AceShowbiz - Tyler, The Creator and Kanye West are two influential figures in the hip-hop industry who have expressed admiration for each other's work over the years. Tyler has frequently cited West as a significant musical influence. However, despite their collaborations, Tyler is known for speaking candidly when he has an issue, as he recently did with West's performance.
During a recent concert in Korea, West performed "On Sight", but Tyler found the performance uninspiring. He commented on West's Instagram page, "N***a u was right there. Just say the words!!!" While Tyler used playful heart eye emojis, his point was clear: he felt West was being lazy on stage.
Despite their differences, Tyler has also publicly defended West. In response to speculation that his song "Stuntman" was a diss towards West, Tyler clarified during an interview that it was not. He stated, "I love that n***a. And that is not about him. It's actually about the rest of the world."
Reciprocating the positive energy, West has praised Tyler's fashion sense and described him as an "artist, innovator, and a good mentor." Despite their evolving personalities, their mutual admiration appears to have endured.
Despite their occasional disagreements, Tyler, The Creator and Kanye West share a long history of collaboration and remain influential figures in the music industry. Their relationship is a testament to the complex and nuanced dynamics that can exist between artists.
