Tyler, the Creator catches the spirit on his remix to “Kids See Ghosts,” the title track off Kanye West and Kid Cudi’s joint album.
Titled “Crust in Their Eyes,” the newly-released version finds the Odd Future frontman rapping about family (“My sister called the other day / And said she loved me wassup? / I called her back and said I’m sorry that I don’t say it enough”), his sexuality (“Pro black but this twink white”), and being “woke” (“Ni**as swear they woke, but got crust in their eyes”).
The remix was recorded shortly after Kanye and Cudi dropped their album last week. “ye sent me that beat same night i also think his original verse on it is soooooooo fucking good,” said Tyler. “i love his pocket on it and mighty mos sounds great on it ecstatic is a flawless album.”
Earlier this month, Tyler officially released his song “435,” which was preceded by “OKRA.” He will host his 2018 Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival on Nov. 10-11 at Dodger Stadium. Pre-sale tickets are already sold out.
