Data Insight

Tyler, the Creator wrote and self-produced Chromakopia in full, performing it through the persona of St. Chroma, a masked alter ego who frames the album as a piece of introspective storytelling about identity, family, and aging. Tyler controls every layer of the production, from the synthesizer arrangements to the neo-soul melodies and choral interludes, while drawing on recorded spoken interludes from his mother to thread the narrative. Guest features such as Daniel Caesar on 'St. Chroma' and Teezo Touchdown on 'Darling, I' sit inside his own songwriting and production rather than steering it.

Chromakopia is the eighth studio album by Tyler, the Creator, released on October 28, 2024 through Columbia Records. Written, arranged, and produced entirely by Tyler, the record blends hip-hop, R&B, and jazz with eclectic, percussive instrumentation. Its songs include "Noid," "Sticky" featuring GloRilla, Sexyy Red, and Lil Wayne, and "St. Chroma" featuring Daniel Caesar, with further guests ScHoolboy Q, Santigold, and Lola Young. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, Tyler's third US chart-topper, and drew widespread acclaim for its lyricism and cohesion. Introducing the masked alter ego St. Chroma, it became one of 2024's most celebrated rap releases.
