An in-depth exploration of the musical work of Tyler, The Creator as a watershed in American hip-hop culture, this book considers the audiovisual work of Tyler through close analyses of his music videos, lyrics and performances as a rapper, music producer and music video director.
The book examines Tyler through thoughtful discussions on race and racism, calling on the work of Frantz Fanon, and music videos such as “Yonkers”, “Buffalo” and “Find Your Wings,” as well as the author's ethnographical work in Los Angeles. Featuring an interview with Luis “Panch” Perez; Director of Photography for Tyler's music videos, Tyler the Creator's Remaking of Hip Hop is a fascinating look at the productions of one of the most intricate rappers in the current music industry.
