Considering he gave, what, a week\u2019s notice after teasing the album for a bit? I\u2019d say every fan of his completely lost their mind at the announcement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCall Me If You Get Lost,\u201d Tyler\u2019s sixth album, brings energy right from the opening track. With almost every song flowing right into the next, it\u2019s definitely an album best listened to in order instead of hitting shuffle. Personally, I prefer albums that are presented this way as they\u2019re more interesting to the ear and have more of a story to tell.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each song is relatively short (another personal preference of mine), so I found the album as a whole to be easily digestible upon a first listen. What really had me taken aback, and what\u2019s adamantly clear from this album, is Tyler\u2019s versatility as an artist. I still remember watching the music video for Yonkers for the first time in middle school, sitting and thinking about how dark the music and lyrics are. Now here we are 10 years later with a succession of albums that spew creativity, musicality, and plain old fun.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What I find especially impressive about \u201cCALL ME IF YOU GET LOST\u201d is the sheer number of collaborators Tyler decided to feature. Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Wayne, and even Frank Ocean are only a few of the names that make an appearance throughout the album. Each collaborator is perfectly placed on their respective track and it makes for interesting twists and turns during the album\u2019s nearly hour-long length.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCall Me If You Get Lost\u201d strays from the path laid by its 2019 predecessor, \u201cIGOR\u201d. While \u201cIgor\u201d was more experimental in its sound, \u201cCall Me If You Get Lost\u201d features a more interesting set of vocals and definitely requires multiple listens if you want to dig deep into meaning. Tyler, The Creator is one of those artists that ages like fine wine. Each album of his brings something different to the table and I think \u201cCall Me If You Get Lost\u201d is a real winner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Three Standout Tracks: &#8220;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CORSO,&#8221; &#8220;RUNITUP,&#8221; and &#8220;SWEET\/I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Overall Rating: 8.3\/10<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1370\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?resize=664%2C664&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"664\" height=\"664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?w=980&amp;ssl=1 980w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?resize=666%2C666&amp;ssl=1 666w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hannahandmattonmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Call-me.jpeg?resize=90%2C90&amp;ssl=1 90w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Matt\u2019s Take: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tyler, the Creator is undoubtedly one of the most talented hip-hop artists working today, as well as one of my favorite modern personalities overall. To say that this album was highly hyped on my part would be an understatement. After listening to it, I have to say that the most interesting aspect of the album is hearing the growth that Tyler has gone through as an artist over the past few years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The jazz and soul influences show just how ambitious as Tyler has come not just as a rapper, but as an artist with maximalist tendencies. His work shows him to be a jack of all trades: an edgy comedian, a brutal lyricist, an emotional singer, and an all-around fearless artist. This album is a perfect culmination of everything Tyler has worked towards in his career, and it is a very digestible album for fans and newcomers alike.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I don\u2019t really know what to say about this album other than it is certainly a treat for all music fans, especially in a time of weak output, and that it deserves to be on everyone\u2019s listen list. It is truly an album of the summer, and one of the best of the year!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Three Standout Tracks: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCorso,\u201d \u201cWUSYANAME,\u201d and \u201c&#8221;Sweet \/ I Thought You Wanted to Dance.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Overall Score: 8.8\/10<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hannah&#8217;s Take: I was pleasantly surprised when I heard Tyler, the Creator would be dropping a new album.
