DESCRIPTION Finally available for everyone on white vinyl. Comes with 20-page-booklet.Official Chromakopia LP pressing. Gatefold package with embossed detail, 2 LPs on opaque white vinyl and a 20-page 12 x 12” booklet. Contains all Chromakopia songs, including “Mother.”CHROMAKOPIA is the eighth studio album by Tyler, the Creator, released on October 28, 2024 via Columbia Records. As with his earlier works, Tyler took full creative control—writing, producing, and arranging the entire record himself. Musically, CHROMAKOPIA blends hip-hop, R&B, jazz, and soul, evoking the warmth and introspection of Flower Boy and Igor. Guest appearances include Daniel Caesar, Doechii, GloRilla, LaToiya Williams, Lil Wayne, Lola Young, Santigold, ScHoolboy Q, Sexyy Red, and Teezo Touchdown, with Playboi Carti featured on physical editions.Conceptually, the album unfolds like a personal diary narrated by Tyler’s mother, Bonita Smith, which gives it an intimate, autobiographical tone. Thematically it revolves around memory, identity, fear, fame, and self-discovery. Songs such as “Noid” explore paranoia and the pressures of public life, while “Like Him” reflects on Tyler’s complicated relationship with his absent father. The album’s structure—marked by abrupt transitions, contrasting moods, and stylistic shifts—is often interpreted as deliberate, capturing the creative chaos of reflection and emotional growth. The title CHROMAKOPIA hints at “chroma” (color), serving as a metaphor for individuality, expression, and emotional complexity.The record contains 14 tracks, including standouts like “Noid”, “Sticky” (featuring GloRilla, Lil Wayne, and Sexyy Red), and “Like Him” (with Lola Young). “Noid” notably samples “Nizakupanga Ngozi” (1977) by the Ngozi Family. Despite its unusual Monday release, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling around 299,500 units in its first week—Tyler’s strongest debut yet. It also reached the top spot in several other countries, including the UK, Australia, the Netherlands, and Ireland.Critics widely praised CHROMAKOPIA for its emotional honesty, rich production, and ambitious scope, calling it one of Tyler’s most mature and introspective works to date. Some reviewers described it as intentionally messy or overwhelming, but even those critiques acknowledged the album’s fearless creativity and depth.To support the release, Tyler launched the CHROMAKOPIA World Tour in 2025, featuring Lil Yachty and Paris Texas as supporting acts. Altogether, CHROMAKOPIA captures Tyler, the Creator at the height of his artistic freedom—a vivid, emotionally layered exploration of identity, growth, and color in sound.
