]]>This year’s headliners all had the pleasure of performing at Coachella in the past, and they’ll finally return as the main event! Doja Cat’s performance is the freshest in our memory, since she hit the stage in 2022, and brought out several guests, including Rico Nasty and Tyga.
The rest of the lineup is equally impressive, and it includes the likes of Ice Spice, Sublime, Grimes, Lil Uzi Vert, J Balvin, Peso Pluma, Reneé Rapp, Jhené Aiko, Victoria Monét, Deftones, Bizarrap, Bleachers, Bebe Rexha, Coi Leray, and Lil Yachty.
The upcoming Coachella will also mark the long-teased reunion of the ’90s pop-rock icons No Doubt. Gwen Stefani and the rest of the band went on their second hiatus in 2015, but they’ve been teasing their reunion for a while—and they finally made things official!
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will return to the desert over two weekends this spring, and it’s set to take place from April 12-14 and April 19-21.

]]>The post Tyler, The Creator Speaks Against Posthumous Music Releases appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>Tyler, The Creator shared his feelings about posthumous albums during a recent intimate show in Los Angeles before playing the unreleased song “Penny”. He explained he’d rather share his unreleased music now than have it released posthumously when he has no control over it.
“Some of these are so good I can’t just let them sit on my hard drive. Because I have in my will that if I die, they can’t put no fucking [posthumous] album out,” he explained.
Tyler, The Creator also called posthumous albums “gross” because they consist of half-baked ideas and random features with artists that he most likely wasn’t even on good terms with.
The Grammy-winning rapper isn’t the first artist to speak against posthumous releases of his music. Anderson .Paak famously got the tattoo that reads, “When I’m gone, please don’t release any posthumous albums or songs with my name attached. Those were just demos and never intended to be heard by the public” in 2021, and Lana Del Rey echoed his sentiment a few days later on Instagram.

]]>The post Best New Songs of the Week appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>March 31 marked the release of some of the most anticipated albums of the whole month, including Chlöe’s debut solo LP In Pieces and Melanie Martinez’s concept album Portals. Both albums gave us about a dozen amazing new tracks, and we made sure to include them on our list.
If we had to pick our favorite new album of the week, Boygenius would take the cake. Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus finally shared their first joint album with the world and promoted its release with the short film “The Film”, which included three songs from this record.
Tyler, the Creator also surprised us with a new edition of his last album titled Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale, which features several new songs, including “Sorry Not Sorry”.
This week has also been great for fans of hip-hop, K-pop, and Latin music, with Quavo, Becky G, and Blackpink’s Jisooo making it to our list.

]]>Tyler, The Creator took to Twitter to announce the exciting news, revealing he’ll share some unreleased music with the world as a part of the expanded edition Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale, set to come out on March 31.
“Call Me If You Get Lost was the first album I made with a lot of songs that didn’t make the final cut. Some of those songs I really love, and knew they would never see the light of day, so I’ve decided to put a few of them out,” the rapper wrote on Twitter.
He gave us a taste of things to come with a new single “Dogtooth”, and shared a self-directed visual for this track. The deluxe edition of Call Me If You Get Lost is available for pre-sale, but it’s still unclear how many new songs it will feature.
Call Me If You Get Lost was released in 2021 to rave reviews, and it produced singles “Lumberjack” and “WusYaName”.

]]>The “EARFQUAKE” rapper has recently shared the entire Call Me If You Get Lost concert for free on YouTube. The hour-long video sees Tyler, the Creator, performing 15 tracks, most of which came from his new release.
He also infused the set with some older cuts, including Flower Boy’s “911” and IGOR’s “New Magic Wand.”
Check out the performance in full below.
Shortly after the video came out, it was announced that Call Me If You Get Lost reached the No.1 spot on the U.S. Billboard 200. This is the second time Tyler, the Creator topped the charts, repeating the success he had with IGOR in 2019.
The album also received widespread acclaim from critics, who praised it for its experimentation, mix of different styles, and “seamless transitions between tracks.”
Tyler, the Creator is expected to support the album with a series of solo shows, while also taking part in several festivals this summer, including Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, and Day N Vegas.

]]>The post Tyler, The Creator On Odd Future Reunion: “Everyone Is Kinda Past That” appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>Tyler spoke about an Odd Future reunion at a recent Converse’s Creative All Star series event in London, and admitted that he’s “open” to this possibility, but thinks “everyone is kinda past that.”
“Nine times out of seven, no,” said Tyler when asked whether the rap collective has new projects in place. “I would be open to it, but I think everyone is kinda past that. I think some people base it on nostalgia rather than like, ‘Would it actually be good?’ Like, we don’t always need a Bad Boys 5. Even though I like the last one.”
Odd Future stopped its activities in 2015, and since then, most of its members went on to build successful solo careers. This is one of the reasons why Tyler, The Creator thinks that the reunion might not work, although he did offer some optimism towards the end.
“I don’t know if the styles would mesh much with everyone. But, who knows, this could change in six weeks,” he added.
Formed in 2007, Odd Future saw more than a dozen members come and go, including Tyler, Hodgy Beats, Casey Veggies, Matt Martians, Earl Sweatshirt, Mike G, Frank Ocean, Syd tha Kyd, and other. The group released two mixtapes in 2008 and 2010, followed by debut studio album The OF Tape Vol. 2 in 2012.

]]>Tyler also presented a music video for “Best Interest,” which shows him riding a boat. According to the rapper, the song was part of the sessions for his fifth studio album Igor that arrived earlier this year.
“Didn’t want it to sit on a hard drive. Filmed with no music, with hopes that it would sync up, a success!” Tyler said.
Tyler, the Creator released Igor back in May, and the record was met with widespread acclaim. The album was praised for its production, lyrical content, and described as “rich and messy mélange of R&B, funk, and rap.”
Igor debuted at No.1 on US Billboard 200, becoming Tyler’s first number one album in the United States. It also received a Grammy nomination for Best Album of the Year.

]]>We’ve been singing Billie Eilish’s praise a lot recently. What’s more, Thom Yorke, Paul McCartney, Elton John, and BABYMETAL have all commented on what a great job she is doing. Now, Tyler The Creator has come out and revealed that he would love to work with her.
“That bitch is big. That n**** came from nowhere,” Tyler told Zane Lowe. “I think her album [When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?] is sick. I like her. I just want her to keep doing her goddamn thing.”
He then added: “I wanna work with her. I don’t know what the f**k we would make, even if it don’t come out, if it’s trash, I still just wanna see what we could [do together].”
Elisih has since responded to Tyler’s kind words in a soppy Instagram post. She wrote: “Lmfaoooooo I would never in a billion years have thought these words would come out of this man’s mouth. Wow. I would be nothing without you Tyler… Everyone knows it.”
So who knows? Maybe Billie Eilish x Tyler The Creator is on its way… we can only hope.

]]>What makes Tyler’s success so impressive is the fact he had tough competition on the charts. Experts didn’t really see this coming, since DJ Khaled also dropped his star-studded album Father of Asahd on May 17th.
His triumph also took people by surprise because Igor had an extremely short rollout. Instead of hyping his new record for months and dropping a couple of singles before its release, the rapper opted for a much more unconventional approach.
Ten days before his new album hit the shelves, Tyler, the Creator simply shared its title, release date, and cover art on social media. He explained his decision in an interview on Zane Lowes’ Beats 1 radio show and said he hates people who tease their new music for months.
This strategy obviously worked, since Igor became his first album to top the charts in the US.
