Tyler, The Creator responds to Taylor Swift fans bringing up his old lyrics.
Tyler, The Creator recently released his new album “Chromakopia” which is expected to debut at number 1 on the US Billboard 200 with only four days tracking. The rapper’s album also dethroned Taylor Swift from #1 position on Global Spotify top artist chart to end her 698-day run on the top.
After that, Taylor Swift fans dig up Tyler’s old offensive lyrics to try to cancel the rapper. Creator now fired shots at the Swifties during his special show on Halloween. “I got Swifties all mad at me with they racist a-s,” he said. “Bringing up old lyrics. Bi–h go listen to ‘Tron Cat.’ I don’t give a f–k, h-e. The f–k, bi–h! They gon’ bring out the old me.”

One of the lyrics from “Tron Cat” recently went viral on social media. “Ra-e a pre-nant bi–h and tell my friends I had a threesome,” he raps. The song appeared on Creator’s 2011 debut album “Goblin.”
The new album is projected to move over 250k equivalent units in the first week, and could go close to 300k. The rapper also smashed the record for the biggest debut for a rap album this year on Spotify. The new album was streamed 86 million times on the opening day on Spotify, which was the biggest for a rap project this year. This is more than double of Tyler’s previous album “Call Me If You Get Lost” which received over 41 million streams on the first day. It is now among top 10 biggest rap album debuts in Spotify history.
