Tyler Gregory Okonma, better known as Tyler the Creator, is an American rapper and record producer recognized for his clever rap rhymes. Despite receiving controversy for his previous albums for using homophobic and sexist obscenities in his songs, the musician has had a huge effect on children born in the 2000s. He rose to prominence as a co-founder of the alternative hip hop group Odd Future.
He made a reputation for himself in the music business with his album ‘Flower Boy,’ which earned him his second Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards. At the 62nd Grammy Awards, another of his albums, ‘Igor,’ received the prize for Best Rap Album. The artist is also known for his signature tattoos, which he posts on Instagram, as he has the name of each record inked on his body. In this piece, we’ll look at Tyler’s numerous inks.
