Tyler, The Creator Sends Love To NBA YoungBoy: “He’s A Sweetheart”

Tyler, The Creator On Having NBA YoungBoy On His Album: “Such An Interesting Person”

Tyler, The Creator recently released a new album titled ‘Call Me When You Get Lost’. The project is a follow-up to the Grammy Award-winning album IGOR. It dropped on Friday (June 25), and is widely accepted by rap fans.

Prior to the album’s release, Tyler, The Creator shared short snippets of records from the project.

“WUSYANAME” didn’t include the NBA Youngboy verse that’s now on the album version but copyright takedowns revealed that the Baton Rouge rapper appeared on the track with Ty Dolla $ign.

On Twitter, Tyler answered questions from fans regarding the album including some insight into the collab with NBA Youngboy. A fan asked how Tyler managed to secure that verse. The OF frontman didn’t provide a response for that but he did praise NBA Youngboy.

“Hes a sweet heart man, sending love to youngboy, such an interesting person,” he wrote. Tyler then added that NBA Youngboy’s verse was among the highlights on the project for him, specifically, “when nba says ‘think soooo.'”

According to HITS Daily Double, CALL ME WHEN YOU GET LOST is on track to sell over 175,000 total album-equivalent units in its first week, marking Tyler’s second No. 1 Billboard 200 album. He’s also expected to net over 180 million streams, thanks in part to his sold-out box set.
