherry Bomb is a follow up to his 2013 album, Wolf. He performed the two singles that were released before the album this year at Coachella. Two songs released earlier than the drop date featured works by Charlie Wilson, Toro Y Moi and Cole Alexander of the Black Lips. Tyler, the Creator (above), released his new album, Cherry Bomb, on April 13.
