Tyler, The Creator counts himself among the millions who call themselves big-time fans of JAY-Z. As fans across the globe celebrate the Brooklyn mogul’s 52nd birthday, an open call was made on Twitter by Spotify Urban Music Head Carl Chery about naming their favorite Hov songs.
Naturally, Tyler stepped up to the plate and rattled off his favorite five without hesitation and one extra for good measure.
“‘Fuck All Nite,’ ‘Excuse Me Miss,'” Tyler began. “His Funk Flex ‘Grammy Family Freestyle’ if that counts, ‘Allure,’ oh his verse on ‘You gotta lot of shit that’s cool to me… ‘‘Do It Again’‘ off Vol. 3! That verse crazy, insane. Oh and ‘Show You How,’ that last verse showed a lot of perspective to me as a kid, so that’s six so I’m done.”
When asked if he would remove the “Grammy Family” freestyle, Tyler immediately swore off doing such a thing.
“No! No!” he exclaimed. “C’mon no, that shit has … no, that shit is crazy!”
Chery’s tweet has garnered over 150 replies and 600 quote tweets, all with various classic Hov tracks picked by some of his biggest fans.

Tyler,The Penetrator loves Gay-Z… typical
amazing how many dudes in 2021 still get freaked about by men having sex with other men. you sound like a straight bozo that needs to get the fk back in his time machine or fk back off to whatever pillbilly prison you “live” in. your kind is shrinking fast. good.
Take a shot everytime Jay-Z says “Food for Thought” in his songs. You’ll be drunk in no time.
That must be when he’s rhyming like Common Sense lol
Of course they’re mainly Neptune joints, but rock with them.
Politics As Usual, U Don’t Know, both versions of A Million and One, Where I’m From, Dynasty Intro
you a real hov fan ?
Those are easily some of Jay’s best work fool
Idk if he’s trolling or just that young but this list is shit… 5 is hard as fuck, but off the top of my head
You Must Love Me, Where Have You Been, U Don’t Know, Dope Man, D’Evils
Majority are just Neptune cuts
I always suspected the Neptunes are ghost producers for Tyler
I’m sure they lend a hand here and there but Tyler really just studied everything they ever did

My top 5: 1. I would do anything for money more money and much more money, 2. Overrated billionaire with a boring flow, 3. My wife is also overrated (moreover she can’t decide if she wanna be role model or a bitch), 4. I worked with everybody in the industry but real mcs 5. Hiphop is only business for me (and I don’t know shit about BDP or PE)
