Four years ago today, Tyler, the Creator returned with his highly anticipated fourth studio album. Originally titled Scum F*ck Flower Boy, the final product arrived in a slightly more commercially friendly package as Flower Boy, and it featured artists such as Frank Ocean, A$AP Rocky, Lil Wayne, Rex Orange County, Estelle, and Jaden Smith, among others. The album was widely praised for its growth from Tyler’s original Bastard/Goblin/Wolf trilogy, and it also saw the Odd Future founder exploring his sexuality on wax for the first time.
Since its release, the album has easily become one of Tyler, the Creator’s most beloved projects, and in our interview with Wayno, the Amazon Music Connected host went as far as to call Flower Boy a certified classic.
Tyler, The Creator – Where This Flower Blooms (prod. Tyler, The Creator)
[Verse 1: Tyler the Creator]
Ayo
Let’s take it back to them days
Counting sheep on Sadie Hannah’s floor
Carpet was my baby mama
80 dollar profit from the coffee I poured
Rent-A-Center calling everyday
Nobody home, they’re knocking on the door
Now I skrrt, skrrt, skrrt, skrrt (Skrrt!)
In toys I only dreamed that I could afford
Now I roll through Okaga
[Chorus: Frank Ocean & Tyler the Creator]
I ride to California (Yeah)
These frog oval goggles
I’m leanin’ out the window
OJ shinin’ on me (Oh, ooh)
Simp sun shinin’ on me (ayy, yeah)
Slick circles float roll
Out this world
Yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Tyler, The Creator]
Run it, run it, run it, run it
I rock, I roll, I bloom, I grow (I glow)
I rock, I roll (What you say?), I bloom, I grow (I glow)
I rock, I roll (Let ’em know), I bloom, I grow (I glow)
I rock, I roll (One more time), I bloom, I grow
(Let’s go!)
[Verse 2: Tyler, The Creator]
Ain’t nobody fucking with T, but that just may be my ego
But don’t be too cool, you might freeze
Because niggas get stuck in the cold (Man, look at this ice)
Shit weighs a ton
Water your garden, my nigga (Stunt on these niggas!)
Tell these black kids they could be who they are
Dye your hair blue, shit, I’ll do it too (What the fuck?)
Look, I smell like Chanel
I never mall grip with my manicured nails
I coconut oil the skin
I keep the top low ’cause the follicles thinnin’
But other than that, man, it feels like I’m winning (I’m winnin’, nigga)
Went from statistic to millionaire
CNN doubted ’cause my skin is dark
Then they forget when I get in my car
[Chorus: Frank Ocean]
These frog oval goggles
I’m leanin’ out the window
OJ shinin’ on me (Oh, ooh)
Simp sun shinin’ on me
Slick circles roll float
Out this world
Yeah, yeah
Run it, run it, run it, yeah
(Ohh, ohh!)
[Post-Chorus: Tyler, The Creator]
I glow (I glow)
I rock, I roll (What you say?), I bloom, I grow (I glow)
I rock, I roll (Let ’em know), I bloom, I grow (I glow)
I rock, I roll (One more time), I bloom, I—
(Let’s go!)
[Verse 3: Tyler, The Creator]
Flower boy T, nigga, that’s me
Rooted from the bottom, bloomed into a tree
Took a lil’ while, nigga makin’ leaves
Keep it in my branches so my family can eat
Favorite color green, energy is skrong
Giving niggas life, birdies and the beez
Droppin’ them seeds, not what you want
You don’t know what I keep in the trunk
[Interlude: Tyler, The Creator]
Ah, shit!
[Outro: Tyler, The Creator]
Ahh, ahh
Ahh
Run it, run it, run it, run it
Run it
Run it
Run it
