Why Tyler, the Creator is trending

Tyler, the Creator has been trending since the “Earthquake” rapper announced the release of the deluxe edition of his chart-topping, Grammy-winning 2021 project Call Me if You Get Lost for Friday, March 31.

And after releasing two new songs, “DOGTOOTH” and “Sorry Not Sorry,” the Odd Future founder has added another accolade to his resume after Call Me If You Get Lost became a record-breaking vinyl seller last year.

According to Chart Data, Tyler, the Creator had the best selling hip hop album on vinyl worldwide in 2022. “@tylerthecreator’s ‘CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST’ was the best selling hip hop album on vinyl worldwide in 2022 (via IFPI),” the post reads.

Following its release, Call Me If You Get Lost was a commercial success, debuting at No.1 on the Billboard 200. It also earned him his second US number-one album, and a Grammy for Best Rap Album at the 2022 Grammy Awards.

Call Me if You Get Lost: The Estate Sale is led by the track “Dogtooth,” a Tyler Oknonma-directed video that is out now.

Call Me if You Get Lost was the first album I made with a lot of songs that didn’t make the final cut,” Tyler wrote on Twitter. “Some of those songs I really love, and knew they would never see the light of day, so I’ve decided to put a few of them out.”

It’s been nearly a decade since the release of his debut album, Goblin. Since then, his career has only grown.
