Tyler, the Creator's "Cherrybomb" Explained

It itches

if there was no cherry bomb there would be no igor

White boy dick riding tyler, tell me whats new...?

Babe wake up technical difficulties. Made. A new video

For me this is a classic album. And undeniably important for tyler’s musical direction.

cherry bomb is my favorite album and everyone hates it it makes me so sad

i don’t like cherrybomb, but i understand that it is a pretty important album for tyler

His puberty album

Per usual, I waited on my opinion of Tyler for quite a few years (anything that becomes really big and mainstream I tend to shy away from until things have died down and I can get a clear picture of who the artist really is) but I’ve always been kind of shocked by fans that angry when an artist evolves and grows changing their creations to fit who they are at that time. Why do fans want the same old shit over and over again? I’ve never understood that.

Maybe it's cause I'm weird but i like cherry bomb

Tyler's yeezus

people think cherry bomb is ass but the song is so good to me lyrically, rhythmically, and I’m able to hear the lyrics perfectly and I love the song

cherry bomb is the album that got me through years of bullying it’ll always be my number one

I mean I love Cherry bomb, but there are 3 better albums he made

My fav album. I love the song cherry bomb. I love Tyler for how different he is from everyone else.

Cherry Bomb was honestly the album that got me into Tyler, The Creator.

It was raw, it was unapologetic, it was different from everything I heard at the time and I wanted more of it!

Been a fan ever since!

cherry bomb is heaven to my ears

Chur bum is so goofy I love him

Cherry Bomb is my favorite album from T. This is Tyler killing the horrid actions he talked about throughout the Wolf Trilogy. That explosive album is a release of that left over angst. That edge of his previous self. Tyler does not regret making the album, as seen in the “Sorry Not Sorry” music video where Cherry Bomb apologies for nothing. This was Tyler’s response to his emotions on a high note despite the brash sounds. In short, Tyler did indeed create.

looking back at it

Wolf Trilogy:
Bastard
Wolf
Goblin

Cherry Bomb is an explosion and the next step for his career

The New Era:
Flower Boy
IGOR
Call Me If You Get Lost

“fuck traditions stop impressing the dead”
which leads to his next album

Chromakopia, he abandoned his two year album gap and got rid of his 10th track tradition. his most vulnerable as well.

It's a really good album if you just sit there and REALLY listen .anyway my fav track 2SEATER

YESSSS thank you for bringing this to light 😭 🙏

Any story?

Cherry Bomb is amazing.

This was also the album for me that got me into Tyler. I love cherry bomb so much because it really was a transition into his other music like igor or CMIYGL.

ppl says “cherry bomb is SOOOO hated bro” but do not realize that it’s an “experiment” and experiments sometimes fails or succeeds.
i do not say the album failed, and nor hated it. i just think ppl are too overreacting over the idea of “opinions”

The mask is NOT a cherry btw lmao

I never enjoyed Cherry Bomb tbh but I do love the concept and I appreciate it. I think it was his turning point and I love it! I don’t rlly like the music but I do think it’s a very important album in his career!

My take: This is Tyler trying to see how he could make music in different genres this album has a lot of rock influenece over it. Now their is a rock song called Cherry Bomb released by The Runaways and if you look on Songfacts a trusty source for song info it says that it's a explosive toy kids had to play with. The song is a play on words is about an underage girl who is lots of trouble. Now I believe Tyler played off of this naming the album this since their are multiple songs talking about a relationship with a minor not just in Fucking Young. He talks about it throughout the album and how people put him down and talk about him behind his back and wanna see him fail but he continues to push no matter even through this taboo relationship. This is just the start of something but the album doesnt have a fully fleshed out story. It's just him trying something different and telling kind of a small story about his struggles to prevail in life and with this girl even with the people around him trying to drag him down. So it's not as cinematic as most of his albums but it's got a little bit of a story to it still. Im sure there's more to it if anyone wants to add.

I actually shed a tear when I heard lil Wayne's verse I wish I was joking 💀💀

I actually wonder if churnbum is so posed to be chewed gum or something else
