Name of record/artist: Tyler, The Creator - Wolf (2013)

DIBS: What emotion does this record invoke for you?

All the emotions. Mainly happiness, but a little bit of anger, confusion, ya know, the usual teen angst stuff. 

DIBS: What is your favorite instrumentation part of this album? 

There are 3 instrumentals that I fell in love with on this album: Awkward, 48, and Bimmer on Partyisntover/Campfire/Bimmer. Treehome95 was amazing as well. 

DIBS: Does this record bring back any memories for you?

This came out my senior year of high school, so that's what I attach most to this album; Skating with friends, going to the mall, going to Sonic after football games, going to parties, all that teenage bullshit. 

DIBS: What are the highlight tracks?  

IFHY, Awkward, 48, Partyisntover/Campfire/Bimmer, Tamale 

DIBS: Describe the album artwork

There's like 4 different album covers for this but my favorite cover is the drawing with Tyler sitting on his bike Slater in the woods. 

DIBS: RAPID WORD ASSOCIATION - What is the FIRST word that comes to your head when this album comes on?  

YOUTH

DIBS: Why should WE listen to this record?

This record has a little bit of everything: Silly/childish wordplay, some sad/dark tracks, some very pretty synths on the mainly instrumental tracks, but overall its just an album that can remind you of all the feelings of being young. 


Wolf is the second studio album by American rapper and record producer Tyler, the Creator. It was released on April 2, 2013, by Odd Future Records. Tyler Gregory Okonma was born on March 6, 1991, in Hawthorne, California
