Tyler, The Creator's CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST just made history. Of course, the Hawthorne, Los Angeles native is one to consistently push the envelope in popular music and change the metrics of success to fit his creativity. Moreover, according to ChartData, T is the first-ever artist to have a No. 1 album on the Top R&B and Hip-Hop Albums chart in three different (and consecutive) years. Furthermore, CMIYGL went No. 1 in 2021, 2022, and 2023 on said Billboard chart. With its recent expansion, The Estate Sale, Tyler's victory lap continued to get him remarkable recognition.

What's more is that the 32-year-old also saw huge success in the physical market. Furthermore, CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST is the best-selling hip-hop vinyl album worldwide in 2022. For those interested in some Tyler, The Creator records on wax, you likely also saw the Wolf ten-year anniversary boxset, which comes with instrumentals and a booklet presumably containing a screenplay. While it's not on sale anymore, the "WHAT A DAY" MC spoke in the past of how he appreciates fans of his physical releases.

Tyler, The Creator's CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST Continued Making History

Still, the artist sometimes known as Wolf Haley has fans speculating on when we'll hear a new project of fully new material. Given his consistent and relatively unwavering release schedule of dropping every two calendar cycles on odd-numbered years since 2009, many wonder whether that new album will come this year. However, given his incredible success, it would be understandable if he decides to really switch things up. Fans will have to wait and see. The Estate Sale's release also proved his tendency to announce and drop within a very short timespan.

Meanwhile, he recently appeared on RapCaviar Presents, the new series on Hulu. During his episode, he spoke on why he loves being a rapper. "We’re good with words," Tyler expressed. "We’re good with rhythm. We know pockets. We hear a collection of sounds and one thing and say, ‘Ahh, I know what could go over this.’ That takes a skill."
