Odd Future member, Tyler, The Creator released fourth studio album Cherry Bomb today. The LP features the likes of Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Pharrell and Schoolboy Q. The "Yonkers" rapper took to Twitter today to detail how collabs came about and some of the songwriting took place. In a long series of all caps tweets, the explanation dives into the personal details of Tyler's life as he was writing the album and some of the collaborations that did not come to be. Apparently he was looking to work with Stevie Wonder on "Find Your Wings", but that wasn't going to happen. He also warns fans he will be spamming out his album all week on social media so followers beware.
LISTEN FROM START TO FINISH. DONT TWEET OR NOTHING. JUST LISTEN. LOUD. IN YOUR ROOM OR CAR RIDE.

One track he is particularly proud of is "Find Your Wings," and the chords he composed for it, which might have scared some away, but many fans have caught on to what he did.
