Tyler, The Creator Declares He’s ‘Really That Guy’ With Freestyle Over Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Hey Now’
Tyler, the Creator has made a bold declaration. In a recent freestyle session over Kendrick Lamar’s “Hey Now,” he confidently proclaimed himself as “really that guy.” The statement has sent shockwaves through the music community, with fans and fellow artists alike left to ponder its significance.
The context of Tyler’s statement is crucial in understanding his intentions. By choosing to freestyle over a song by one of hip-hop’s most revered figures, Kendrick Lamar, Tyler is making a deliberate choice to align himself with the Compton rapper’s legacy. “Hey Now” is a standout track from Kendrick’s critically acclaimed album ‘Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers,’ which earned widespread acclaim and several Grammy nominations.
Tyler’s bold declaration has sparked both admiration and skepticism within the hip-hop community. Some have interpreted his statement as an assertion of his own artistic superiority, potentially positioning himself as a rival to Kendrick Lamar. Others see this as Tyler paying homage to his influence, acknowledging that he is indeed “really that guy” – not just in terms of his production skills but also his ability to push boundaries and defy expectations.
It remains to be seen how the music world will react to these provocative claims. One thing is certain, though: Tyler, the Creator has once again demonstrated his unwavering commitment to creativity and self-expression.
