- As hip-hop continues to eclipse rock as the most popular musical genre, Tame Impala stands out as a rock outfit that’s collaborated with and inspired rappers. One of the Kevin Parker-led Australian psychedelic rock group’s biggest and earliest hip-hop supporters is Tyler, The Creator, who also introduced the band’s music to Frank Ocean. Other fans and collaborators include Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, Kanye West, Travis Scott, and Rihanna, who covered Tame Impala’s “New Person, Same Old Mistakes” on 2016’s 'ANTI.'

kevin parker is such a legend, amazing lyricist, amazing instrumentalist
th-cam.com/video/GJmcJwx6vVc/w-d-xo.html
and most of all, amazing vocalist
Basic vocalist, basic lyricist, god instrumentalist
Fuck up dude 😂😂😂 beanie wearing dude
also here's a vid th-cam.com/video/gnvwRlSaX3Y/w-d-xo.html 💙
Tame Impala's bass lines are really something impressive
Yeah Kevin definitely plays it more like a guitar which is refreshing
I agree. Very McCartney-esque Circa 1966-67
Emik No Best bass line?
@@jimmybob5541 most of the time it is a guitar run through an octave effect, like what the White Stripes did with Seven Nation Army
MeanMisterWalrus damn definitely with the first track on innerspeaker. Very revolver-pepper vibe on it’s not meant to be.
Tame Impala, Foster the People, MGMT are all clear influences to the american pop shift in the last 10 years.
Jay Jay foster the people suck but I agree with the other 3
2*
Autodidactfortunes bruh foster the people dont suck, whatchu on?
Jay Jay OMG, I love foster the people so much!
Mild high club?
How did Tame Impala become popular with rappers?
Rappers started doing psychedelics, end of story.
pretty much lol, raps in a progressive psych wave rn
Alex H it’s not white culture but I’ll let u feel great 😂
Steev 7 black ppl create the basis of rock and now it’s white ppl music 😂
Music still has to have something though even if your're on psychedelics
chidorirasenganz by that argument eastern music African music and ‘white’ Europeans laid down the basics for ALL modern popular music. That’s literally ALL modern western music including jazz, blues,rock’n’roll and hip hop. In fact, pretty much after Beethoven and the likes, music has only changed aesthetically. We typically use the same chord progressions and so on. In other words, don’t go there. I like to refer to it all as human culture and not any specific races culture.
The Album “Currents”, is a damn classic.
Excellent album
SneakOne_ really though
Facts
It's a damn bad album, never heard something worse, lonerism is the real tame impala
@@MvsG18 It's not bad but it sounds very pop. Lonerism > Currents tho
Tame Impala isn’t a band, it’s actually all just Kevin Parker himself. Tame Impala enlists the help of an Australian psychedelic band called Pond when he’s touring or playing at another event.
It literally told you that.
@@dogmosatchmo not really
THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. I love Pond but never made the connection.
Dogmo Satchmo in the video it kept mentioning how tame impala is a band and kept referring to tame impala as “they” when in reality it’s just one guy who writes and composes all of the music himself
0:35 - she literally says it right there
u just wanna correct people cuz u like correcting people, even if there's nothing to correct
Lmao I love how they used the “Kanye as a Tame Impala song” at the end of the video
Olivia part 2 is out now
Uf you don’t feel like platino white a cat... that’s racism
Have yall ever seen Wreck It RAAAAALLLPPPHHHHH
y'all forgot the miguel waves (tame impala remix. one of kevin parkers most euphoric songs ever
DakaONER94 Yeah, that was absolutely genius
Thank you for this. Now I have a new amazing song to listen to.
How is there SO much Kev content I've still not managed to hear. Thanks man. Feel free to throw a few more my way. Only You with Theo is my fave.
facts
What about Gotta get a grip with Mick Jagger?
Yet again tyler the genius was on it ever since.
Nose blunt that man is an actual angel. I’m convinced. Tyler deserves more.
Kevin Parker is the GOAT musician of this generation. Without a doubt. The guy is so musically gifted..
Mark v. V. Kanye West needs to step aside
What does GOAT mean?
@@jmarsden73 Yeah, I guess we have to hit up urban dictionary.
@@lockergr ohh right thanks man :D
Lmao not even. He IS an amazing musician but not THE greatest. Id put him up there with Damon Albarn and Andre 3000
Currents is a masterpiece. Love all 3 albums but Currents just speaks to me on another level. One of the greatest pop albums ever made.
Fucking agreed my man. I swear it feels like that album speaks directly to me sometimes with how I live my life and what I need to change.
@@stev6963 Agreed. The Slow Rush is becoming my second favorite as well. Both are incredible.
They're neck n neck. Currents & slow rush.. but currents was better live.
MAN WHEN ARE WE GETTIN THE DAMN ALBUM KEVIN
Flash Giordani IKR I’VE BEEN WAITING LIKE OMFG
The longer it takes the more perfect it is. That's why Kanye and Frank are also taking long
Josh yea ik but the waiting sucks but yes you’re correct but i know Frank is gonna give us something phenomenal just like Kevin
@@Josh-stewie Kanye's "music" is forced. Making it trash
Flash Giordani saw tame on june 8th (last date of the tour) in london and kevin said next time he plays london he’ll “have a lot of new songs to play” so it’s really just a matter of waiting a little longer now
It makes me cringe how everyone is trying their best to one up each other on who's the biggest Tame Impala fan or trying to show how early they started listening to him
2010 for me.
Bro... your just mad you didnt know tame impala was one guy, bro.
100nujabes bro
Same lol it’s obviously me
@@Jimmy-uy1xm bro..
idk it feels weird calling them a "rock band". They're more of a psychedelic alternative group. But either way its sf nice to see rappers appreciating talented artists in other genres
it’s not a group
I just saw them in concert - they played every song with guitars, drums and bass. They’re a rock band. Rock doesn’t always sound like Led Zepplin. Currents has more electric guitar on it than Sgt Pepper does. But no one would say that Sgt Pepper isn’t a rock album
The studio mixes maybe... The live performances tho are oooh so rock inspired and heavy.. totally recommend trying to catch a show sometime
Tame Impala USED to be rock
Their first 2 albums are easily rock albums
*Rap/rock collaboration* is like a moon eclipse, we rarely see it but when we do it's always special 🎵
*linkin park feat jay-z* was a masterpiece I recommend u check it
Nu-Metal sucked I don’t know wtf you’re talking about
@@caroline6138 yeah "numb encore" by jayZ and linkin park was an amazing song..Rip Chester
Why the fuck you lying
Why you always lying
Oh my god stop fucking lying
@@nanayawberko3212 you still stuck there ?!
That meme died 3 years ago BTW
Y’all forgot about Tame Impala x Miguel. Their collab was unforgettable
Big facts smh how could they miss that one???
I’m so mad that this wasn’t mentioned
YES
I thought he just made a remix of waves
>"yall forgot"
>"unforgettable"
choose one
asap rocky uses their music the best as always he’s a genius
He’s fucking trash you just follow everyone else
@@ballersonly5443 stfu dumbass
A genius for an awful sample of Tame Impala? No he’s taking genius and manipulating it to get girls and role play as an artist
Ballers Only loser
Ballers Only stfu go listen to your generic trap
A girl I kinda crushed on showed me tame impala back in 2017 my senior year. She made a playlist of the best songs on currents and now those songs take me back to my last couple months of high school.
kevin parker issa fucking legend glad they’re getting the recognition they’re getting
Skeletons by Travis Scott is written by Tame Impala and it is one of my favorite songs off of ASTROWORLD
Don’tMakeMeGangGangYou we all no that Astro thunder is the g maybe even coffee bean
Bro that song is my intro to Kevin, I thank all the people who suggested to check tame Impala on the skeletons yt comment section, now iam crazy about tame Impala ❤😇
I like when artists from different genres have mutual respect for one another. I like when HUMANS have mutual respect for OTHER HUMANS! Makes me happy to be a living breathing organism. #love
Josh Nippleton are u high but respect tho
@@nmasijika7557 ahhh shit! This always happens. See, the version of me that's not high never leaves corny hashtags out. Sorry you had to witness that.
@Marilyn Mercury Love I think is overrated nowadays. There should be more respect for one another.
Marilyn Mercury black people get along just fine what are you talking about? The news? I bet it’s the news smh
Hey bro just want to let you know that I respect that you respect we both mutually respect humans. Keep on respectin' ✊🏻
if rocky went all out and made a collab album with kevin with frank and tyler features the world would go crazy
shoota _ That would be the actual perfect combo, I feel like they’d all take each other’s ideas to the next level. Love em all
id say travis asap and kevin would make a dope ass album
Its 2019 yall late asf but its all good
Give this man a cookie
This comment has me weak lmao
like most ppl with the band lol
never too late to get into an artist. people explore music at different rates.
@@gabelebabe8644 true
Kevin Parker said they aren’t a rock band just saying
TheFernanae12 they don’t sound like one either... Tame Impala’s style is very funky, psychedelic and melodic... very vintage.
He said that because they are not a band. He makes the music completely alone and then performs it with a band that is already existing
NVO BEATS
Yeah it sounds more like indie music
Currents isn't a rock album at all, but Lonerism, Innerspeaker, and the Tame Impala EP are definitely (psychedelic) rock albums
@@guenthersteiner8163 Right you are
Tame impala looks like the guy who sold me bad acid outside the tame impala concert
bandmemes
noonecaresalex bruh actual acid is easier to get than fake acid. Jus coz u didn’t have a great trip don’t mean it is bad
Crispo Uk r/woosh
@@noonecaresalex bro ngl i must have been high as fuck this is such as obvious woosh lmaoo
Crispo Uk lmaooo
Kalis Uchis “Tomorrow” is hands down my favorite collab
Lonerism is a gift from the Gods 💯💯💯😩
They all are
Just Cade Big Facts
Fake fans say currents is the best album 😂
@@CrucifiedinChrist Not the best, but still a masterpiece with some of the best songs. Lonerism is the best, I think.
Lonerism is their best album. I miss the sets they were touring with that album and Live Versions.
Honestly alternative/ indie music is killing it right now. It's refreshing
Dogen70 agree 100% it’s nice to take a break from all the trap stuff that sounds the same
Kevin Parker/Tame Impala is our generations Pink Floyd/Led Zepp/ Beatles, just a legend is my point
Nicolas Gularte the doors are the goat for me
AGREED
Hey daddy
I watched it man. It was good. When you coming down to look at the place?
@@dmitryteseniar846 ill be leaving my house by 11:10
You know your a true art genius when so many famous people constantly use your work
I love Same ol'mistakes/new person same ol'mistakes
Dang y'all skipped over the Kali Uchis collab huh
Smh
@@yesimtakeoffcantstopmenow2663 They mentioned the Theophilus London tracks which are not hip hop either. Also, the SZA track(s), the Rihanna cover etc.
And the Miguel collaboration... unforgivable
Let’s not forget the video of Joey Bada$$ dancing to “The Less I Know The Better”
Tame Impala invited A$AP Rocky to play with them at Lowlands festival and it was amazing!
You already know ASAP needed some good music on an acid trip and found tame impala and just fell in love
You’re missing out if youre not listening to tame impala
nah I’m doin just fine not listening
@@nickydarling5208 same here 🙌
Yeah no it’s just bad elevator music
Patrick Forbes what do you listen to?
Comments like this make me even more grateful I don't listen to him
Can y’all do this on Hiatus Kaiyote? They’ve been sampled by Kendrick, The Carter’s, Anderson Paak and more! They’ve even collaborated with Paak!
I've been thinking the absolute same thing like yoooo.... They need to recognize Hiatus fo real.
tyler the creator was the first rapper i’ve heard reference them 🤷🏽♀️
Suicide Boys I no longer fear the razor that gaurds my heel
I feel so refreshing Everytime I listen to tame Impala
I feel more happy
I lowkey hate how everyone said it was weird music when i showed it to others now everyone is on the wave 🙄
ong fuck people
@@CantGuardBron yeah fk you
well it is weird, but its also amazing. Most people are too afraid to like new weird music so they wait until it becomes popular.
kevin save my life back in 2021 ill respect him regardless forever
I got into tame impala after the first ATLANTA trailer donald Glover walking jamming... 2016 damn
Same that shit was fire I search for that song for a while they really good
was looking for someone to mention that
This is why I love him so much, a genuis...traveled all the way to Barcelona just to see him. 😭
Tame Impala is the reason I feel I was born in the right generation
And The Weeknd
what's so amazing is I love both genres so much and when Currents came out Tame became my favorite band and then I go back and do all this research and find out all my favorite hip hop artists have been taking inspiration from Kevin's stuff. He's so special I love it
I been tryna put people onto Tame for the longest time. Btw he also produced "Tomorrow" by Kali Uchis
We need Tame Impala x Cudi
OMG YES MY 2 FAVORITE ARTISTS
Humming too a bass line
I don't think my jaws ready to sing along
YES my 2 faves
@@jadeginn3138 OMG SAMEEE
@@linnh940 YES
Australia has had some amazing bands over the years, Tame Impala, ACDC, Midnight Oil, Jet, INXS, etc.
Kevin Parker looks like Jesus.
he might just be, cause the music he provides us are blessings
no Father John Misty is the jesus
he is jesus
Jesus looks like Kevin Parker
is he not
Been listening to Kevin Parker since 2012. As a black dude people think I'm weird for listening to Tame Impala, I feel like some people aren't cultured enough to like something different than the stereotypically acclaimed "normal".
Sooo happy Tame Impala has been gaining the attention they deserve lately💜💜💜
Naré Kay he deserves**
Kevin is the only one who makes the music. He performs live with pond
Barack Obama Gaming Don’t be that guy
Ballers Only on me💯😭
@@ballersonly5443 lol
I’m in love with Tame Impala
I love tame impala and I’ve loved them for the past 2 years
Miguel & tame impala on wave 🌊 everything💕
YESSS I love Tame impala rock and rap has got to be one of the best collaborations
3:45 im actually still crying. this would've been the best coachella of my life and i missed it.
Good to see genres mixing with each other
Just seen tame impala live at Glastonbury and I can say one of the best lives shows I’ve witnessed 👌🏼
YESSSSS THEY ARE GETTING THE FAME THEY DESERVE 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
TAEKOOK he is*
TAEKOOK tame impala is just one person :/
TAEKOOK yikes
Tuff
Ur hella late bruh
Add Lil Yachty to this list, he collaborated with Kevin on Breathe Deeper and now has his own album that’s based on Psychedelics
Mentioned maxo, but forgot about SuicideBoys!!!! I no longer fear the razor guarding my heel III
Travis put me on to tame impala in that narduwar interview
Saw them live again last week after so long and they’re still incredible
He*. It’s just Kevin
The Lyrics Are so hard to describe, they're so good and true and symbolic, he's the greatest rock lyricist of our time.
We need another rocky x impala collab asap
Yung activist definitely
nah
I... I see what you did there yung
I'm glad I had the chance to hear TI on Hipster Runoff Radio back when Elephant was released. It really enhanced my entheogenic experiences that made me who I am today. I'm just a big old hippie.
When you realize that Tame Impala isn't a band, it's just Kevin Parker's stage name
tame impala is such a classic, i didn’t realize how big they’ve been in hip hop. i got their currents record on vinyl when i was in high school
I LOVE SOOOO MANY SONGS IN THIS VID. THANK YOU TAME IMPALA
I love how much appreciation Pouya is showing towards him on Instagram, it's so wholesome.
No mention of the Kevin and Kali Uchis collab... blatant disrespect
They skipped on a couple. Its that one, the one with Miguel, and although they mentioned mark ronson as djs they did make a song called daffofils that was amazong but i guess they were focused on rap/hiphop/rnb collabs
Tomorrow?
Holy shit for real?! What song is that?
I'm genuinely think discovering tame Impala/ Kevin parker is one of the greatest things that ever happened to me 😭
Okay now give recognition to Little Dragon, and hiatus kaiyote
Kevin Parker has been my dad since i was in 6th grade 💕
To me, Tame 's three albums are to music as the LOTR trilogy is to film. Just in a league of their own.
Well, they sure both are overrated af and for people that dont know any better, people who dont really see through the masses of modern culture
YES BRO. IVE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE THIS
Yikes, there's always someone saying this about any decent art project, kind of a meme.
Im so happy for Kevin getting all this love! You deserve it brother, keep putting in that work 💯
Yo I know miguel isn't RnB but that Miguel Waves remix is awesome song
this is why i live for Kevin Parker
Kevin finally getting some recognition on here.
Tyler had them on a summer mix or mentioned them in interview back in the day and since then I haven't stopped hearing about them
How did I not hear about that Kendrick x Tame Impala song?!!!
OMG ITS WHY THE SUNDRESS PROD IS SO AMAZING
Tame Impala’s Current should have won Album of the Year at the Grammys. But ofc Grammy tone deaf and snubbed them. There was no one fresher and different in that period.
la knight!
la knight yeah!
The less I know the better is forever a mood.
cmon guys, it was gonna happen...
eventually
This is so underated
AAAAAAAAHHHH
yep, had to wait until
the moment
was right
So let it happen
UGH THIS WAS SO GOOD
Tame impala is so underrated I’ve been listening to them since they first started they’re one of my fave bands I just love their music frfr
3 Reasons:
Let It Happen
The Less I Know The Better
Brand New Person Same Old Mistakes
Been listening to tame for 8+ years. Pretty cool seeing it/him transcend.
Currents is the most beautiful album ever
yes but lonerism
skyefilm yes but innerspeaker
Thanks for putting me on tame Impala I going to dive into their music
Carti x Tame Impala would be intresting
Fred Ntware yeeee
i hope theres a carti x tame impala song on WLR
Never heard of Tame Impala until a few mobths ago where i was browsing Spotify and I heard one of their songs and fell in love. Im a huge Tame Impala fan and ever since then, ive been seeing Tame Impala everywhere; Coachella, refrenced on Logic's book Supermarket, and other places. I didnt know how much Tame was involved with rap/r&b until now. Kevin Parker is really a legend.
Rihanna fans will say that Rihanna made it first 😐
domo535 bitch WHERE? Stop the bullshit 🙄
I heard the Rihanna version and once I heard it was a cover I immediately searched for the original and have been listening to that ever since lol
noooooooooooooooooo same.
@@sanrafaeldeguanapalo938 I worked at a Buffalo Wild WIngs in Inglewood, whenever that song came on everyone sang it and didnt believe me at first when I said it was a cover smh.
domo535 no one ever said that.
I discovered Tame Impala at the dispensary back in 2017 😂😂 I was in the waiting room & they were play 'New Person Same Old Mistakes' on the speakers right next to me .. I looked them up right when I got home while rolling up. 💨🍃 Been listening to them ever since.
If Tame impala is a rock band, Led Zeppelin is a folk band
austin big facts
austin lmaoo
Neither band can be pigeonholed into one genre really, but tame impala does make rock music (lucidity, elephant, HFGW) just as led zeppelin has made some folk music (the battle of evermore, gallows pole, bron-y-aur stomp)
austin how tf is it not rock.
Gi-Gi-Gi-Gia Camole does someone need a hug?
Great and informative credits to Kevin Parker, Hillary. Thanks "Genius" news!
Tame impala low key one of the best artist of the 2010's
Shoutout Kevin Parker for creating tame impala he’s produced some truly incredible music looking forward to the new album
A bunch of hypebeast just watched this video and are going out to buy tame impala shirts now..
omg i seriously never realized how popular tame impala was in the hip hop world 😯
