Tyler The Creator Addresses Fans Who Booed Drake: ‘Made Us Look Sooo Entitled And Trash’
As we previously reported, Drake was booed at Tyler The Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw festival, over the weekend. Drake was the surprise headliner and he got booed because fans expected to see Frank Ocean.
Now, Tyler The Creator has spoken out about the event that he referred to as “trash.” He took to Twitter saying, “I thought bringing one of the biggest artists on the f—ing planet to a music festival was fire! But flipside, a lil tone deaf knowing the specific crowd it drew,” Tyler tweeted.
“Some created a narrative in their head and acted out like a–holes when it didn’t come true and I don’t f— with that.”
