Tyler the Creator BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Tyler the Creator has spent the past few days moving like a man rewriting his own biography in real time. Fresh off being named Apple Musics Artist of the Year for 2025 Apple Music and outlets like the LA Sentinel and the Los Angeles Times report he skipped the typical industry celebration and instead went back to Hawthorne High, his old school, where he once skated the halls and battled at lunch, to surprise roughly 370 seniors with iPad Pros and Apple Pencils. According to the LA Sentinel and AllHipHop, he told the students he turned down a fancy dinner in favor of giving back where it actually mattered to him and used the moment to hammer home his favorite theme: that a kid from a nowhere in between place could become one of rap’s defining figures if he stayed weird and worked obsessively.

At the same time he is pivoting into full movie-star roll-out mode. Rap Up, Revolt, and Apple Music interviews this week have him promoting his first feature film role in Josh Safdies Marty Supreme, out Christmas Day, where he plays Wally, a taxi driver and friend to Timothee Chalamets lead character. In an Apple Music sitdown with Ebro Darden, recounted by Rap Up, he revealed he shot key scenes just days after Chromakopia dropped, sick, exhausted, and filming at five in the morning upstate because as he put it he loves the game too much to slow down. Revolt reports that on another Apple Music appearance he used the press run to blast leak culture, calling out how early leaks of projects like his Wolf documentary shaped his almost paranoid protectiveness over his work, and he teased an on screen future playing whimsical but deadly villains, even name checking a Lemony Snicket style role and a modern Paid in Full as dream parts.

On the business side he is tying every move together. Music Notes on 95.1 The Beat and Coup de Main Magazine report he has announced a Marty Supreme themed Golf Wang capsule timed to the film release, packed with 1950s inspired varsity jackets and workwear pieces named after his Wally character, dropping through his site, app, and flagships. And hovering over all of it is the streaming data: school papers and Apple aligned coverage note Apple Music credits him with more than 4 and a half billion minutes streamed in the past year, Chromakopia smashing his own records, and surprise project Dont Tap the Glass debuting at number one in over 55 countries. Social chatter in the past few days has mostly amplified these confirmed headlines; any talk of surprise new music tied to the movie remains pure fan speculation with nothing verified by him or his camp.
