Flower Boy is Tyler, The Creator's Aquemini, or his 808's & Heartbreak — his auteur album. Where he once stood as the modern personification of hip-hop's Punk spirit, with his 4th album Tyler made the rare transition into a creative who's vision is bigger than the genre in which he was incubated. With it's dazzling synths, intricate arrangements and a noticeably more mature subject matter, Flower Boy has a claim as one of the great 'transitional' albums in recent memory. Eat the cockroaches. Save the Bees.
