overglazed not that good. Rick and Morty rolling paper music. Bonus star for including Frank Ocean. She, Yonkers, and Fish are the only songs I listen to off this album

Goblin is the record where Tyler sounds twenty, because he was. It runs over an hour and is hard to sit through in places, and that is part of why it still matters. The sessions with Dr. TC hold it together better than I remembered. Yonkers is still the best thing on it: a cheap, heavy beat, a black-and-white video with a cockroach, and a voice nobody else had in 2011. Plenty of the shock lines have aged badly. You can already hear the producer who made Flower Boy and IGOR in the chords on She and Analog, though. It is far from his best album, but it is the one that made people start listening.

About

Goblin is the second studio album by Odd Future leader Tyler, The Creator. It was released on May 10, 2011 through XL Recordings. The album's production came almost entirely from Tyler himself, along with contributions from fellow Odd Future member Left Brain. Goblin continues Tyler's dialogues with his fictional therapist Dr. TC, first heard on Bastard. The tracklisting is for the explicit edition of the album. A standard clean edition, as well as a deluxe clean edition is available also. The album was preceded by singles "Sandwitches", featuring Hodgy Beats, "Yonkers", "She", featuring Frank Ocean, and "Bitch Suck Dick", featuring Jasper Dolphin & Taco Bennett. The single "Yonkers" is considered responsible for garnering the significant internet and industry buzz surrounding the OF group at the time of the album's release. Upon release, Goblin received generally positive reviews from music critics. The album cover features Buffalo Bill at age 19.
