Tyler the Creator came to Gila River Arena on Oct. 20th to perform his new album IGOR. I was there in attendance as I am a huge fan of Tyler the Creator. I must say that I had such a blast at this concert as Tyler is such a great performer. The man has so much energy on stage as he was running all around the stage being chaotic and unpredictable which I love. One thing that is for certain is that the man is weird. He probably said whoop like 100 times but he was still able to make it sound so angelic and beautiful. One of my favorite parts of the concert was that he played songs from all of his previous albums as well as his new album. Examples are She feat. Frank Ocean, 911/Mr.Lonely feat. A$AP Rocky, and Yonkers. I have been listening to Tyler ever since he was apart of Odd Future and Loiter Squad so I was thrilled to hear that he still performs his old music as well as he did when the songs first came out. I would rate this concert a 9/10 due to the fact that he was so electric and the visuals were attention-grabbing as if he was telling a story throughout his concert.
I did not have the best seats in the building as I was unable to get general admission tickets. However, the visuals and camera angles made me feel as if I was right up front listening to him sing. I never felt out of place or too far away from the stage as the visuals helped me stay a part of the entire experience. Of course, what topped it all off was the whig as they were handing out whigs at the gate so that everyone felt like Tyler! I definitely recommend going to his concert even if you're only a fan of Tyler's new music because he is great at mixing up his performance so that you get a wide variety of his type of music.
