#OFWGKTA


Ever since I was introduced to Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All better known as OFWGKTA by my life-long friend Osiris I've been hooked. Tyler, the creator (‘Tyler, the creator’ is his actual stage name) , the group’s founder, is in a league of his own- well a league shared only by his best friends Earl Sweatshirt and Hodgey Beats as well as other OFWGKTA members. If the group COULD be defined it would probably read something like “SHOCK RAPPERS. SKATE KIDS. RULE BREAKERS. CONTENT CREATORS. DIY EVANGELISTS. DISRUPTERS” as seen on their recent cover for Billboard magazine. To make a long story short, Odd Future, is shaking up the hip-hop game akin to the way Wu-Tang Clan did during their reign, possibly making them the face of the future of the rap game. An odd future indeed.

Due to the vulgarness of their music it would be inappropriate to post ANY of their music on a school related blog. However I highly recommend listening to them when you have a chance.
