“CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST” is a masterpiece.

I’ll have to admit that I wasn’t a huge Tyler, The Creator fan before this week. I never understood the appeal of Igor and I had merely admired FlowerBoy from a distance. When I saw the promotional material for Call Me If You Get Lost (CMIYGL henceforth) and listened to LUMBERJACK, I decided to give his music another shot.
