you are so so right about twst skellybones and his missing teeth!!!!!! on him the gaps have the same air as like. grillz or perhaps braces. not bad, just distinctive :]
[referring to this post]
YES
YOU GET IT ANON
GIVE CHARACTERS MORE OF THOSE DISTINCTIVE FEATURES
I think things like that, and tooth gaps, uneven skin coloring (for example, vitiligo), the kind of freckles that covers someone's entire body, some 'crooked' features, wrinkles, eye bags, etc. are absolutely beautiful
I've never been able to understand why anyone would think having vitiligo, or having very noticable scars, or being albino, or having 'wine stain' birthmarks would be 'ugly' They're such small things in the grand scheme of things, but make a person so unique, and I've always found that beautiful
So I think characters like this new Twisted version of Jack Skellington are really important! Having a pretty-boy anime character who's considered attractive having a feature like that definitely helps towards making those features more generally accepted

Vinny (Character Sheet)
Tumblr media
Picrew
Playlist | Masterlist | Character Info
Playing opposing roles as Wyatt's partner in crime and Waylon's inside man, Vinny skillfully navigates the tumultuous dynamics between his older cousins, guided by genuine love and loyalty.
After The Aid's shocking murder attempt on Wyatt, Vinny took it upon himself to assume a greater role as The Aid's keeper, a move that revealed his pragmatic understanding of the asset's value to the Sullivans' empire and his surprising knack for diplomacy. When not attempting to broker moments of harmony between Wyatt and The Aid or covering supply runs for the family business Waylon mans, Vinny fuels his own destructive habits with Wyatt—recklessly hitting casinos and bars before scoring a bag to split for the night. Vinny is fiercely driven by his desire to help maintain family power and status in Apocamerica's supply chain, quelling both brothers by serving Waylon by day and partying with Wyatt by night. Despite his twisted, one-sided “friendship” with The Aid, his unwavering kinsmanship with Wyatt outweighs all as they both share a hunger for twisted delights–and Wyatt knows just how to fan the flames of his wild side.
Full name: Vincent Warren Sullivan (Vinny)
Role: secondary antagonist, Whumper/part-time Carewhumper
Date of Birth & sign: June 1, 1985 (47), Gemini (story takes place in the year 2032)
Gender: cis-male
Sexuality: pansexual
Height: 6'2"
Weight/body type/build: 180lbs-ish. Wiry, long-limbed, a bit pigeon-chested.
Hometown: Newark, New Jersey
Family Members: Sullivan family tree. He bounces around a lot because of work but basically lives with Wyatt. Very close with Wyatt and Waylon, basically their brother.
Left/right handed: right
Fav genre of music & anthem: 90s & early 2000s rap (claims East Coast is superior, yet his anthem is a West Coast classic), How I Could Just Kill A Man by Cypress Hill
Occupation: "Independent contractor." Jack of all trades and Waylon's right hand: fixer, security, transportation guard, caporegime (capo), hitman, former Army medic, torturer and snuff film cameraman. Somehow knows a little something about everything and always "knows a guy." He didn't get his HS diploma or GED; instead, he joined the Army soon after he got out of Juvie.
Ethnicity (+ American): Italian, French, Greek, English, Romanian, Bulgarian, Turkish, Serbian, Armenian
Hair color & length: dark brown/brown-black wavy mid-length grown-out hair. Usually combed and slicked back to make it look straighter than it is, shaved down on the sides with an undercut. Some chest hair, but not super hairy. He is usually clean-shaven around his signature petite goatee.
Hygiene: looks like he smells like an ashtray and liquor, and usually does. Not the best hygiene, also not the worst, somewhere in the middle, but is more up-kept when on the job. He uses minimal products and will just dose himself with cologne to mask the cigarette and vodka smell. But he takes good care of his teeth and has a collection of grillz, usually sportin' gold tooth caps on both canine teeth + inlay, and gold trip gap filler between front teeth (pictures below).
Tumblr media
Eye color: pale, steely blue, almond-shaped, and hooded eyes.
Skin tone: olive with cool undertones. He can get a lot darker if he gets a tan, but he is usually inside or hiding under shade if outside, so he's rather pale.
Facial features: long, inverted triangle-shaped head. Thin, boxy upper lip mouth. Long, downturned, Roman nose. Straight eyebrows with little to no arch. Narrow ears. Narrow jaw, long chin. Long, thick eyelashes that make him look like he's wearing eyeliner. He usually has bags under his eyes because he's running on nothing but 3 hours of sleep, caffeine, and coke.
Mannerisms: clicks tongue or runs tongue over his gold teeth, sniffs/wrinkles nose, clears throat, and purses lips frequently. Lots of face twitching. If he's not smoking, he's smacking on some gum or snacking on gummy candy. Fidgety, has a hard time sitting still, therefore he’s either pacing or bouncing a knee. Bit of a jabber jaw, sings or hums tunes (someone thought they had a rap career as a youngin). Gets bored easily. Obsessively cleans his guns and knives. Resting bitch face looks like he's unamused or irritated. He snorts and laughs a lot, always cracking jokes. Files his nails daily. Cracks knuckles, neck, and back. Shuffles a deck of cards he has on hand. Checks his tackle-box drug stash he carries around like a lunch pail.
Nervous ticks: it takes a lot to make him nervous since he's spent a lifetime rubbing shoulders with gang members, spent time in juvie, in the trenches of war zones, and as a professional hit man, and has killed countless anthrophages without hesitation. He's good at maintaining a level head in stressful situations, but even he has his limits. When he's actually nervous, he'll rub his chin with his index finger, comb his fingers through hair and scratch his head, yell and punch things, may shoot off bullets into the air or throw knives at something, and in an effort to collect himself, he'll swallow hard and count backward from 5 or 10 to try to ground and calm himself. Rolls his shoulders and shakes his head as if trying to shake off the tension.
Posture: relaxed, cocky and confident. Go-to stance is the power pose with his hands on his hips or clasped in front of him (and perhaps fingers wrapped around a gun). He often leans against things with one shoulder. Uses a swagger walk with a lot of sway in his shoulders. When sitting, he's usually laid back with his legs spread or hunched over, fiddling with something in his hands. Moves a lot and shifts from side to side if he's sitting or standing—rather douchey body language.
Style: in a pressed, solid black Giorgio Armani suit with black Italian leather loafers (when working), in a dingy tracksuit with a white tank underneath, or jeans with a T-shirt or button-up and a leather jacket with motorcycle boots. Wears chains around his neck, rings, and small hoop earrings. Always strapped and always blinged out.
Guns he always has within reach—Colt 1911 Government, 45 ACP, 7 + 1, Cathedral, All 24K Gold, and GLOCK 20 Gen 4 Semi-Auto Pistol (pics).
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Health: for as many drugs he does, the amount of cigarettes he smokes, and the volume of alcohol he drinks, he's surprisingly healthy—or as healthy as he can be. He works out a few times a week and gets in his cardio with jogging and boxing. Agile and can fight. He doesn't have the best diet but thinks eating a salad every other day, chugging protein shakes, and eating trail mix is the secret to his health success. Enjoys a good smoothie creation with The Aid, and it doubles as a small, weird thing they bond over.
Piercings/tattoos: ears pierced and wears small rings, bunch of tattoos—like too many for me to go into detail right now. Here are some tat ideas I swiped off Pinterest (I didn't make any of these) to give an idea, a tat mood board, if you will.
Tumblr media
Birthmarks/scars: scar around his neck from when a gang of kids tried to strangle him to death with a wire in juvie. He has a lot of scars from fighting and his time in the Army, but covered them up with tats.
Language(s): English. Thinks he knows Italian, doesn’t.
Personality: dependable. Loyal. Sycophant to rivals. Cleaver. Resourceful. Quick-witted. Surprisingly competent and knowledgeable. The embodiment of controlled chaos. Voyeuristic. Talkative. Spontaneous. Fidgety. Protective. Restless. Sarcastic. Tough. Cocky. Dangerous. Rowdy. Violent. Noisy. Impulsive. Vulgar. Aggressive. Pragmatic. Inquisitive. Can be cruel and debaucherous. Teasing. Eager. Can take on a mediator role between Waylon and Wyatt, or Wyatt and The Aid. Oddly, he reserves a gentler soft side (as gentle and soft as he can get, that is) for The Aid. Low-key psychotic and dominant (as are all Sullivans).
Vices: benzos (Xanax), cigs, coke (lines or rubs it on his gums, but refuses to smoke it because that's "crackwhore behavior"), shots of hard liquor (preferably CĂŽroc or Gray Goose vodka). Shooting things. Breaking shit. Throwing knives or darts. Going on a ride on his motorcycle. Dismembering anthrophages or cutting up an already dead cow at the slaughterhouse.
Voice: raucous, sarcastic, and neurotic. Has a thick New Jersey accent. Kinda raspy. Sounds animated and expressive with a wide range of tones, pitches, and speeds.
Smells like: burnt rubber and oil from doing donuts on his bike. Cigs, alcohol, leather, and too much cologne, probably something like Gucci Guilty, or GIORGIO ARMANI Acqua Di Gio.
Face claim(s): Adrian Brody.
Tumblr media
Character inspiration: put all these guys in a blender, add ice, and shake it up, and you have yourself a Vinny smoothie—Vincent Vega (Pulp Fiction), Edward Blake/ The Comedian (Watchmen), Todd Alquist (Breaking Bad & El Camino), Mickey Milkovich (Shameless).
Other: Admittedly, my second favorite Sullivan.

Are Gold Grillz Still in Style?
Tumblr media
Fashion trends have a remarkable ability to evolve and reinvent themselves, and one particular trend that continues to captivate attention is the resurgence of gold grillz. While some may argue that gold grillz are a relic of the past, we believe they are still very much in style. In this blog, we will explore why gold grillz have endured as a unique and fashionable statement, and why more people are embracing the golden grin.
An Iconic Symbol of Self-Expression:
Gold grillz have long been associated with individuality and self-expression. From the hip-hop and rap scenes to street fashion influencers, gold grillz have become a powerful means of communicating personal style and identity. They allow individuals to make a bold statement and stand out from the crowd.
A Fusion of Tradition and Modernity:
The appeal of gold grillz lies in their ability to bridge the gap between tradition and modernity. Gold has been used for dental purposes for centuries, with historical roots in various cultures around the world. By adorning one's teeth with gold, individuals pay homage to these cultural traditions while infusing them with a contemporary twist. This fusion of the past and present creates a captivating aesthetic that captures attention and sparks conversation.
Versatility and Customization:
One of the reasons gold grillz remain in style is their versatility. Gold can be molded and shaped to fit any tooth, allowing for a customized and personalized look. Whether you prefer a full set of gold grillz, a single tooth cap, or a grill covering the front teeth, the options are endless. The ability to tailor the design to one's unique preferences adds an element of exclusivity and individualism to the trend.
A Statement of Success and Status:
Gold has long been associated with wealth, luxury, and success. By adorning their teeth with gold, individuals showcase their achievements and elevate their perceived status. Gold grillz have become a symbol of success in certain communities, signifying a sense of accomplishment and financial prosperity. It is no wonder that many celebrities and influencers proudly flaunt their gold grillz, further fueling their desirability.
Breaking Barriers and Challenging Norms:
In a world where conformity often reigns supreme, gold grillz provide a platform for breaking barriers and challenging societal norms. By embracing this unconventional form of self-expression, individuals assert their independence and rejection of mainstream expectations. Gold grillz allow people to be unapologetically themselves, inspiring others to embrace their own unique style and celebrate diversity.
Conclusion:
Gold grillz have proven their resilience and enduring appeal in the world of fashion. They continue to captivate and empower individuals seeking to make a distinctive statement and express their personal style. As a symbol of self-expression, a fusion of tradition and modernity, a status marker, and a catalyst for breaking barriers, gold grillz are undoubtedly still in style. So, whether you choose to rock a full set or opt for a single cap, embrace the golden grin and let your smile be your fashionable masterpiece.

How would you describe the best humanization of Tamatoa?
it’s mostly about his essence for me, i can overlook facial/bodily features just for the sake of seeing that man who has transformed himself completely into the best (according to his worldview) version of himself. a walking masterpiece. he’s bright, sparkly, bold, dramatic - eye-catching in general. give me a boy that gets ALL the looks when he walks in/by because of how flashy and over the top he is.
as for the physical features there’s already plenty of human-like things in his canon look, so just… add a nose to that, give him a more human skintone(or don’t! purple man! stunning!), slap on some hair and that’s pretty much it?
things ive personally been able to catch after looking at him for four years
obvious: those big round bulging eyes. i’m seeing so many humanizations who opt for that deepset narrow “hot boy” look… please don’t. his eyes are wonderful as they are.
big mouth. big, uneven, yellow teeth. people have a tendency to just draw this perfect hollywood smile, add a little gap and move on. like c’mon.
also teeth decorations. his barnacles have so much potential: switch them up for anything. gems, crystals, grillz, tooth piercings
his underbite aka the reason why he smiles with both rows of teeth showing
dark fluffy lashes. listen. if they decide to give a CRAB lashes - those lashes are important
the chub. his chin almost blending in with his neck. his full soft cheeks. man is fat
also goes for his body
note: with that, we kind of do have the canon reference for his body build - early concept art
Tumblr media
and you can see that it’s not just fat, it’s muscle+fat. that good solid tummy. those arms.
his bioluminescent markings:
Tumblr media
i did a rendition of them for a human face (+ added something to the eyes).
and by the way, the human face in question is my early artbreeder human!tamatoa attempt
Tumblr media
artbreeder doesn’t really allow you to go into extremes with jewelry or makeup (as well as change the skintone without changing hair and eye color, so this is about as dark as I could possibly get him to be). and no underbite here as well :(
but i was really going for that ugly pretty feeling. like… he’s attractive to the point of being repulsive with his big blue eyes and everything, but he’s also repulsive to the point of being attractive. i feel like this constant confusion from the beholder’s point of view is what would make human!him captivating. the “hold on something isn’t right” or “hold on something in him is so cute”
also my next point
androgyny. tamatoa is androgynous on some level. even in canon form he’s got this combination of “strong/masculine” (physical size, deep voice, dominant presence, big heavy chin, his little barnacle beard) and “feminine” (big eyes, soft features, flamboyance). he’s based off david bowie, the androgynous icon, and HEAVILY queercoded.
adding to the queercoding bit. we kinda established the “flamboyant mlm”, but there’s another aspect to him that the fandom seems to miss
Tumblr media
“story of shifting shape”.
his whole “i changed myself completely to fit what i thought of myself and now despise who i used to be”… this feels like SUCH a trans metaphor to me.
he never goes into detail about his “drab little crab” life and i’m pretty sure we figured out “l’histoire” is just a story moana made up to tell the kids - there’s no way she could know any of that.
considering this, i would really love to see some transmasculine human!tamatoas with their wonderful barnacle beards and inexplainable gender envy towards a certain demigod
his missing leg would be a WAY bigger deal in human form. ripping off a human(oid)’s leg would mean that maui makes him fall to the ground, which is pretty much a certain win. why didn’t he kill tamatoa? even if maui couldn’t for some reason/decided to be merciful, why didn’t tamatoa die from excessive bleeding/pain shock? in modern aus with both of them fully human, how does one man even cut/rip off another man’s limb physically? this requires sitting there and carefully cutting through flesh, muscle, bone (with no magic fishhook that could potentially slice it off in one hit) - let’s be real, maui can’t do that even to the worst person in the world. so, option 1: tamatoa’s missing a leg in general, not because of maui (or INDIRECTLY because of maui). born without one. car accident. any accident. bonus points if he believes maui’s at FAULT for that. pretty much the canon way. or, option 2: missing finger. 10 fingers of a human. 10 legs of a coconut crab. see the parallel? a finger can potentially be lost in a physical fight. not having a finger is a relatively small injury, but it interferes with your daily life just enough to absolutely bloody hate the person who did this to you. the leg missing is better character design potential though. just imagine how intricate and stunning his prosthetics would be.
and remember! tamatoa’s the best no matter which form he chooses to take on, guiding the hand of an artist 😌

🦷👄MIND THE GAP 👄🦷 I’ve always loved the space in between. As a designer who pools from childhood nostalgia I used to pine for a vacuous tooth gap like @georgiamayjagger, featured here in Bijules jewelry for @dazed and @garage_magazine. I adore the concept of making jewelry for negative space from custom grillz to the ubiquitous and apparently imitable Bijules nail ring. #alwaysfirst #trendmaker #bijulesjewelry #bijulesbrigade #bespokebijules #customgrillz #customfinejewelry #mindthegap #toothgap #goldjewelry #bipocjewelrydesigner #nailring #bijulesnailring #goldgap #dazedandconfused #georgiamayjagger #garagemagazine (at Manhattan, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTVC_V2L4-5/?utm_medium=tumblr

Artist Biography by Jason Birchmeier
Tumblr media Tumblr media
American rapper Asher Roth ascended from the Pennsylvania suburbs into the world of hip-hop in the late 2000s with a thoughtful flow influenced by Jay-Z and Eminem. Utilizing social media to share his music while he was still a student, he broke into the mainstream with his commercial debut single, 2009's 'I Love College.' That novelty hit was eventually certified double-platinum and helped push his first album, Asleep in the Bread Aisle, to number five on the U.S. charts. Favoring mixtapes and EP releases, he didn't release his sophomore effort, RetroHash, until 2014. A third set, Flowers on the Weekend, landed in 2020.
Born in Morrisville, Pennsylvania, a small suburban community located northeast of Philadelphia, he began rapping as a teenager, penning rhymes about experiences that were more familiar to him and his upbringing. Later, he developed a fan base while attending West Chester University, posting his music on social media. Those early releases included the 2005 EP Just Listen and the 2006 mixtape album Believe the Hype. During his sophomore year, he reached out to Scooter Braun, who quickly became his manager. Braun, along with Steve Rifkind of SRC Records, signed him to a major-label recording contract with Universal Music Group. Meanwhile, Roth continued to build his underground audience with The Greenhouse Effect Mixtape. Hosted by Don Cannon and DJ Drama of the renowned Gangsta Grillz mixtape series, The Greenhouse Effect Mixtape was released online as a free download.
In 2009 he released his commercial debut single, 'I Love College,' a party rap novelty hit that went all the way to number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. On the heels of this mainstream breakthrough hit and the follow-up single, 'Lark on My Go Kart,' Roth released his full-length solo album debut, Asleep in the Bread Aisle. Produced primarily by Oren Yoel, the gold-certified Asleep in the Bread Aisle drew comparisons between Roth and Eminem (a matter addressed by the rapper himself on the album track 'As I Em') and quickly rose into the U.S. Top 5. Git merge tool for mac. Riding his newfound fame, he toured with Kid Cudi, B.o.B., and blink-182.

In the years that followed, Roth busied himself with a number of mixtape and EP releases, including 2010's Seared Foie Gras with Quince and Cranberry and a 2013 sequel to The Greenhouse Effect. He delivered his sophomore LP RetroHash in 2014. Though it didn't reach the same heights as his debut, the set peaked in the Top 50 and featured guests ZZ Ward, Curren$y, Vic Mensa, and more.

Another significant gap followed, filled with just one EP, the 2016 collaboration with Nottz Raw and Travis Barker, Rawther. Roth returned in 2020 with his third official studio effort, Flowers on the Weekend. Released on his own Retrohash label, Flowers featured 'Way More Fun' with Lil Yachty.

Call Me If You Get Lost
Tumblr media
Tyler, The Creator
#HipHop
2021
The only way for Tyler to out do ‘IGOR’ was by making a GANGSTA GRILLZ tape. IGOR left a lot of fans over the moon with Tyler’s momentum but it wasn’t quite what we expected.
CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST is that gap between Igor and Hip Hop.
Tyler has some hair raising, eye opening moments on this album. Songs like Corso and Lumberjack bring back a boom-nap sound. “Rolls Royce pull up, Black boy hop out” was a favourite verse off of the track ‘LUMBERJACK’. Tracks like ‘WUSYANAME’ and “I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE’ bring out the softer side of the album with 90’s RnB sounds and gentle soul samples setting an scenic backdrop for a hip hop focused project.
What your getting from this project is a lot of crunk sounds and heavy 2000’s rap style Tyler. Showing the world that the he can still rap.

Tyler, The Creator - Call Me If You Get Lost
Seventh album from the Los Angeles-based Odd Future rapper featuring guest appearances from 42 Dugg, Ty Dolla Sign, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Lil Wayne and Pharrell Williams
7/13
Tumblr media
In the 2000s, mixtapes became the most effective and popular medium for aspiring rappers to build fanbases, seduce critics, and serve as commercial proof-of-concept to major labels. Even established rappers used the format to work out new ideas or to circumvent those labels entirely. As file sharing turned what was once a regional enterprise into a global one, rappers who would have previously given a song here and there to the DJs who issued compilation-style mixtapes began headlining their own. And so instead of cutting a hundred demos that might never be heard, or rapping a capella to starchy executives in boardrooms, many artists who broke during the W. Bush years did so by jacking industry beats and rapping underneath those DJs’ excited yelps, their formative work rewound and doubled back until it settled in your brain just so.
When digital streaming platforms made it easy to profit off of online-only releases, provided the artist or label owns the rights to what’s uploaded, “mixtape” became a nominal term used cynically to signal which rap records were meant to be taken more seriously than others. (Think of how many times you’ve seen advertising for an artist’s “debut album” only to think, “Don’t they have three albums already?”) Call Me If You Get Lost—which is either Tyler, the Creator’s sixth or seventh album, depending on whether or not you count 2009’s Bastard—argues for the mixtape not as a tidy bit of careerist maneuvering, but as an aesthetic tradition. It’s an inspired choice, nostalgic but irreverent, and suited perfectly to his strengths: It grants him the freedom to play with tone, to write personally or use his gravelly voice as texture, to treat the harshest raps and the most delicate hooks as mad experiments gone wrong.
Call Me is hosted by DJ Drama, the animated Philly native whose Gangsta Grillz series includes some of the most essential rap records of the century so far. There are times when the album evokes the grittiest of those tapes—its single reimagines a Gravediggaz song—but it breaks up the heavier cuts with shards of bright pop. (At times Call Me recalls In My Mind: The Prequel, the 2006 Gangsta Grillz tape by Tyler’s hero, Pharrell.) Drama is at his comedic best, goading on verses or underlining Tyler’s monologues about jet-setting (“A young lady just fed me French vanilla ice cream!”). He’s irresistible even when he’s fucking up the album’s title, as he does on the excellent “Hot Wind Blows,” which reunites him with Lil Wayne.
While DJ Drama’s presence is indispensable, it is not the only thing that recalls those old .zip files. Of Call Me’s 16 songs, only five make it to the three-minute mark—and that includes the two marathon affairs, “Wilshire” and “Sweet/I Thought You Wanted to Dance,” which run eight and a half and 10 minutes, respectively. Even within those shorter records are sharp breaks and jagged connections: see the way both “Corso” and “Lemonhead” open with menace before moving to more Technicolor sounds, or the way “Massa” inverts that progression, seeming at first to be brighter only to quickly get dulled out again. When Tyler’s old Odd Future comrade Domo Genesis rappels into “Manifesto,” he does so under cover of a drastic beat switch that throws the song into chaos.
The Gangsta Grillz conceit allows Tyler some latitude to meander—the platonic-ideal mixtape includes freestyles, original songs, radio singles, snippets of unreleased material—but he gives Call Me enough motifs that they eventually fuse into a spine. There are near-constant references to travel (the smartest of these is the beginning of “Massa,” where he cuts off an earnest-seeming monologue about his passport mid-sentence, as if he knows how it sounds) and to Rolls Royces: the way the new models’ doors open; the fact that Tyler now owns a pair; the detailing on their ceilings and the cookie crumbs he litters on their floors; the fact that their signature umbrellas are superfluous in Los Angeles. He returns to both these things the way rappers might circle back to an anchor word or phrase while freestyling. This has an intoxicating effect: Over the course of Call Me, it becomes unclear whether these material flexes are his focus, and the more wrenching personal revelations bleed in and take over, or if it’s the other way around. It’s probably a little of both.
As for the personal: Those bloodlettings come in a couple of different forms. There is “Manifesto,” where he meditates on the impact of his past shock-rap provocations and vents about the way he scans to both Black and white audiences; there is his revelation, on “Massa,” that his mother was living in a shelter when his breakout 2011 single “Yonkers” dropped. But the matter he dedicates the most time to is (what sounds like) a single fractured affair between himself and a friend’s lover. This is rendered in prosaic detail on the sprawling and anxious “Wilshire”: one minute he coolly concludes that the affair is worth ruining a friendship over, the next he finds the idea unthinkable. He is deeply, passionately in love, then nervously analytical. It has already inspired swaths of gossip and speculation as to the identity of the woman (and, consequently, the friend). But you picture Tyler alone in a hotel room somewhere, refreshing his phone, hoping it will inspire a single email.
There are plenty of moments on Call Me If You Get Lost that are playful, sometimes joyous. “Wusyaname,” which makes smart use of YoungBoy Never Broke Again and Ty Dolla $ign, is a sweaty flip of H-Town’s “Back Seat (Wit No Sheets)”; the anecdote about Tyler’s mother is paid off with her own, almost unbelievably colorful monologue. Yet even these have a pall cast over them. In the middle of “Massa,” Tyler raps in a low register and a deliberate flow: “Everyone I ever loved had to be loved in the shadows.” This maps onto the affair from “Wilshire,” and maybe onto his past relationships with men, but it is tragic—the notion that a feeling so pure could be swallowed by the secrecy it requires. At moments like this, Tyler seems uniquely in touch with himself, ready to be naked on record. But later in the same verse, he raps about being so paranoid he has to sleep with a gun—now in a voice so affected it’s unclear whether it’s a cry for help, a joke, or both. These things do not move linearly; the willingness to be sincere does not mean it’s easy to do so. If Tyler feels his true life happens in the shadows and crevices—the gaps between what everyone else is meant to see—it’s only appropriate he revived a mixtape format that pushes once-hidden ideas and asides to the center of the frame.
