In the pantheon of modern hip-hop, few albums have reshaped the landscape as profoundly as Tyler, The Creator’s fourth studio album, Scum Fuck Flower Boy (commonly stylized as Flower Boy ). Released on July 21, 2017, it was the record that silenced critics who had pigeonholed Tyler as a mere shock rapper. Instead, Flower Boy unveiled a lush, introspective, jazz-inflected soundscape about loneliness, love, and self-discovery.
