Tyler, The Creator is planning something with Supreme and he has quite a storied history with the brand.
The Odd Future creator appears in a campaign for the iconic streetwear brand, although it appears this was more than just a one-time shoot. Fans aren’t quite sure what yet.
“I’ve been wearing Supreme stuff since I was 16,” Taylor said in a behind-the-scenes video of the shoot. “Every version you can think of. Still keeping them fresh. The bad thing is, at 16, 17, 18, 19 years old, Supreme was our Louis Vuitton. That was the most important thing to us. Especially knowing that everyone Not having it either way just makes it more special, even today, I love having something that no one else has.
He added: “So writing a rap, hearing someone talk about this car or this clothing line, that’s how n-ggas approach Supreme – so it’s a complete moment.”
Comments on Supreme’s Instagram are awash with speculation that Tyler could become their new creative director, as the position has been vacant since Tremaine Emory’s departure last year. However, as of this writing, nothing has been confirmed.
Tyler, the Creator, a fashion mogul in his own right, entered the next phase of their ongoing partnership with Converse earlier this year when he launched a new shoe line.
The footwear and apparel company has teamed up with California-based brand Golf le Fleur to revamp its classic Chuck 70 low-top shoe into four new designs. While all the items feature the same print—scattered blocks of pixels like leopard spots—they’re available in the following colors: green; pink and red; white and blue; and colorful.
Each pair was priced at $120 and sold out in record time.
On the music front, Tyler, the Creator is approaching a major milestone in his career, and he’s ready to celebrate the occasion with fans in Southern California.
The 33-year-old’s Camp Flog Gnaw carnival has been held every year since it was founded in 2012, with the exception of 2020 to 2022 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In June, he announced that the festival would return to Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium for a tenth time, but a lineup has yet to be announced. Tickets are available now here .
