Tyler, the Creator's "Cherrybomb" Explained

- Cherrybomb is my favorite project by Tyler, the Creator for a variety of reasons. Although it is most controversial in terms of appeal, it is also one of his most creative projects concept and sound-wise. I’ve already explained the bastard goblin trilogy in previous videos, but now we’re at the point in Tyler’s discography where he really starts to lean into a certain direction which would cause a chain of events that would give him one of the greatest 3 album runs in hip hop.

Cherry Bomb is overhated and i absolutely hate that because it's one of Tyler's best albums imo.
Agreed!
All Tyler’s albums are the best
@@arkangel712 except goblin😶😶
True dat
it’s literally his greatest hits
I love how messy the sound is in this album it’s my favorite album of his I love how loud it is
Same, it’s really a rollercoaster
cherry bomb literally made his music swerve into what it sounds like today
Exactly
Yep there’s traces of the sound he created here on every album afterwards
Cherry bomb is literally so ahead of its time, and it never got the credit it deserved
I see you comment in almost every tyler the creator-relator video, mostly in his older tracks
That doesn't mean in any way cherry bomb is a good album
Pilot is my favorite track too. I just love the part when he says "i dont wanna crash anymore" its just so good
I love the bridge and when he says “I’m in first class but I feel like coach”
@@TechnicalDifficulties yessssss both parts are the best!
this song is always on repeat for me😭
I honestly don't know why people hate the song "CHERRY BOMB" so much, I really like the loud and chaotic sound of it.
Agreed, especially the second half but I love the explosive first half to
Second half is good I will say but the first halfs audiois as rough as a dogs arse
I like the idea of it as well as the entire Album, which is why it’s one of my favs, but this song just doesn’t hit with me. Reminds me of Bitch Suck Dick or Trashwang, where it’s kind of a throw away. The energy behind it though is insane.
How do you even manage to take something from that song? I can’t hear too much because of the insane amount of distortion in it
I feel like with less distortion, I could actually enjoy the track
I love cherry bomb, definitely my favorite of Tyler’s creations. Especially because it was such a bold move for him to release this in the first place. He was experimenting with the direction he wanted to go with in his career and decided to just do what he wanted. Really an inspiring album.
Also very well made video, keep up the good work 👍
Thank you, much appreciated 🙏
it was named cherry bomb because of the literal cherry bomb firework the explosiveness behind it spawned a lot of the outlandish sounding songs on the album given the name he was able to finally open up completely
He opened up emotionally more on flower boy creatively it started with Cherrybomb as he really allowed himself to make whatever he likes no matter how crazy
Nah it was named cherry bomb cuz greatest hits sounded kinda boring
@@BigWiggle-y5h😂

I cannot stress enough how much I love cherry bomb, without Tyler "finding his wings" we wouldn't have albums as polished as Igor. Also pilot is in like my top 5 i love it sm
Find Your Wings is genuinely my favorite song ever, both the instrumental and lyrics are so beautiful.
Might be a bit of a far fetched idea, but I think this is one of Tyler's best albums cause it's a perfect mix of Flower Boy Tyler, and Wolf/Goblin Tyler. It has the fast and crazy type of beats and raps from Wolf/Goblin Tyler, and it hits with smooth, poppy, serene music from Flower Boy Tyler and it's beautiful. Say what you want, I think this is his most creative album, and is WAYYY too overrhated
It's not too controversial it's not too soft it's good and in the middle it's sick I love the album and kinda like the fact it uses both types of eras
This is top 3 Tyler no matter how much people say it is isn’t. It has so many punk and N.E.R.D influences which is cool. People say the production of shitty even though I think it’s some of the best production I’ve heard. the beats are amazing, especially as a drummer and they are very unique. I like every song on the album. Even what people consider some of the worst songs on the album like cherry bomb are still my favorite. Blow my load, pilot, and Okaga CA definitely stand out the most to me and are some of my favorite Tyler songs in general. This is either my second or third favorite Tyler album.
Agreed. I think the project is so unique and diverse in its own right.
this is so real
real
You are underrated, clean cuts in between clips/ pictures and your audio is crisp. Hope one day you get more recognition.
Thank you 🙏

If u think bout it cherry bomb is just a experimentation album for his next 3 classic albums
“That’s the reason cherrybomb sounded so shifted” - Tyler, the Creator - MASSA
Cherry Bomb was the transition for Tyler's music. It was needed. The beginning was the old Tyler and going towards the end was showing us a shift was happening...We are going to look back and realize what a classic it really was....
it's like tyler wanted to try out numerous different things into one album and it became messy, as people would say. that's one of the reasons why i love it - it's unique, it's chaotic, it's tyler doing what HE wants to do for his musical career. i feel like despite it being so underrated, it's also highly favorited in my book next to goblin. "buffalo" is def my favorite song from the cherry bomb album, the aggressiveness the song expresses is favorable to me.
Agreed, I appreciated it mostly for its creativity and musical versatility. It feels more like a collection of songs
Jojo and Tyler.
@@jack-videogame9533 yessir
I like how in the sorry not sorry video the cherrybomb tyler does not apologize for anything
I love that
@@TechnicalDifficultiessame with IGOR since he was the one who needed an apology
@@OnedeC529i like to think that IGOR is the background singer because we can hear him scream at the end of SORRY NOT SORRY like ARE WE STILL FRIENDS
crazy how well done not only the topic and delivery is presented but the editing as well. Keep it up man!
Thank you, appreciate it!
looking back at it
Wolf Trilogy:
Bastard
Wolf
Goblin
Cherry Bomb is an explosion and the next step for his career
The New Era:
Flower Boy
IGOR
Call Me If You Get Lost
“fuck traditions stop impressing the dead”
which leads to his next album
Chromakopia, he abandoned his two year album gap and got rid of his 10th track tradition. his most vulnerable as well.
This is EXACTLY how i see it
why did i get a ad that had tyler the creator in it before this video 😨
That’s crazy
you need to continue this series, genuinely hooked on your vids man keep it up
Thank you, appreciate it and I have two new additions to the series coming in May 💸
I recently got the cherry bomb cd, and one of its extras "yellow" is in my top 3 CB, it also transitions soooooooo perfectly into flower boy
criminally underrated. i have so many good memories with this album.
Same
2nd jojo pfp I've seen in this comment section.
This channel needs more attention
Thank you, appreciated 🙏
This is literally one of the best album’s Tyler has released.
Agreed the F.B.I.
Cherry Bomb is my favorite album from T. This is Tyler killing the horrid actions he talked about throughout the Wolf Trilogy. That explosive album is a release of that left over angst. That edge of his previous self. Tyler does not regret making the album, as seen in the “Sorry Not Sorry” music video where Cherry Bomb apologies for nothing. This was Tyler’s response to his emotions on a high note despite the brash sounds. In short, Tyler did indeed create.
Cherry bomb was so dope it got hated
When I first listened to cherrybomb it made me mad cause every single was so good and I was like “I can’t just save every song in the album 😭”
0:36
This!!
Speaking of, this can be reflected in the SORRY, NOT SORRY music video as all of the Tylers say something except for Cherry Bomb (and Igor, but for two very different reasons).
Of course
People always hate on cherry bomb but every tyler album is good
True
His best album hands down
The literal song cherry bomb (not album the song) sounds like something Samuel from the album wolf would kinda like have his mood be in idk if it’s too confusing to explain
sometimes i forget that Tyler is almost bald
Great video, I think you should double up on pop filters for your mic, though. A fitted pop filter on the mic itself combined with a gooseneck pop filter in front of it can help cut the overly bass-y popping you're getting in your recording.
I never enjoyed Cherry Bomb tbh but I do love the concept and I appreciate it. I think it was his turning point and I love it! I don’t rlly like the music but I do think it’s a very important album in his career!
5:30 faunins
So Awesome! I love your editing, seen all the tyler vids. Can't wait until you make it big!
Thank you, appreciate it 🙏
This was also the album for me that got me into Tyler. I love cherry bomb so much because it really was a transition into his other music like igor or CMIYGL.
Cherry bomb is so underrated it genuinely hurts :(
Agreed :(
@@TechnicalDifficulties *:( intensifies*
NEVER SEEN A MORE CORRECT VIDEO ON TH-cam GOOD SHIT
Great video, can't wait for The estate sale, looks really good
Thank you, I’m glad I’m doing all the albums in order lmao
5:00 “packing your bags and flying to the moon” idk if it’s just me, but packing your bags reminds me of cmiygl, so like, what if his next album has something to do with/is a metaphor for flying to the moon. idk, just a thought/connection i made.
Brilliant job here lad, I agree w u this is my fav discography by Tyler fr it’s overhated but slaps yo ha
Thank you, much appreciated 🤙
(unnecessary internet opinion no one asked for alert)
I love all of cherry bomb except "find your wings" and thats just because its so non-experimental in a way. It just sounds like jazz. And i dont even like good jazz so to hear a mostly generic saxaphone-y jazz piece in the middle of all these fresh ideas has always been off-putting to me. I wouldnt listen to it if a respected jazz composer made it, im not gonna listen to it simply because Tyler made it lol. Itd be like if he wanted to branch out and try to make a boom-bap song and just replicated a nas flow on a preemo style beat. If other people fuck with that song though, right on. Great video!
I found a disc in my moms car a couple of months ago in a old cd album but it had some recent ones too and one of them really popped out to me by design, I didn’t get to listen to it but now I finally know what it was lol
That’s awesome!
I’ve always said cherry bomb was his most important album… flower boy, Igor, and call if you get lost afterwards 🤷🏾♂️🔥. It was just testing waters
Cherry Bomb is a really unique album. Something this different is bound to be polarizing. Definitely not deserving of the hate.
When you speak you draw out your elongated words.
Damn.
Cherrybomb is basically like the teenage years of Tyler’s career
Good analogy, technically bastard and goblin is though
But bastard and goblin are more like a chaotic child with family problems while in Cherrybomb Tyler is going through a confused phase trying to understand himself
i just listened to cherry bomb today and i was wondering what cherry bomb truly meant, glad i found this video !
Thank you!
After Relistening to cherry bomb for awhile, I found myself falling in love with it
Cherry bomb is where he throws everything to the wall and see what sticks
Exactly
i just found this channel and its safe to say that ill be staying:)
Welcome aboard ;)
Smuckers is my favorite tyler song ever, it’s straight 🔥
Agreed
My favorite album actually
Same
6 year age gap is huge depending on ref point. 12 year old vs 18 is huge
Cherry Bomb is peak music wise, CMIYGL is peak personal wise
I love the style and explosiveness of this album
Same
this vid needs more attention ong. also cherry bomb is a W album.
Thank you! Agreed
This one’s my number 2 Tyler album! Not quite as good as IGOR for me, but I don’t really get tired of this one!
6:00
Can you listen to the Cherry Bomb album? 99.9% Will fail!
I really fw CherryBomb it reminds me of a time in my life when I was younger and nothing made any f’n sense.I love this album. . .like ALOT
AW NAW BOY DONT CUT THAT WOOD
I’m honest my dad listened to this album when it came out. He hated it! But me there is a small love for cherry bomb. I love rock but it’s the huge change in different genres that gets you first your vibing on find your wings then the loud drums of CHERRY BOMB scares you.
This album from him is probably still my favourite or top 2. Every time i listen i think nope. This is his best, for me! It’s so good even after he dropped his Christmas Grinch EP or flower boy he came back and released all the instrumentals!
An underrated song off that album was that Latifa song ,Also one of my personal favorites off one of his most underrated albums.
yess
Cherry bomb is the closest thing to normal Tyler just wanting to change his style of music and grow to be a bigger artist and I actually like it being a new Tyler fan and it’s super under rated
you described PILOT so accurately. My fav as well alongside KEEP DA O'S
Cherry bomb is a creative chaos, Tyler experimenting with all these sounds came out as a explosion of music in my ears. A great explosion. A bipolar mess
i like the album
I should listen to that album then . Because i would like to see an artist like Tyler incorporate all those genres in the Cherry bomb. It's reminds me of Steely Dan and other artist before him. Nice
I listened to pilot on a long ass plane flight late at night, and let me just say that is was one of the most transcendent musical experiences I have ever had.
cherry bomb is such a nice transition from wolf to flower boy i like how they are kinda mixed
I'm glad you like Cherry Bomb as much as i do, the album is really great, the songs are really good, i don't understand how people hated the album so much when it came out, i'm glad more people are listening to it tho
(And Yeezus is also as good, they go so well together, and they almost seem like they were made together)
Kanye and Tyler did collaborate on this project, and Cherrybomb came out only two years after Yeezus so the influence was definitely there
I feel like every song on cherry bomb holds its place except arguably Keep da O's.
His best? Maybe not. But his most artistic and creative album for sure.
100%
Funny that the whole thing on Cherry Bomb (and on Tyler's themes in general) is like "Be yourself dont let people change you" and yet he made BUFFALO which was like... the *ah, people will like this shit* song
I love find your wings, 2SEATER, OKAGA CA, Smuckers, Perfect
Good choices
i was so surprised to find out that cherry bomb is hated. it does take a few listen to really get into, but it has sm good songs like deathcamp and fy/p
Finally! Someone who doesn’t shit on Cherry Bomb.
Cherry Bomb was honestly the album that got me into Tyler, The Creator.
It was raw, it was unapologetic, it was different from everything I heard at the time and I wanted more of it!
Been a fan ever since!
2 Seater ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Six years age difference is HUGE when the one that’s younger is still underage.
I LOVE PILOT BROOOOO
My favorite Tyler track in general ✈️
i been missing out all these years i just now started listening to tyler and honestly my favorite song is fucking young
I really like Cherry Bomb for the fact that it is just so much fun to listen to. I get bored listening to Igor because it feels all the same and it is quite slow. But Cherry Bomb is a different and explosive turn every song making listening to it just fun. Oh and you're hella underrated, here before you blow up. Awesome work man.
Thank you, much appreciated 🙏 and yeah I agree although I think IGOR is extremely emotional. Some projects are meant to be digested in different ways
Told my family to wake up because you uploaded a Cherrybomb video. They kicked me out.
I love these comments lmao
I'm a little late bro but I love your vids bro I've been binging them!!
Ay thank you much appreciated 🙏 helps out the channel a lot
I LOVE CHERRY BOMB THANK U SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS.
No problem 🙏
I'd put Cherry Bomb over Goblin & Bastard anyday. Idk if it's better than Wolf and I don't think that it's better than his last 3 albums but don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it. There's multiple songs off of Cherry Bomb that I remember the lyrics to by heart. It's an 8/10 to me, there is not one Tyler album that I can say I "Hate"
you have 8 minutes to convince me to give it a listen
Bet
Buffalo is one of my favourite Tyler songs
It’s a top10 😊
cherry bomb is in my top 3 fav tyler albums it does not deserve all the hate it gets
Agreed!
YESSSS thank you for bringing this to light 😭 🙏
i discovered tyler through cmiygl, but when i listened to this album and watched the documentary on it, i became a fan of tyler
Hell yeah that’s awesome!
Cherry bomb is half bad songs and half amazing songs. It’s very odd and I love it.
It has like one bad song and thats run 😭
I love tyler so much
Tbh I feel like a lot of people say they like this album because Tyler said it’s his favorite or to be different/edgy. AKA to try to sound like a “true fan” with a non-basic answer to the question of what your favorite T album is. The album has okay tracks but most of them are mixed absolutely terribly. If they were engineered or mastered in a way that actually complimented their composition I’d understand but if we’re being real half of the album is borderline unlistenable. Pretending to like it does not change that. Tyler grew from this album and it was definitely step to get him to take music more seriously (because of the hate) and I appreciate the album for that. But I won’t pretend it was an amazing piece of work or my fave album (and even though I’ll never know for sure, I suspect many are capping when they say they like it). SMUCKERS is a classic tho
na i actually do think of it as my favorite it literally dropped when i was a jr in hs and the aesthetic that it brung is still relevant to me to this day it has sum of my top 10 songs from him and it was the first album that i actually bought by him (physical cd copy) with the poster its the best era to me n i dont even care about being a “true fan” ngl but i get what you’re saying
when flower boy explantion coming out? im so excited
May 1st
For me this is a classic album. And undeniably important for tyler’s musical direction.
