Tyler, the Creator has the top album in the country. The hook people are humming has nothing to do with it.
Tyler, the Creator‘s dancefloor-oriented left-turn “Don’t Tap The Glass” might be the top-selling album in the country, but the hook that the internet is humming in the days since its release is nowhere to be found in its 28-minute runtime.
A comically simple, AI-generated song snippet of big room EDM has stolen the thunder of the rapper and producer’s ninth studio album. Uploaded in the days before Tyler, the Creator’s release, “Don’t Tap The Glass! (Music Video)” purported to be a leak from the then-upcoming album. The video is less a breach in security than a modern rickroll, a bit of trolling for megafans who were as impatient as they were extremely online.
