Tyler, The Creator Freestyles Over Jacquees’ “No Validation”
In the aftermath of last year’s revelatory Scum Fuck Flower Boy, Tyler, The Creator has released his own versions of several pre-existing songs by other artists, among them Kids See Ghosts and Trouble featuring Drake. Now he’s delivered a remix of “No Validation” off Jacquees’ debut album 4275.
“yo so um here i like this song so i added a verse shout out to @Jacquees,” Tyler explained on Twitter before releasing the track. He’s named the remix “Gelato,” and it’s got Call Me By Your Name and That’s So Raven references. And after Universal quickly blocked his “Kids See Ghosts” remix from YouTube due to a copyright claim, Tyler uses the beginning of “Gelato” to quip, “Let’s hope they don’t take this one down, man.” Listen below.
