The lavish Baudelaire has a world of accolades and material possessions that he primarily relishes in, but below the surface he is still troubled by his longing for an eluding love, a contemplation with past personal issues and a critique of societal concepts in the present, all of which come as a surprise as these issues should theoretically be solved by his status and worldliness. No matter how widely the tracks vary sonically, the lyrical content consistently develops the character of Sir Baudelaire. The “Tyler Baudelaire” character is original, hilarious and entertaining. Thematically, the whole album is outstanding. Tyler’s own twist on the iconic album cover truly sets a perfectly fitting image for the themes of the album and his new persona. The obvious homage to Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s “ Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version” is a great nod to the late rapper and foundational figure in the genre. The seventh full-length project from Tyler, The Creator arrives with a new character: an eclectic globetrotter who joins a long list of personas that Tyler has created throughout his career.īefore even getting into the actual musical content, the album cover is a fantastic and memorable choice.
