Recently, Tyler dropped a new interview he did with Vince Staples for his GOLF Media app. While there, Vince and Tyler talked about how people perceive art and culture from a young age, how it comes from your surroundings, his breakout single “Yonkers,” and how the beat was made to be a joke. Check out the full clip above.
“N*ggas don’t know that that beat was made as a joke. I was trying to make a sh*tty New York beat and we was just rapping like we was from New York like we were retarded. And then, I just had some random verses and I was just like ‘I’ll just record it to this beat, this beat is kinda cool.’ And then n*ggas really liked it. That’s so nuts, because that shit was actually a fucking joke. I made that beat in literally eight minutes.”
