Alexa. you think Jeffrey`s storry is great… on saturday I bought a great new Mitsubishi Evo sincee geting a check for $4420 this last 5 weeks and also ten/k last month. this is certainly the easiest-work Ive ever done. I began this 4 months ago and almost immediately startad bringin in more than $79, per/hr. I work through this website…….. ZOO80 Com
I think you just announced it.
“Tyler ,The Creator moving into production…” He’s produced over 99 percent of what he’s been on and some for others. How much moving into production can he do HHDX?
Tyler BEEN a producer, he aint using it as somethin to fall back on like Mac and ASAP, Mac just wack at producing. ASAP made some heat with Ghetto Symphony
cool im a fan of instrumentals, yea even though i didnt like wolf or much of tylers works, he can produce some beats.
When did Tyler ever “move” into production?? He has always been in production, DX has the shittiest writers I swear
leave the beats for Clams Casino
Hahaha so true clams and Ty beats are the best fitting producers for Rocky.
tyler been producing since he was like 9 years old.. really hiphopdx? you guys are fuckin lames
yes, tyler has been producing for a long time. anyone who has listened to OF knows that. BUT, with “Wolf” he stated that this album he was focusing more on the production than the lyrics, which is a change for him, because the lyrics, the story and the image were the primary focus of his previous work.
Yeah it is a some what misleading tagline, but its not completely inaccurate.
beats music is aight
Tyler BEEN producing his own music since he started. This website is fucking retarded. You all suck.
word up i considered him a producer/rapper combo from the start
“impromptly” A$$WIPE?!
LOL this fruity ass nigga aint got no talent on the mic so how he gonna shine on makin beats? Killyoself ASAP.
a$$ap wishes he were SpaceGhostPurrp but he will never be anywhere near that realness. why don’t rocky just go get a reality show or become a judge on ru paul’s drag race were he belongs?

LMAO rocky is finally PROVING that he is a SPACEGHOSTPURRP wanna-b. He knows if he still had Purrps production he would b respected in da streets. but now he just a commercial sell-out. “Ambient” and “Druggy” beats. Could not sound anymore like Purrp if he tried
