CHROMAKOPIA: Tyler, The Creator's Leap of Faith into Vulnerability

Описание: Throughout my life, all the groups I’ve been a part of, the relationships I’ve made, the people who matter the most to me… it’s rare that I ever felt truly, known, or seen. And I think that’s common. A great writer talks about a shared loneliness of the soul all humans are plagued with. A shared feeling that… nobody, really cares about us. It makes us think that we need to have merit and value in order to earn love, that we need to be interesting, to be appreciated.

Tyler, The Creator has always been there for me in those moments. Not just that I feel like he’s someone who thinks the same way, but he rose above that struggle and has proven to everybody just how much value he has. He’s proven everyone wrong. And listening to his music, I want to do the same! I want to work harder, I want to achieve, so I can earn that love from others, and yet, the more I do that, the more I look to Tyler when I am met with more of a disconnect from others.

And maybe, we feel different from others… not because we don’t have enough merit… but because we’re too focused on earning our value rather than allowing others to show us how much we already have. Let's explore CHROMAKOPIA and how it teaches us to, once and for all, be vulnerable with those around us. If we can wrestle with Tyler's journey, we may go on our own too.

Thanks so much for watching. Every subscriber/viewer means a lot to me, and I appreciate every like and comment. Let me know what you think about the video or the album and I'd love to have a discussion in the comments! Music is meant to be discussed to assimilate ideas and to grow as people.

I am a Christian and student and I made this channel when I was in high school. I started this channel because I love talking about music (specifically hip hop) and given that the genre seems to be going downhill, I want to be part of the community that preserves the expectation of great music and dissecting what makes a beautiful record. Dealing with a lack of friends to discuss these matters with, I hoped to start my own community that loves music just as I do, as well as to provide a unique perspective as a follower of Christ that also appreciates this community. I appreciate everyone who watches and I am truly happy to see anybody comment their thoughts on a project I talk about.

Put "FOREVER IS TOO LONG" as your comment if you read the description!

As always, thank you very much for watching and taking time out of your day to discuss music with me, God bless. Isaiah 55:8-12
