Tyler Gregory Okonma, known professionally as Tyler, The Creator, is an American musician whose creative force has made him one of the defining voices of his generation. Born on March 6, 1991, in Ladera Heights, California, Tyler's early recognition came as the co-founder of the alternative hip hop collective Odd Future in the late 2000s. But it was his subsequent solo work that propelled him to stardom. His fearless approach to artistry, characterized by a blend of rap, R&B, funk, and other genres, alongside thought-provoking, often controversial, lyrics, has earned him critical and commercial success.

Tyler, The Creator's discography is marked by a series of ambitious and idiosyncratic albums, each showcasing his growth as a musician and his willingness to push boundaries. "IGOR," released in 2019, marked a significant milestone in his career, debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200 and earning him a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. Following up with the eclectic and introspective "CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST" in 2021, Tyler continued his hot streak, earning acclaim for the album's lyrical depth and sonic diversity. His versatility is also evident in commercial projects like the original piece "Tell Me How" for a Coca-Cola advertisement and remixing La Roux's "Automatic Driver." His artistic evolution and impact on modern music make Tyler, The Creator a pivotal figure in contemporary culture.
