Unconfirmed, but I like to think the reason Cherry Bomb Tyler and IGOR don’t say anything is cause Cherry Bomb Tyler doesn’t have anything to apologize for, and IGOR is doing the adlibs:) (I LOVE to think IGOR is doing the adlibs)

Some other details: 1. Tyler killed his alter egos from newest to oldest. He first killed Igor (2019), Flower Boy (2017), Cherry Bomb (2015). Then killed Wolf (2013), Goblin (2011) and Bastard (2009), then wrapped it up with his latest album CMIYGL (2021). 2. In this video, Igor is behind the other Tylers and also the background vocals. This is reminiscent to how the Igor album was constructed - Tyler spent a lot of the time staying in the background / didn't speak as much. He let the featured artists and production shine a lot more than usual. 3. At 0:20 in this video and 1:51 in the original video, Tyler says "Not to not explore and stay the same" then the camera switches to Cherry Bomb. Cherry Bomb was the first album where he seriously "explored" and switched everything up. This did not go in his favor since Cherry Bomb is considered his worst album, but it didn't stop him from exploring with Flower Boy, Igor and CMIYGL (2 Grammys and 1 Grammy nomination).

I personally just want more Tyler projects, he definitely was right when he said he shouldn't be classified as a rapper or anything like that. ( I forget when he specifically said that I'm paraphrasing here) He is an artist more than anything, not scared about branching out and being just more of himself in each album. Here's hoping his new page is something worth remembering just as the rest have left an impression on all of us! 🎉

I think it’s kind of a cool theory that my cousin told me. She said that the audience is like all the people that come and see you before you get executed on death row. It’s like all his alter egos knew they were going to die throughout the song waiting for the Tyler without a shirt to kill them off one by one getting everything off their chest. I just hope that Tyler can explain everything in this video and exactly what he meant. This video is so amazing. I personally think this is one of the best videos for 2023 hands down. I might just be wrong about this theory but I do think it’s a cool way to interpret it.

One other thing that is quite important to note is this: At the beginning of the song, Tyler Bodelaire talks about how his chains shine brighter than a black man's plight. We know from this video that his "final form" is the shirtless tyler, no chains, no fancy clothes, no mask. Which means he stripped himself of all the things that Tyler Bodelaire blinded himself with (he blinded himself with the shiny ice), he stripped himself of any Mask (Goblin, Cherry Bomb). He keeps eye contact when talking from his heart (Flowerboy Tyler looked away from the camera); He is done beating himself up over his emotions (Bastard, Wolf). So with the next time we hear from Tyler, it will possible be the open version of Tyler, a Tyler that is honest with himself and shares his honesty with everyone. Tyler is honestly my favourite artist, together with K.

I thought it was a theatre the first few times. But look closer. It’s actually an execution booth.

I think something else people havent noticed about the video or just havent mentioned is that Tyler not only had a callback to another Tyler version before the curtains opened but foreshadowed that he was going to kill off versions of himself. The military person in the beginning is a callback to the Sam is Dead music video where he before this killed a bunch of Tyler's and by his presence is signalling a death to a version of himself and the coming of an amount of maturity and change in sound.

This video needs more appreciation it was mad good and for it to only have 700 views is wild to me

i like how shirtless tyler goes one by one through the characters but he goes backwards rather than in order of when they were "released" with the album they belong in

I don't know if it means anything but almost as the song is ending DJ drama says "a new era is upon us"

"maybe, probably, i don't know... I'm just a rock" . . . . gold

This man doesn’t miss, ever since that smiling friends video he has put out banger after banger ❤

also I think this is a turn for a more raw, more violent and angry tyler again, due to Gobin and the Bastard being left out. Like he couldn’t beat them or move past them even if he tried. Maybe that’s why he’s beaten at the end

I don't even listen to music that much but your videos still keep me intrigued, wish you best of the luck with the algorithm.

I’m so ready for the next era 🥲

I'm glad there's still people who make great content this is the first I came upon from you and I really love how you format your videos :)

Brooooo this is an amazing analysis and I missed so much even though I listened to the song so many times. Thank you! I hope you get more appreciation and views soon

well i think its a super creative way to explain how we get older and our views and morals change constantly, including our interest. each tyler is just what era of what he was into at the time. every fews years your a little different from who you were 2 years ago, but your still the same old you. no matter what, it just shows how we are constantly thinking differently and changing.

I've been obsessed with this video since it came out, amazing breakdown!

Just found your channel through this video cause I listened to that song so much bro it's so good and I loved this video you explained it the best out of everyone else I've seen

most perfect explanation of the song this man deserve a sub

One thing I see a lot of reactions gloss over is that Tyler KILLS Baudelaire. People seem very caught up on agreeing with his statements but not that his "sorry, not sorry" attitude isn't good. It's rage, it's vitriol, and you can see it in the climax. Base Tyler isn't saying 'sorry, not sorry', Buadelaire is, and Base kills him for it. (If we're to assume he kills all of them as representing a disagreement with who he was then/certain decisions he made or ways he behaved)

It's crazy to think that he admitted to cheating on girls with guys in "when I was by the lake switching tides too". But nobody talks about ir

Thank you so much for making this video, it’s really amazing and very throughout, especially from a film perspective

I’m just super surprised he kept all those clothes

Thank you for another amazing video, keep going

Came for the explanation, stayed for the content. Already love your channel dude!

Holy W, Glad I can support from when the channel is still small. Day1 FR

The thing that got me about the video was how it looks less like a human zoo or even an execution. In the past, some people would capture people of color and put them in a zoo for paying customers. There are also examples of forced gladiator-style fights to the deaths, grabbing random BIPOC folks off the street It kinda ties into Tyler's frustration with being in a public light that tries to strip him of his privacy and what makes him a person. A public light that has killed people but still cries for everything you have and more.

excellent video glad it popped up on my feed

The amount of RESPECT I have for this man. It is amazing seeing him constantly grow and change, it’s beautiful ❤

Amazing video, thanks so much rock!!

Great vid, seriously this is might be the single best song he's ever put out.

This is a great video and made me notice things and think of thing that I wouldn’t have thought of thank you

Epic video, great explanation.🔥

i love how Tyler's songs actually have a meaning and message behind it unlike other rappers jus be saying random stuff

I just discovered your channel. Love the insight and perspective. So good!!

Fantastic tyler breakdown man, definitely do more of these. Notifications on for when u do!

Very nice video, was kinda surprised to see that it didn’t get more views!

BRILLIANT VIDEO. Can easily open a dialogue to people who watch it.

much to unpack. great review rock. i would love to watch you review more of his videos! dogtooth would be my vote.

super surprised you only got 8k subs. this vid is fire

This is an absolutely phenomenal dissection to this video! You have earned a subscriber!

you're video is like the opposite of 21'st century meeems. I need your videos. that' the reason why Im subbing.

nice vid bro, keep going with the good work

great breakdown vieo, I really love this song and the points it makes. Although, on the challenge for best song title reference in a song, I'd have to give it to "I Love You, I Hate You" by Little Simz. The way she uses the title and sample throughout the song as apart of the storytelling is beyond amazing

Nice video 👌🏿

amazing video

Dude love the videos man :))

great vid

Wow bro your content is awsome

this is a fantastic video.

Dude u figure out more then me..I tried to figure out the msg but u did!! Great job!! Hope u get more subs

he gets it, this video really broke down everything that not a lot of people understood. i’ve been listening to tyler for almost 4 years, his eras have so much personality and have changed a lot. if you compare what he was like during the goblin era compared to him now it’s way different. simply because he has grew and matured as a person.

Thank you finally a breakdown with some insight. I tried to watch reactions and I couldn’t stomach one more amateur take on this masterpiece.

Absolutely spectacular performance and wow, I did not expect that ending.

LOVE THE VID

I said this was tylers geatest work when it released. All these months later and It has only gotten more cemented in my mind as the single best thing Tyler has ever made

great video, really exellent video. I would just like you to touch on the theory that the shirtless Tyler is the persona of his next album and what we know about this character for now in a shorter video. Otherwise this video earned you my subscribe

i love this

2:25 Tyler has gone on the creator lol

One of the best music videos of all time

I was just about to pause to google the curse clause when you posted it over the scene. That watchers is “ user friendly “ content creation.

you said the goblin tyler was the one in the green mask but i dont really think thats true based on context and the storyline of the wolf trilogy. i think the one in the green mask is actually bastard while the one in the blue and red jacket is goblin. goblin was a mixture of both wolf haley and ace, which was tylers self perfection fighting with his aggressive thoughts. bastard has 2 album covers which tyler himself mentioned to be 2 reflections of good and bad because of the coloring. With red representing bad and blue representing good it would make the most sense for goblin to be clearly the one wearing the representative colors because of the album sort of merging the 2 personalities

thank u

It won’t happened based off of how the music video ended but an album similarly built like Igor of just this song would be amazing. A storyline and telling of how he killed off the Tyler’s one by one and even at that the possibility of using that Tyler’s style of singing in each song describing how they were killed just sounds perfect

awesome video. I since this song came out I've waited for a breakdown video but can someone explain to me what did the guy with the beard represent ?

Genius

As a rock fan and a rap fan this kind of reminds me of David Bowie This whole idea of building and alter ego for each musical phase and what do they mean for the artist

thanks rock

I thought of a few thing while watching this 1. The shirtless Tyler is the base tyler and he wants to kill all his past “personas” if that’s the right word, and wants to continue or “start” on a new slate, like a new identity now 2. The base tyler isn’t actually base tyler and actually a new Tyler or it is a base tyler and maybe (if he makes another album, he could do a coryxkenshin and be gone for longer than he said, who knows) he’s gonna make an album without no “persona” and being genuinely him. 3. He wants to end the story there, he wants to end it like a musical, and he doesn’t want no happy ending, he just wants to stop it there, but knowing him, this might not be as likely If you have any other theories, put them in the reply section, i would love to hear other people’s thoughts and I love talking to people about theories so yeah, have a good day and I wish you all the best.

I believe that the people aren’t walking into a theater but an execution viewing

this video is fucking awesome

The audience are represent the people in his life his mom, his friends and love interests his ancestors, fans, and the media.

that buckle flash is done in post my guy - its easy to tell

I've seen lots of different reasons as to the order of his alums being killed. It could be newest to oldest but I've seen other interesting ones like least to most prideful or which albums changed him the most. I think it could be a combination of all of these or maybe its something none of us can ever know and we just have to wait.

Nobody doing it like Tyler bro

Tyler need to direct for the MCU

I love this but I wish you brought up the ego, how his more ego filled parts speak up like how boudalare is his highest ego and then goblin, the stuck up "bastard" and it corelates to the verses and how many there are for each ego

Also when he says fuck ‘‘em at the end it’s a reference to Earl sweatshirt pre

tyler tha goat frfr

I think this is the finale of Tyler’s alto egos. Like in Sam is dead, the three characters ace, tron cat and I believe “Sam??” Correct me if I’m wrong. Never ever are mentioned or brought back by Tyler . When they are killed they are killed. Tyler also mentioned that he had considered dropping his stage name “Tyler the creator” for his real name. The way I see it , he won’t create anymore alter egos but instead claim the feelings or the character of his next albums as his true self. For me this sucks azzzzz. The alter egos expressions were so cool and I don’t want them gone :(.

Tylers’ the creators

I think shirtless tyler is tyler himself

probably a self titled album where hes himself and not other characters just him

In the beggining when everyone is walkingin , there is a handshake with someone in a green shirt that we dont see again anywhere else in the video. Green shirt person when in the theatre but was the only one who wasnt shown during the sorry audience sequences. Anyone think it could be a hint?

You should talk about the earfquake music video by Tyler the creator

It would be cool if we got a DR. TC cameo in the near future

I didn't even notice that IGOR was in the video

Isn't Ace the one in the mask aka bastard Tyler and the one moving around in the back is goblin? (the one near wolf)

having autism, i've always had a problem with saying sorry when i didnt mean it (99% of the time) this song helped me for sure

to me, i see that as baudelaire is killed last its tyler going and killing all his egos he has faced in the past and baudelaire is seen as the biggest ego from the other tylers in the video

I hope you se this comment, because it’s (kinda) clear what the song means- if you buy the song and not stream/watch it on KZfaq, instead of the estate sale at the end, Tyler states “A new era is upon us”

i had to pause for a second to laugh when you said "tylers the creators" 😭😭

ALSO THE SMALL DETAIL WHERE BAUDELAIRE DIES ON THE 7TH PUNCH AND THERE ARE 7 VERSIONS OF TYLER IN THE VIDEO

This music video really reminds me of the sam(is dead) video where he is killing off his alter egos he just has more to get rid of this time LOLL

I think that the shirtless tyler is the next version of him, slowly removing his past versions; moving on. The second to last line he says "I gurantee another era is upon us"

W vid

Tyler is the best artist of this generation (besides Ye and Kdot ofc)

My goal is to have my thing rose as hard as Tyler’s was in this video one day. Definitely a dope song tho
