It seems like old social media posts have a way of coming back to haunt us! A series of scathing tweets from Tyler The Creator, dating back to 2011, have recently resurfaced, reigniting a past feud with rapper Wale.
Harsh Words from the Past
In the unearthed posts on X (formerly Twitter), Tyler The Creator didn’t hold back, labeling Wale a “failure” and stating he “really hates” him and his music. One tweet read, “I Still Ain’t Sh*t. Could Totally Become A Failure, Or Like Swale Tomorrow. Gotta Stay Focused And Brainwash More People.”
He followed up with another post expressing his frustration: “But F*ck, I Really Hate WALE, So The Fact That He’s Right Before Us On That List Makes Me Really Bitchy And Mad. Like This; MAD.”
A Potential Online Diss?
The resurfacing of these tweets comes shortly after Wale posted a cryptic message on X: “Shoutout to black people who love black people.” This message followed Tyler liking a tweet that criticized his white fans for lacking interest in learning about Black art.
In response to Tyler’s actions, fans dug up these older, controversial posts, which also contained what some perceived as racist and anti-Black statements from the early 2010s. This all happened after Tyler shared a tribute to the late D’Angelo, and some fans in the comments seemed less engaged with the discussion about the legendary singer.
Wale’s New Album
Meanwhile, Wale has been busy announcing his eighth studio album, “Everything Is a Lot,” set to release on November 14. This project marks his debut with Def Jam and is expected to delve into recent changes in his personal life, as he shared with Billboard that the music tackles “how heavy everything is in the world around me, my personal life, and the industry.”
