Regarding the above shout-out, Tyler, The Creator shared his debut collection for Louis Vuitton earlier this week and even took the opportunity to thank Pharrell Williams during his reveal.
The IGOR rapper took to Instagram in late February to unveil his first offering with the luxury fashion house, of which Skateboard P is the Men’s Creative Director.
