Tyler one of the few artists that will talk at length about why he loves music, his favorite parts of his own music, music theory, etc. and I LOVE THAT. He is truly a musical connoisseur and a fan of himself but in the most innocent and pure way, not egotistical way.

Also let's get into the fact that Tomorrow is Stevie Wonder coded DOOOWN :clap3::clap3::clap3:

He love him some Stevie, as he should. I hope he gets to work with him one day, before Stevie leaves us. 

 

and yes, I love the vocal melody and harmonies on that song. It kind of reminded me of Boyz ll Men but they of course are also sourced from Stevie. Also, the guitar melody reminds me of Radiohead's 'Faust Arp'.

This is absolutely at the very least in the top 5 albums released this year, not a single dud and the replay value is insane

Sticky needs a video for sure. A banger. Glorilla on an insane run.

Everytime they review some of my fave albums, the score is ALWAYS between 7 or 8, nothing less, nothing more, lol. I guess, that's better than getting outright panned, but still I try to avoid their reviews

Ok this is becoming my favorite album of his. It's by far his most accessible one. It hit on 1st listen which is rare (for me). The melodies and production are top notch :allears: we need to protect him at all costs :allears:

The way ATRLers in other threads are still trying to paint him as some evil sexist who "wants to rape pregnant women", when this album has lyrics like these :toofunny2:

 

 

How hard is it to understand that:

 

A) He didn't mean those lyrics/tweets seriously (even tho I agree they were in poor taste)

B) PEOPLE CAN CHANGE!!! It's been a damn decade, let it go :dies:

idc what they say lol, I listen to what I want.

 

I just find the "black male privilege" part funny. Did any racist white women get widespread country bans or radio bans for saying the n word, cause I don't recall. 

 

Anyway, his favorite songs on the album are Judge Judy and Tomorrow

Judge Judy is in my top 3 (along with TIWD and Like Him) and Tomorrow is great as well (the second half of the album is flawless in general), taste jumped out :clap3:

I've never been a huge fan but I decided to listen to this album on a whim today and I'm kinda obsessed :jonny3: 3 listens in back to back already.

 

After a few listens St Chroma, Rah Tah Tah, Darling I, I Killed You, Sticky, and Balloon are all hitting hard

It's been almost a month, yet this album stays on repeat for me :jonny6: Like, it's such a cohesive body of work, and even the tracks that I didn't initially love per se, just kept growing on me (I Killed You :jonnycat:). Honestly, now I think that CHROMAKOPIA is 9.5/10. Easily in the top 3 best projects released in 2024 for me, if not #1.

 

The success it's been getting is also so damn deserved and satisfying. Him earning his first 3 top 10 hits, despite the unusual date release, 3 weeks at #1 on BB200, etc... seeing this masterpiece getting its flowers just makes me so happy :clap3:
