What we do get though, is a much more confessional and in fact listenable album. We know where we stand and, despite general hints before release that ‘Wolf ‘might take a different direction from previous albums ‘Bastard’ and ‘Goblin’, there are no huge surprises. For existing fans and detractors alike though, this is pretty standard. If you’re not already familiar with Tyler the Creator’s work, this may come as a slight shock. Fuck you… I hate you, so fucking much… cause I think you’re a fucking fag.” Well.that is if he can learn to control Wolf Haley, Goblin, Sam and all those other personalities of his. As long as he stays true to who he is, he can't do no wrong. No matter what though, Tyler, The Creator will still have a huge following of fans and praise form hip hop peers. Tyler/Odd Future fans may still like this regardless but the album in a lot of areas will have to grow on me. Well.overall, I did like it but coming off of Goblin I kinda did expect more from this. The fact that Tyler didn't rap on it is what probably drew me away from it. It overall sounds like Sunday afternoon jazz. On "Treehome95" he links up with Erykah Badu for a very laid back and calm track. I want to believe Pharrell had a hand in producing this along with the ad-libing which is why it sound like it does. I mentioned a few beats that sounded a bit commercial for Tyler's taste and "48" is that. "Tamale" just sounded extremely weird and awkward which is saying something when talking about Tyler, The Creator. This was nothing more than a album filler. Especially the second portion of it where it sounds like more instrumental then vocals. Here he merges three songs into one track and none of them are really that good. I have no idea what Tyler was trying to do here but it failed. Case and point: "PartyIsntOver/Campfire/Bimmer". There were songs on this album that felt like they just did not belong at all and were made just to be made. Most people would hate this song but it's fun to me. Just like "Bitch Suck Dick" on Goblin and "We Got Bitches" on The OF Tape Vol. "Trashwang" is another one of those wild and rambunctious tracks where he, Taco and Jasper Dolphin are just yelling the most rude and ignorant shit imaginable on a trap-style beat. They both may have out did Tyler on his own shit. I was a little disappointed Earl Sweatshirt didn't have a longer verse but he was good for the time he was on it. Domo Genesis had one of the dopest verses I've ever heard from him. By far my favorite track on here was "Rusty". Expressing his feelings for that same chick. The emotional roller coaster continues with "Awkward" which to me sounds like a continuation of "She" from his last album. "Colossus" showed his emotion towards nagging and obsessed fans and speaking from their point of view. There was so much emotion in this song to the point where I feel like if it came down to it, Tyler would trade all this rap shit in just to have a father in his life.

This is where he again speaks on the pain of not having his father in his life and being a "bastard". I mentioned the emotion that Tyler displays on a lot of songs on here, one of those songs which is one of my favorites on here is "Answer". The positives and negatives are pretty much even. I for the most part thought the album was good. Although there are a few that have somewhat of a commercial attempt. Those weird, eerie and distorted sounding beats. Production for the most part was your typical Odd Future style production. It's displayed on a lot of the songs on here. What it was was a more emotional side of Tyler. So I figured Wolf would be either the same or a bit watered down. Though I never got to hear his first album Bastard, I did listen to his second album Goblin which I did enjoy. Going into this I wondered where Tyler would go with this. Which only meant an eager anticipation for this. Since then, he and his group Odd Future have gained quite a large fan base.

It was even enough for him to win the best new artist award at the MTV VMA's. When viewer's took a look at his video for "Yonkers" and gazed upon the bizarre and sick imagery mixed with his graphically obscene and disturbing lyrics, it made everyone turn heads. In the history of hip hop, there hasn't been many rappers who made quite the controversial impact like Tyler, The Creator did in 2011.
