Despite his comments on "See You Again," Tyler hasn't spoken as positively about some of his other previous work. During a recent interview on the Rap Radar Podcast, he remarked that his debut album, Goblin, "is f*cking terrible." “It’s an energy and an aura that it has," he explained. "And hearing my wonky synths, and gross drums, and me not realizing I’m yelling on every song and saying the most wild shit is what got people there. It’s not about the music. If you were there, that energy and that aura and that air just cutting through what everyone else is doing is so important.”

He did admit that there are several songs on the album he still likes. “It’s still some ones on there," he said. "I still think, ‘Yonkers,’ is awesome. ‘She’ is awesome. The first two versions of ‘Nightmare’ is ill, ‘Tron Cat’ is still awesome. ‘Analog’ is still cool, like there’s still a few things on there but people don’t know like, a lot of songs on that album were just like, random songs I recorded after Goblin that we kinda just, yeah here I got these songs.”
