Tyler, the Creator Says He's Proud Of Beating DJ Khaled's 'Father of Asahd" Album

by Daryl Nelson

Tyler, the Creator recently spoke to Zane Lowe about DJ Khaled throwing a fit that his Father of Asahd album opened up at No. 2 behind his"IGOR" LP.

Khaled was so mad at the news that he stormed into Epic Records and caused a big scene. There was also footage of the Miami artist taking shots at Tyler.

Tyler said he more than deserved to win.

"No disrespect to Khaled or anyone. But this n***a had every person in the industry, everyone on that f**king album," Tyler told Zane. "Cardi B, 21 Savage, Travis Scott, Post Malone, Beyonce, Jay. Everyone who sells billions of records, and the fact that I beat him with this, that isn’t parallel to all the popping music right now, was f**king crazy, bro. Like, that was insane to me. And it’s new to me, bro. I’m on album five and six. And it’s work. It’s effort,  whether n***as like it or not, bro. It’s so much work and detail put into this sh*t, like, I’m so proud of myself."
