Tyler, the Creator with J'na Jefferson

Tonight's Musical Guest, Today

He's gone from causing a national panic to winning Grammys and selling high-end perfumes, all while putting on some of the most innovative stage performances of the 21st century. It's TYLER, THE CREATOR week!
Joining the show to school us elder millennials on our most modern artist to date is music and culture journalist J'na Jefferson (Rolling Stone, Uproxx)! The guys and J'na make sense of Tyler's wild early career, including a 2011 Fallon performance for the ages featuring an exorcism. A 2017 Colbert performance pays homage to Soul Train and captures the hard left-turn of Flower Boy's direction and production. Tyler wins a Grammy in 2020 and performs on the show with Charlie Wilson and Boyz II Men amid a burning suburbia landscape. And a windstorm set piece on the 2021 BET Awards blows (pun intended) everyone away.
