Anyone hoping Tyler The Creator is about to release a full jazz album may want to lower their expectations. The Odd Future founder has long incorporated jazz elements into both his music and production style. No matter which creative direction he chooses for a project, traces of jazz can be heard throughout much of his discography. Because of that, many fans have spent years wondering what it would sound like if he fully embraced the genre for an entire album.
Recent hints have sparked speculation that new music could be on the horizon. However, when an Instagram account suggested that a "new era" was approaching and claimed Tyler would dive further into his jazz influences, the rapper quickly dismissed the rumor. "not at all lol and do not get stuck on this idea please," he responded.
One reason fans began theorizing about a possible new project was a subtle update to Tyler's Instagram bio. According to Complex, the bio now says, "Satchmo, Sag Harbor," a phrase that appears to reference Louis Armstrong's famous nickname, Satchmo, as well as Sag Harbor, New York, a village known for serving as a refuge for Black families during the Jim Crow era.
While there is still no confirmation that Tyler will release new music this year, fans can look forward to the return of Camp Flog Gnaw. The annual festival is scheduled to take place in Los Angeles on November 14 and 15. As is tradition, the full lineup has not yet been announced, but Tyler's attention to detail and track record with the event suggest attendees will have plenty to be excited about.
We will continue sharing any developments involving Tyler The Creator as they emerge. In the meantime, fans remain hopeful that new music will eventually arrive as a follow up to Chromakopia and Don’t Tap The Glass. Check out his comments above and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
