Tyler, The Creator: CHROMAKOPIA tour

1 minute to read

Wow, this was a phenomenal show! I'd seen Tyler before, back in 2022, but this show surpassed even that, in my opinion. The set design, the storytelling in the show, and of course the incredible music from his back catalogue, ... Everything was top-notch!

The openers where Paris Texas and Lil Yachty; 2 artists I must say I'm not super familiar with. But Paris Texas definitely surprised me with their sound; I'll be looking into them more!

Tyler opened his set with the first couple songs off of his most recent album, CHROMAKOPIA. And man, those first few songs hit even harder live than they do when listening to the album on streaming. The mosh pits during Rah Tah Tah were absolutely insane where I was, and I'm not the type to stand on the sidelines and watch 😉

The show moved to the center stage during Sticky, where he ended up doing a bunch of stuff off older albums, ushered in by him putting the corresponding vinyl record on a turntable. He moved back to the "main" stage after a fair few songs, and then closed out the show with a few more bangers from all different eras of his music.

Definitely a night to remember, and this is a new contender for "the best show I've been to"; though it's hard to pick from all of them.
