@@JacobSoucy they’re a band, pretty much one of the forefathers of post-rock. Idk what the reference is about, but some of their music has that hypnotic, entrancing effect, so maybe they were just referencing another artist who does that with their instrumentals to pull you deeper into the story (lyrically and musically)??? And/or maybe it sounds like something Slint have done?
Idk, that’s just pure speculation on my part. Tbh I’ve not listened to the track, or the album yet, *and I stress yet,* so I don’t have a basis for comparison… I’m so behind on music this year..
Same literally zone out when I was listening to the movie
Agree heavily. Tyler knows it’s probably the only format he can get people to listen closely to every word he says for 9 minutes straight. Story was relatable, emotional, and tied into the rest of the album perfectly. Didn’t even notice the static until Ruinthany Songtano brought it up because I was so caught up in the lyrics. Thanks a lot melon 🙄
Tyler: Tells a beautiful and heart-wrenching story about unrequited love, laying bare his true feelings, and putting the whole album into perspective by revealing that all of his flexing and bragging and game-spitting was the product of him being hopelessly in love with another man’s woman.

Y'all saying "saying x" is a comment to me, continue doing this
With this album Tyler has accomplished one of the greatest three album runs of all time. Not only did he put out three amazing albums, but they were all very different from each other, while also being focused and reflective of his mental state and life experiences. He didn't just put out 3 great albums, but creatively expressed himself in a way that was experimental and unique while still being genuine and not feeling like he was pushing boundaries just to push them. Tyler was able to genuinely express himself while expanding the boundaries of hiphop and making BANGERS!
They're all different but they all fit into his musical theme. It's honestly amazing how sonically all of his works are similar but he finds new ways to tweak it
well said
Kanye West has the greatest 3 album run of hip hop. Period
Sound & stuff I think Kanye’s tied with OutKast for the only 5 album runs in hiphop but I think there have def been better three album runs than Kanye’s. Like Kendrick from section 8.0 to TPAB
@@2012scienceproject section. 80 is not in the same league as the college dropout, LR or even graduation
Sorry Mellon you’re too late I’ve already given it a 10/10
I’m gonna bet the reason he doesn’t like wilshire is because of whatever’s going on with the right ear
THANK YOU I HAVEN’T SEEN ANYONE ELSE TALKING ABOUT THIS IT’S BEEN SO ANNOYING
i loved the song and i still havent really noticed
Tyler said he recorded it on a shitty hand held mic in two takes, probably moved his hand to the left of his mouth lmao
yeah it kinda annoyed me i’m glad someone else noticed it
yep
I quite liked Wilshire, The way the mixing was done gave me a feel of him explaining it while on the phone. Whilst I understand that it can feel tiring because of the length of the track, I still didn't have much issue with it myself
the problem i have with wiltshire isn’t necessary its length, (like sweet/i thought you wanted to dance is one of my favorites,) but more the fact that it had the same beat for 9 minutes straight and it just gets dry for me
@@camerondoyle29 It honestly gets better and more listenable the more time goes on
I thought it was one of the best tracks of the album as well
1. Why did he pronounce Wil-SHIRE like that? It's Wilshire Blvd... the street he drove down while he was taking the heartbreak in he speaks of on the track.
2. Wilshire IS THE HEART OF THE ALBUM. This heartbreak is the emotional backbone of the whole story -- he drops more context and pieces of the story throughout the album all culminating into wilshire. He did the whole song in like two takes on a shitty reference mic. It's supposed to sound gritty - its like raw sadness. DAMN TONY.
Bro you are getting way too offended over a song that just sounds badly mixed lmfao, that's not called "intentionally gritty", that's called "Tyler literally admitted that the song sounds kind of fucked because he did it in 2 takes on a handheld mic and says it could have been done better". Yeah, it's the heart of the album, and it's pretty well written, but at 8 minutes, with a flawed beat that LOOPS including the flaws, it's pretty damn hard for some people to listen to or care about unless they're heavily invested in the album or Tyler himself.
I give this comment a NOT GOOD
@@txrracxtta Bars
Too bad wilshire is long as hell and kinda boring. Really could've made it more concise without sacrificing the message or the point. With how drawn-out it is I feel like wilshire sorta drags the album down. And I really love the rest of it
Tbh I have a love/hate relationship with this song because it kinda makes me dislike Tyler because of the whole home wrecking aspect of it but I do also love the story telling by Tyler in the song and think if I didn’t have a problem with the message in the song I’d love the track, but that’s just my opinion 🤷🏼♂️
@@ajthemc8682 yeah, the homewrecking aspect of it put me off significantly. It's more personal than "gonna steal yo girl" type songs, but still not a cool vibe
You can’t deduct 2 points just because he didn’t name the song MELONHEAD
LMFAO!!! man that was perfect
Throughout Tyler’s 3 recent albums he evolved like a Pokémon as an artist.
@@sorrowfgc obligitory "no" reply
He evolved like the king of your old national daddy so I guess that’s what I think like he does that because don’t think east of people need it on the center.
It stared at cherry bomb the one everyone hated lmaooo I liked it
@@erronking7783 it’s still his worst album though. There’s only a couple songs from cherry bomb I still like
i think flower boy better than igor
I hate how quickly Fantano dismisses Wilshire. It’s one of his best songs he’s ever done. 8 minutes or straight raps about a very complex and intimate moment. I felt like I was there and experienced it all with the way he wrote it. It’s an achievement for Tyler. I listed on my AT studio headphones and the mix didn’t bother me one bit. It’s a little funky but keeps it from getting too monotonous. Certain double track words pop in the left channel and keep you engaged to the words. The separation of audio stops you from just losing his voice as background audio in this 8 minute song. I think it’s much much better than he’s giving credit for. I was floored when I heard this. This is like his “Sing About Me, Dying of Thirst.”
Seriously. It’s my favorite song from Tyler
MASSA and WILSHIRE are Magnum Opus in his discography. They arent my personal favourites but those two songs and RUNITUP are probably top 10 tyler
bro NOO its NOTT his sing about me dying of thirst lmfaoo shit had one purpose and concept it wasnt layered and soul touching like sing about me dont u ever put that in the same sentence wtf!?? 😂😂😂😂😂
Anthony…saying “yb did it better” for 12 minutes is not a review.
lol
Anthony you can’t just give CMIYGL a 2 because you think he was talking abt your gf on wilshire
Finally a funny comment
Wait, it all makes sense now…
Why do people make these types of comments , no hate I find them funny. But where did the joke come from / what’s the joke ?
@@TheEndermanSlayer100 from the livestream of his first reaction I believe
Melon is married 😳😳😳 tyler rly is a homewrecker
I really think the technical issues kept Anthony from seeing Wilshire for what it really was: the key to understanding the rest of the album. IMO it re-contextualizes the braggadocio and jet setting to be less about Tyler showing off and more about Tyler recovering his self-worth after being rejected. Shit, he even brings along a dedicated hypeman. It's pure escapism.
stretch
I felt the same way about the content but at the end of the day, this is music The fact that the mix is almost unbearable for the entire 8+ minute runtime cant be overlooked just for the content it holds I agree that it is the centerpiece to understanding the album as a whole, but that doesnt mean the song didnt need to be crafted well If it was refined better it would have been a lot better That being said I dont think it would have been a high point of the project It was necessary to understanding the concept but it would have been a lot more interesting if it was consolidated and a condensed a little better
this is a fantastic take. the crushing of his emotions lead to him needing some sort of mood boost.
True
Maybe the reason the mix is so rough is because it reflects his mental state at the time, doesn't make the shit unbearable to me, I can still be immersed in Tyler's storytelling
anthony, calling tyler for 12 minutes trying to tell him you’re lost is not a review
Melon I think your initial review of lumberjack and your dislike of Wilshire is holding you back from seeing cmiygl as anything more than a vanity project. Songs like corso sweet/thought you wanted to dance and wilshire show that while tyler does have a lot to brag about he has a history of missing out on love interests in spite of his fame and popularity.
Doesn't change the fact that the bragging is just not enjoyable
@@fclp67 it isn't the entire theme of the project. Bragging is deserved especially at this point in his career. Everyone has their braggadocios moments even Kendrick Lamar that Anthony praises so much.
This, literally this! His critique of Wilshire rubbed me the wrong way, commenting that it could’ve used some transitions to better move the lyrics or pace along the track. However, I’d argue that Tyler has very clearly shown his ability to develop a music motif and transition throughout the album almost seamlessly at times, I’m willing to bet that Tyler’s choice of instrumental was intentional. Wilshire was very obviously a direct attempt at strictly being a story telling song.
@@fclp67 clearly it is for melon cause he gave this vanity project an 8
The fact that you didn’t list “creator” as one of his titles makes me mad
tyler the do-er of things
Exactly
Fantano doesn't like "Wilshire" because he scared of human emotion
I have no idea why he doesn’t like it. Best song Tyler’s ever made
@@Cheaplinx It’s obviously because the song is about his girlfriend.
kind of torn on it. ASS mix and the instrumental is so below his abilities, but the story and lyricism is top notch, so i don't know.
@@saintonsaturn7070 I think the instrumental is less grand because he wants the lyrics to shine through more
@@seansean3659 Fr. I’ve listened to colossus 1000 times and know all the lyrics but i barely know what the instrumental sounds like off of my memory. It’s just such a lyrical song idk
Let’s be honest: you may agree, you may disagree, but EVERYONE expected this score.
oh yeah? haven't seen the video yet, but im expecting a "solid 6 to 7"
@@JioLLLL same, Didn't like the album as much as Igor, the beats feel a bit generic to me overall while Igor or even Flowerboy felt more like a real adventure, but that's just my opinion
@@finnlahoye9209 it's a more raw album than the other two. Tyler chose to forgo his talent making pop music with this one. Definitely more nostalgic and sometimes trendy production, but I think this is the best rapping he has ever done
@@Firenmage433 Agreed, Wilshire has some of the best damn flow I’ve ever heard.
Was hoping Melonhead would give this at least a 9 but this is Tyler’s best work yet. From the arrangement of his features in each song, the intricate and nostalgic production and overall creative storytelling. With more plays, this album is sure to be a timeless set of tracks with compelling writing to depict each of the scenarios Tyler is in. Plus, DJ Drama is honestly such a fantastic hypeman and adds so much depth to each track.
Bro, I cannot agree more. It's been more than a month already and this album should've at least got a strong 9 to a 10
how do you view it now ?
Bruh not enough impact like igor
Tyler’s run has been unprecedented. He will go down as one of the greatest artists of all time. Now I’m just waiting for Melon to review The Sober Tape and I’m good 👌🏿😎

fire
Wilshire is a good track but he's right, the minute by minute detail gets dragged and the static in the right ear distracts from the song.
Cmon man, you know he couldve been more creative with the production part
So I’m in no way an expert on Tyler’s music. Been listening to him on and off for years, but idk. This album is special. Like really. And I think your review was great and agree with a lot of it, but my main disagreement I have with how you viewed it is I think the woman that he refers to is the main subject of the whole work. His vanity and description of his life and success is just the backdrop. It’s used to highlight how crazy it is that even though he still has everything, he still wants her more than anything, the one thing he can’t have. It’s sad, but also happy, he’s moving on and reflecting about her, but focusing on his accomplishments and happiness and fame while still having her in the back of his mind and on the surface. I think his relationship to her ties the whole album together. I don’t know honestly how it stacks up to his other works. Don’t know if I can really compare them, but I have this album on constant repeat. 10/10 hands down
well said
I agree with everything you are saying. That reason shows why Wiltshire was actually a important point in the album. I think fantano didn’t appreciate it in the context of the album but as a stand alone song which you can’t do. It perfectly ties the gf being the most important thing to Tyler even though in the beginning he only is flexing. Towards sweet he starts getting into what really matters, which is his love interest
I agree I feel like the storytelling on this album is like on cherrybomb where it’s not the main subject like it is on Igor
This album is trash. Shit beats with shit lyrics and annoying screams. Tyler thinks anything he does is amazing now cuz of fanboys who slobber on his nob. Bring back Wolf Tyler.

Unfunny as hell
What even is this joke what is Fantano’s comment section turning into
stale
Tyler literally tweeted out his phone number Imao
“Least favorite track: WILSHIRE” is the kind of stuff that puts you on the path to Hell Fantono
whats worse lmao
I mean he's not wrong, it's too long especially with hearing that crackling for 8 straight minutes
the instrumental could've changed up a bit and there's a bit of clipping in the right ear. it's one of my favs but i totally get why melon wasn't a fan
It’s boring, I just want a random sax solo to come out of nowhere and a big gospel chorus with big 808 and Tyler moaning
@@ohwellhaha4944 he is wrong tbh
Wilshire was beautiful. Can’t say why but it resonated with me so strongly from the first time I heard it. I love the candidness of it and it feels so deeply personal and real. I also think it brings the whole album together with this idea of Tyler having so much success yet not getting the thing he wants most.
this album will age like fine wine
already is ageing nicely, I can tell it will only do so further
it will be a classic just like igor and flower boy will
Fantano called this a "vanity album" and I suppose it is at some points, but I honestly feel Fantano missed one of Tyler's big points of "I have all these amazing things, yet I don't have the one girl I love." Tyler ending up the loser of a love triangle (yet again) counter acts all his bragging earlier on in the record and really ties up the album thematically. Sure money and fame is nice, but it's not enought to make up for a lack of love. I just think Fantano's lack of interest in Wilshire was what kept him from giving the album a 9, which is how I'd have ranked it were I the bald one in front of a camera
You’re absolutely right that Fantano didn’t really dig hard enough with this album, especially with all the vanity stuff. Wilshire is definitely the centerpiece of the album and contextualizes the whole thing.
Exactly, there's no reason to underestimate how conceptual Tyler is at this point in his career. This album may not have a clear narrative but there is an overall progression and message. The whole song Sweet/I Thought You Wanted to Dance is a love two part ballad which changes at the end when he reveals he was just being led on. As well as all the references to the one missing thing in his life (the girl) littered throughout the album. It's more than just braggadocio rap.
@@philbup281 idk how much there was to dig though. We got like 3 songs about him and that girl. Like this wasn't Igor part 2. To be honest my favorite parts were when he talked about that stuff instead of his double r's and McLarens. But we got so little of it it just seemed misplaced... like there were two distinct ideas going on at the same time in the album. Tyler jet setting and going off and him dealing with the aftermath of his love triangle relationship. Personally I wanted more like wasyaname but the other stuff is cool too.
This
It’s a lame concept, and a confusing one as well
this is easily one of tyler’s albums of all time
Phew, I was so worried it wouldn’t be , imagine if it wasn’t one of Tyler’s albums of all time, I mean, that would just be weird
Trueee, it's one of the most Albums of all time for Tyler
For sure one of Tyler’s all time albums
Definitely an all Tyler time album of.
it definitely has some of tyler's songs on it
I find the braggadocios element to the album to be a part of Tyler’s growth. He’s showing us how he now deals with emotional turmoil is a healthier (maybe not the healthiest) way. Where in Flower Boy he complained about having all these things but still being bored but here he is using these things to help him “seize the day” and live in the moment. He is happy. He is enjoying his fruits and making the most out of life in spite of this love connection gone wrong. Tyler is telling how he has grown as a person. He’s telling us he’s good. He equipped to deal with whatever comes his way. It’s a great story and it’s good to know he has matured enough to take life’s curve balls head on. It definitely adds to the album.
Wilshire is the centerpiece of the whole album. Every song points back to it. There's nothing wrong with the mix, and I'd even say the fact that the mix is different aligns with the idea behind the song: "I have all this, but I want you more". The rest of the record is well-put-together, showy, and emotionally shallow, and this song is different because it reflects how much of a mess Tyler felt like after the entanglement, and we get to see him in such greater depth. Wilshire is the reason this album was made. The rest just goes to further prove his point
the thing is, as a story, its amazing, but as a song, its the worst of the album and really drags the score down
“Hangin out poolside with a hottie all day”
I miss those days with you too Melon
Repeatedly calling random numbers saying “I’m lost” trying to find Tyler is not a review Melon.
lool i get it😂😂
This entire album was so freaking good. Hard to compare it to Igor but it's still absolutely amazing.
excellent review as always, anthony. was a little bit concerned in the middle when you momentarily forgot the track order and tried to dial tyler's birth date for help because you thought it was his phone number but i'm glad you found your footing afterwards. keep up the good work!
Anthony, saying Youngboy better for 5 minutes isn’t a review
It's not a review but it's accurate😈😈😈

Wilshire hit me hard. I personally can relate to the way Tyler is feeling and never had a song hit me like that before. I understand that you're looking at the music purely from a musical standpoint. But i was kind of wishing for more of a breakdown of Wilshire. But how much more can u break it down if it's all layed out for u.
its an effortlessly well-crafted, tastefully disconnected dream of an album. i can picture tyler answer the question "if you could do whatever you wanted with an album, what would you do?" and he just starts listing off all kinds of stuff. and then makes it happen, good and bad, high points and low.
Can’t believe you spent the whole review trying to call him
Hearing tyler’s mom do his voice felt like a hug
True. It was a breath of fresh air when listening to the album as a whole.
Here are some of my favorites from the album,
Safari- I love the flute+the beat makes it a great listen.
Mama talk+rise!- rise is a great song that gave me see you again vibes, it also pairs nicely with mama talk but it’s up to u at that point.
Juggernaut- do I need to explain?
i really appreciate Tyler's versatility. Dude does not make the same thing twice
The best part of this album for me was the direction away from Igor it took, really shows that Tyler still makes music for himself and not the critics
I love Igor but I'm glad that this album wasn't another concept album. The bangers fucking bang on this and the features are out of this world.
Everytime I hear Momma Talk, all I can imagine is Tyler's mom being a mob boss
When this album dropped at midnight me, my brother and 2 friends listened to it and one of them kept whining about how it wasn’t as good as Igor while the rest of us were just trying to enjoy it, I was pretty hooked on both the production and samples, 2 things that've consistently kept me invested in hip-hop, but overall I’d have to go in deeper to truly give a more well put together opinion on it
better than clb and donda fr
frfr
DJ Drama: Aight, where do you want me to adlib on the album?
Tyler: Yes.
Those drama features had me NOSTALGIC
Those drama features had me wanting to KMS
DJ Drama has better ad-libs than “DJ” Khaled
This comment should get pinned.
No. Just no.
@@yodihoo it was more that DJ DRAMA doesn't fit the music
@@movement6514 If you seriously think Khaled is better then you are straight up delisional
Dj drama actually produces, Dj Khaled on the other hand pays other producers to produce for him.
I feel like if this album was an essay then WILLSHIRE is the thesis. The knowledge of that situation explains the vibes / his moods in all the other tracks.
When Tyler said, "why would you have to lie? ", while backing up his mom got me.
"You have no reason to" lol
@@pvfst you're right
Melon, I don’t think it deserved a Not Good because it “didn’t have enough Bieber bussy.”
Underrated comment lmaoo
These comments are a little overdone but who cares, they still give me a good laugh. Thanks teabag
Whats bussy
Bruh why didn't mine get any likes :/
@@harryann1069 man cheeks
after listening to this album i realised dj khaled aspires to become dj drama

@@dusty125 sorry😅
Really enjoying listening to this album. My only complaints are that 1. I love Wilshere and like to sing over the beat in the car and 2. it's hard to listen to anything for a while after a Tyler record, his sound is just so unique 😊
I think the low mixed vocals worked for IGOR, feel like they should have been mixed higher on this.
@@dotcom_dotau8510 I mean what do you not understand?
@@dotcom_dotau8510 How do you know its not how to describe it if you don't know what im saying? Exposed yourself there bud... Sounds like you're choosing to be a pedantic prick to me. Also I have 12 likes, so how is it that others understand?
its pitched not mixed but i agree
I wanted to see another 10, melon
Hi Gawx :)
Me too, man, but tbh I don't see it as quite as good as Igor, still really good tho. Btw think it's sick af you're a Tyler fan, both your drawings of him have been sick😂
Nah it's not as good as Igor, but ig it's not meant to be. Still a solid 8 tho
It’s not a 10
@@govindmenon1859 seriously… I honestly find it hard to believe people like this album better than either IGOR or Flower Boy. This album’s narrative doesn’t hold a candle to any of those two albums.
I never wanna hear melon say "hanging out pool side with a Hottie all day" ever again 😂
Right, some things are only meant to be seen.
You should see his live listen to wap lol
That line made me squirm
WILSHIRE is a fucking classic already you’re tweaking
It's not a classic but it's not bad
@@cristian.f420 the mix is kinda fuzzy but damn was i hooked the entire time a great track no doubt
bad recording and the beat just goes on for too long but Tylers rapping and everything on it is solid. It makes the album whole, it just also isn't something most people will want to listen to again.
@@jonathanjohn8866 “fuzzy” yall want clean songs? Like perfect music? Do you guys know what texture is? Art?
@@carlinhostroll bruh ur talking to a deathcore fan get of ur high horse the wilshire track didnt come off as texture it came off as bad mixing to me to fantano and many others. Talking but texture stfu
You missed the point of the album if you didn't get WILSHIRE
i don’t think it’s about the meaning of wilshire, i personally find the mix of the song grating myself
even if you get the exact point of the track, the constant clipping and just general length of the track gets old
@@emilizlim1802 i respectfull disagree
it is literally the backbone of the album, it doesn’t stand as tall without it
@@peppuhroni I respectfully agree with isaac. 9 minutes of monotone rapping over a beat that doesnt change aint it.
honestly, this album is the only thing i’ve been listening to for the past 3 days.
Same and i wasnt even a tyler stan before this album dropped
SAME
