Add a CommentMy opinion on IGOR, I believe that Tyler showcases a more polished iteration of the hazy pop he’s been perfecting for years. Even though some might be disappointed that he’s becoming more of a singer than a rapper; I'm not, this project should encourage more artists to disavow labels and relish in taking risks.

Igor is Tyler, The Creator’s fifth album which was released on May 17th, 2019. This album was completely written and produced by himself, which is very impressive. He also featured other famous artists like Kanye West, Solange, Playboi Carti and Lil Uzi Vert. This album received a great positive reaction. Tyler, The Creator received a Grammy win for Best Rap/Hip Hop album which was very well deserved. The best tracks on this album are I Think, Running Out Of Time, A Boy is a Gun, Puppet and Are We Still Friends. It is very difficult to pick one best song since the album is so good. The best aspect of the album is production. All of these songs transition very beautifully. Another amazing aspect of this album is the delivery of the lyrics. The lyrics not only are emotional but we can also hear it in his voice. I recommended this album to anyone that loves music that just sounds beautiful and clean. 5/5 stars

My opinion on IGOR, I believe that Tyler showcases a more polished iteration of the hazy pop he’s been perfecting for years. Even though some might be disappointed that he’s becoming more of a singer than a rapper; I'm not, this project should encourage more artists to disavow labels and relish in taking risks. My favorite song of the album is “EARFQUAKE”, it showcases a wide range of vocals from Tyler and also features Playboi Carti. Carti has not released music since 2018, so when fans like me heard a newer version of him we instantly considered this song a favorite. Tyler’s part on this song is melodically sung and is the “catchy” part of the song. I would not recommend this album to someone who is new to rap because of at the abstract beats, it simply is too much to handle for someone who doesn’t listen to rap in the first place. however, if someone has been listening to rap for a while and wants to listen to a more complex album, I would definitely recommend IGOR. Final rating: 3.5/5

IGOR is the fifth studio album by American rapper Tyler, The Creator released on May 17, 2019. You can find it off of Freegal. I would rate it 5/5. IGOR is based off of Igor - the vibrant fictional character Tyler created and portrays in his animated concerts. The album is immaculately arranged by Tyler – each song blends into the next which gives listeners a flawless auditory experience. IGOR is experimentally different than Tyler’s previous albums, but he does not disappoint. In fact, melodic runs and harmonies accompanied by Tyler’s superb bars make this undoubtably one of his best albums. The hit single “EARFQUAKE” featuring the trendy verse by Playboi Carti was a breakthrough hit that allowed Tyler to enjoy worldwide success and even secured him a Grammy! There is absolutely nothing I would change about this extraordinary album and I hope to see other artists take this experimental approach to their albums as it worked out so well for Tyler. Listeners that enjoy alternative hip hop and artists such as Frank Ocean and Earl Sweatshirt would love IGOR. It’s the type of album you can listen to by yourself but also when driving or hanging out with friends. In my opinion, IGOR is the best album of 2019 and I hope to see more like it in the future
