Tyler, The Creator isn’t pleased with some of the concertgoers who attended his Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival over the weekend. On Sunday night (November 10), Drake appeared onstage at the Dodger Stadium as a surprise guest, drawing boos from the crowd who’d expected to see Frank Ocean.
The Odd Future vet took to Twitter on Monday (November 11) to give those who gave Drake a hard time a little piece of his mind, making it abundantly clear he didn’t condone their behavior.
“I THOUGHT BRINGING ONE OF THE BIGGEST ARTIST ON THE FUCKING PLANET TO A MUSIC FESTIVAL WAS FIRE!” he wrote in all caps. “BUT FLIPSIDE, A LIL TONE DEAF KNOWING THE SPECIFIC CROWD IT DREW. SOME CREATED A NARRATIVE IN THEIR HEAD AND ACTED OUT LIKE ASSHOLES WHEN IT DIDNT COME TRUE AND I DONT FUCK WITH THAT.”
Tyler added he felt the way they behaved reflected poorly on him and the Camp Flog Gnaw crowd.
“THIS NIGGA DID FEEL NO WAYS!” he continued. “SONG IS BEAUTIFUL. ALSO, MOSTLY EVERYONE WAS HAVING A GREAT TIME, THOSE SHITS IN THE FRONT AREA WERE THE ONES BEING MAD RUDE, WHICH, I CAN SEE WHY, BUT, NAH, FUCK THAT, YALL REPRESENTED ME AND FLOG TO MY GUEST AND MADE US LOOK SOOO ENTITLED AND TRASH.”
The IGOR mastermind also noted he felt like he was seeing cancel culture offline, while defending Drake at the same time.
“THAT SHIT WAS LIKE MOB MENTALITY AND CANCEL CULTURE IN REAL LIFE AND I THINK THAT SHIT IS FUCKING TRASH,” he wrote. NIGGA DID FEEL NO WAYS! THAT SONG IS BEAUTIFUL! MOST GUYS DONT DO ALBUM CUTS! THANK YOU AUBREY!”
Tyler ended his tirade on a high note.
“BUT HEY MAN SHIT HAPPENS, ALL JOKES ASIDE SHIT LOWKEY FUNNY HAHAHA,” he continued. “ASIDE FROM THAT, HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GOOD TIME. AGAIN, NO ARREST NO BULLSHIT MAN A LOT OF PEOPLE ENJOYED IT, THANKS AGAIN!”
He added, “AGAIN, THANK YOU DRAKE! ( IM FUCKING PISSED HOTLINE BLING WAS NEXT THATS MY FUCKING SHIT IM GONNA PLAY THAT IN THE SHOWER RIGHT NOW),” appearing to confirm Drake ended his set early.
Footage of Drake’s foiled set starting making the rounds shortly after the show went down. Revisit footage below.
I was a Drake hater until I saw him live. he puts on a great show. I saw him when he was touring with only So Far Gone and a few cuts off of Thank Me Later. I dont think of Frank Ocean and Drake as totally different types of artists. it’s not like the Dixie Chicks came out on stage… I am surprised they booed him.
They mainly booed cause they wanted Frank specifically and the only ‘evidence’ they had that he would appear were his recent singles but when their fantasies weren’t realized and instead got arguably the biggest music star in the world they disrespected both him and Tyler by throwing hissy fits until they not only forced Drake to leave early but also realized Frank really wasn’t gonna show up… it’s sad but hilarious
Entitled? They bought tickets to see what they paid for, and last minute, were not given what they paid for. I don’t care if Frank was the main act or not, people should be partially refunded for when that shit happens. And booing reffered to “real life cancel culture”? Yeah, that is NOT cancel culture. That’s just humans doing what they have done for thousands of years… Expressing when an entertainer sucks to them
Nobody ever said Frank was going to perform….. so whoever bought tickets and was upset about that, that’s on them… ??? means ???, it doesn’t mean Frank Ocean… and I feel like Tyler probably did try to get Frank to come but it just didn’t happen. I can’t think of another act(s) that would’ve been better than the combination of Uzi, Rocky and Drake. smh, have some respect for music culture.
Ahhhh, then I rescind my entire statement lol. I thought I read that he was supposed to perform. But, I will say, I’m not agaisnt Drake being booed. He is a pop star, labeled hiphop artist, and is part of the downfall of great hiphop music. So, fuck em!
Stfu dude, you’re corny.
People who call other people corny online have a 2000% chance of using the words: “lit”, “Bruh”, “dead ass”, “I’m weak”, “litty”…. Was I right? Is that you?!
Tyler the creator is straight fire…boy got bard and I bet that he has a big d*ck. He likes white boys tho. Torah Kights stand up!!! We need to eliminate the donkey booties out of community. 2/3rds.
How are they entitled for being mad at not getting what they paid for, instead having to listen to the terrible crooning of a human maxi pad? Drake had his moment with the overly sensitive generation over the last 5-7 years, but the crybabies have grown up and dont go to these concerts anymore. And its not like he has the last influence of a Pac or a Big, so its pretty much over for the cornball.

I’d feel bad for Tyler but its actually all his fault with the gay ish. Now you got a gay fan base who do this shit.
Not everyone likes Drake.
fucking homo generation, I don’t even like drake but id still happily see him perform for fuck sake.
it was an LGBTQ fanbase. Thats all Tyler draws nowadays. Im looking at you funny if you claim to be a straight man and listen to Tyler and Frank Ocean
Despite how popular Drake is not every likes or appreciates his music. Tyler makes music for the anti-mainstream fan base. Then brings the biggest pop rapper out? What logic did he use?!?
I’m going to see Freddie Gibbs in two weeks. I’m throwing bottles on site if a mumble rapper hits the stage to perform
FACTS
I would never go back to that homo erotic camp after that B.S you can say what you want but im sure if they put Drakes name on the roster before hand alot of people wouldnt have bought tickets
You cant just “suprise” people with random acts and expect them to like it
Maybe if it was a free concert but not like this
