Tyler, the Creator Is Having Fun With DJ Khaled’s ‘Mysterious Sh*t’ Comments
Written by SOURCE on June 8, 2019
It’s good to know Tyler, the Creator hasn’t lost his sense of humor.
Earlier this week, fans speculated there was some mild drama between the 28-year-old artist and DJ Khaled. The latter posted a since-deleted video in which he expressed his frustration over Father of Asahd debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 behind Tyler’s IGOR.
“Here’s the thing, I make albums so people can play it,” Khaled said. “And you actually hear it. You know, driving your car you hear another car playing it. Go to the barber shop, you hear them playing it. You know, turn the radio on, and you hear them playing it. It’s playing everywhere—it’s called great music. It’s called albums that you actually hear the songs. Not no mysterious shit, and you never hear it.”
Naturally, many believed Khaled was dismissing Tyler’s project; however, sources later told Complex that Khaled had no issue with Tyler, and that the “mysterious shit” comment was not directed at him.
Nevertheless, Tyler is clearly having fun with the situation.
On Friday, DJ Akademiks addressed the suspected drama on Instagram, asking: “Who had the better album to u?? #tylerthecreator or #djkhaled?”
Tyler hopped in the comments section with his own question: “Who tf listens to tyler the creator?” he jokingly asked.
But Tyler wasn’t done. He then shared an amusing message to everyone who had the nerve to question his relevancy, reminding them all about his sold-out Madison Square Garden show.
“His MSG show sold out but FR I never heard a Tyler song my life” he commented on a subsequent post, followed by crying laughing emojis.
