Tyler The Creator tweeted in May that the Odd Future Wolf Gang collective was “no more.” Fellow member Earl Sweatshirt responded on Twitter and said later in an interview with The Guardian that the collective is a “teenage boy club that got famous that I’m trying to not be defined by.”
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Tyler addresses the current state of Odd Future.
“Niggas grow,” he says. “I just want everyone to shine. And I hope everyone takes the opportunities that they have thrown at them and get out of their head. Sometimes I think people are in their head too much and never take a step back and just look.”
Tyler The Creator also responds to criticism for his Cherry Bomb album. He says it’s his best work yet because of the different elements that he put into the production, but he says he understands why fans of his old work would not enjoy it.
“We get stuck in nostalgia,” the 24-year-old says. “I wish Pharrell could make In My Mind a million times, but it makes me appreciate him so much that he’s not stuck. 50 Cent was stuck, trying to make the same album three times and now look.”
50 Cent filed for bankruptcy in July.

He’s not dissing 50 at all. Saying something negative doesn’t necessarily mean dissing.

A rapper could give a 4 hour dissertation on existentialism, but all these ‘journalists’ would look for is something remotely resembling a diss, so they can have their click bait. I realize that’s the world we live in now, but that doesn’t mean it’s still not some slimy ass punk shit. Rappers need to start duffin’ these fake ass ‘journalists’.
Hip hop dx staff never went to school to write. We’re lucky they can spell correctly.
Agree, its really sad how hip hop journalism has become. Everything is a diss now, rappers can’t even mention other rappers in interviews without these writings claiming its a diss. The real sad thing is HipHopDx wasn’t always like this. Over the years they have become more sloppy and sloppy, even their editorials which I used to love reading so much have no become poor
another L for curly
Whos tyler?
Damn 50 stay losing lol
Whos tyler though? I never heard of him till now.
50 Cent filed for bankruptcy in July.
what the fuck that gotta do with his music
people need to see a difference between a ”beef” and a opinion about music/an artist ……the intertainement in music is not in the right place….it is art and a way to try to explain your perception of things
How is this a diss!? 50 has always been tryin’ to top Get Rich or Die Tryin’ and has openly said so every time an album of his has came around.
The bankruptcy comment is also irrelevant as 50 filed bankruptcy to avoid paying money to people who was suing him, dude is rich as fuck!
Poorly translated article.
not quite sure this is a diss..
It’s definitely NOT a compliment…… It’s his opinion and you can’t make ppl react the way you want to react when you mention their in a questionable light which can flirt with the idea of beef unless they have each other’s personal number where they can just call each other
Thats true 50 never really mix his stuff up.. Every about the streets and I’ll get ya boi…. When he worked with Dr dre he done stuff like WIndow shopper, Candy shop, Stunt 101. Nows it all simliar type of music. If we look at the top 5 rappers in the game they have differnt type of songs from street, Inspirational, songs about life up n down etc etc…. I don’t see it as shade but some fans will..
how about 50 bars, ghetto quran, 21 questions, the funeral, 9 shots and many more? 50 is legendary not someone like tyler, drake all that teen bullshit
I really thought hip hop dx was above that sensationalism “TYLER THE CREATOR DISSES 50 CENT!! WHAAT??” FOH. That was not anywhere near a diss, it was an honest opinion based on observation, and you know what? He’s kinda right. You blogs are really starting to become part of the problem of what’s wrong with todays generation of journalism and information consumption.
I have AIDS
Hope this kid can take the heat 50 will bring. Mentioning 50s name is not a good idea
50 is nerve wrecking Always talking crap about every and anybody. I use to like him Now he is like a teenager in middle school. Let me pick on this person to get my name out here He needs to stop
This little nigga cant sell bubblegum and what gives him the right to open his big mouth, Fuck Odd Future Pussy Gang
Tyler’s not lying about 50….he didn’t diss or throw shade, he just said it how it is. And I agree. And in my opinion Cherry bomb was a great album, production was A1, musically his best album (in my opinion)
The two favourite rappers for the white boys. We all know the 13 year old faggot hipster white boys loved tyler the creator. And 50 cent fans are the white boys that think eminem is the greatest rapper ever.
probably you’re just a white boy
For the white boys? You do realize black boys are looking ridiculous nowdays. Yung Thug and all the non Englisg speaking mfs are black peoples favorite artist. Eminem can and will outrap any black imbecile in his era and this current one. You black racist mfs cant touch his talent. Top 10 MC
You know whats a fact? Black people are more likely to tun into a faggot than white people. Proven by studies and statistics.
LMAO…did you really type that shit with a straight face … Whites are the leaders of the perverted shit e.g sex with animals (tick)
sex with their own siblings (tick) pedophilia you guy’s really excel at this one (tick) and finally the *rainbow flag* *same love* (tick)(tick)(tick) ….LOL
tyler fucks with fiddy heavy
If Curious George had a son with Whoopi Goldberg it would be Tyler.Chimp chump ass nigga.
Tyler DIDNT diss him but he DID throw shade at the nigga lol. Although I agree with wat tyler said,50 cent is LEGENDARY. His music and contributions to the industry is classic,important and will go down in history. Im 23 years old. Back in 02/03, he was my favorite rapper. He was my TUPAC. I still feel like he’s the CLOSEST thing to pac we have. Of course pac is better. But they both made good music, both had crazy success, both were thugs,both been shot,both were very intelligent. I can watch both interviews all day cuz they’re geniuses. Jay Z smart too and do intelligent interviews also.
DMX is the closest thing Pac that we had. 50 Cent is the most successfully marketed Pac-a-Like. Ja Rule was the Pac-a-Like that got punked. Lil Zane was Pac-a-Like for pre-teen girls. X had the authenticity, the on-screen and on-wax talent, the faith-based good-and-evil conten and unfortunately, addiction. And like Pac, the only thing that could stop X was X. (Freddie Gibbs is the underground Pac-a-Like).
I love DMX! He dope AF. legendary also.
Nice observation. I’ll be on your list soon perhaps.
Lol you forgot about Drama,The Realest,I-20 and half of no limit from 1999-2003….lol….Do4$elph!!!
that is so true
Yeah erybody know even 50 that his music career aint as good as Pharrel right now. Them album just wasn’t MVP status.
Why do this n**az keep 50’s name on their lips tho smh
whatever, tyler is a poser anyway so i wouldn’t be offended by what he has to say…
Hahaha mfs are mad at 50 for not SELLING OUT! This non talent mf should keep holding hands with Rainbow fags and stop commenting on Real G.s that dont change their lifestyle foe the love of money
By the time I’m writing this, Tyler has far surpassed 50.
Please. 50 Cent accomplished more in one song than this faggot will ever accomplish in his entire bitchmade career.
Tyler is far better than 50 LMFAO.
Rakim and KRS ARE THE GOATS of the 1980s
