Odd Future Billboard Cover Story

TwitPic: Matt Fastow

We brought you the cover last night, now here’s a preview of the Wolf Gang piece written by one of the Internets’ favorite scribes, Noz. Billboard is available on newsstands today. Get you some!

Tyler, a skinny 19-year-old with a booming voice and a slightly gapped overbite, sits cross-legged on an unmade bed sheet in a Philadelphia hotel room. Over a tray of cinnamon sticks and a half-closed MacBook he gushes about his dreams (winning a Grammy Award) and heroes (Pharrell Williams of the Neptunes).

For hours Tyler remains tethered to one spot on the bed, yet he seems to be moving constantly. His imagination travels as he pretends to be a secret agent, or that the room’s furniture is slowly coming to life. He shows off a sketchbook filled with his brightly colored marker drawings of doughnuts and cats, ideas for clothing designs and chicken-scratch poetry. Flipping to a portrait of a seemingly jolly, fat-faced man he pauses.

“That’s a serial killer,” he says. “That’s Tom, he’s crazy. He looks nice, but that’s how they usually are.”

  11. LOL says:

    be wary of anybody in the MEDIA that tells you what the ‘FUTURE’ is

  12. Art Vandalay says:

    I get that they’re doin someone unique, that’s great. But honestly this tyler the creator shit is fucking retarded. The beat’s weak, flows weak, and the lyrical content is spastic and immature. I like the Danny Ocean dude, but seriously this music just seems like a bunch of goofballs clownin around. The only people that seem to take this seriously is the media. I wanted to hit my head against a wall when YN was like “just listened to ‘ass milk’ by odd future, great track.” I mean WHAT THE FUCK!

    Just because something is unique doesn’t mean it is good. Fuck, I could start playing all shit backwards and bumpin it around. Yes it would be different, but it wouldn’t be fucking good

  13. Bong says:

    @Art Vandalay
    ^^Frank Ocean. And I think YN might have said “ass milk” was a great track, because it’s a great track. It just happens to be unique too. Just because it’s not for you doesn’t mean it’s any better or worse

  15. pienman says:

    huh….neva heard of these dudes

  16. jordan cohen says:

    is this how dudes were feeling in the 90s when zhigge, rough house survivors, etc were coming out?
    I’m not feeling any of this lameness. I’m worried that YN is feeling this. This AINT the future.
    and if it is, i’m about to tweet KRS & Freddie Foxxx to PM Dawn these clowns.
