Your support makes all the difference.Tyler the Creator has asked his fans to refrain from throwing things on stage during his live concerts.
In a tweet posted on Wednesday (30 March), the 31-year-old rapper wrote: “Stop throwing your s*** on stage.”
“I don’t want it,” he said. “Now mid-show I gotta move it, what’s the logic? F***ing stop. Thanks b.”
Soon after his tweet, one fan commented with a video of Tyler, the Creator, whose real name is Tyler Gregory Okonma, seen stopping a concert after a fan threw something on the stage.
“I don’t understand the logic of throwing your s*** up here,” the Igor rapper says in the clip. “Not only for safety reasons. But bro, I don’t want your s***. I don’t want it.
“Like, not even being funny. Every show someone throws something up here, and I don’t understand the logic. Why do you think I want your s***?”
“Then if I slip and break my foot... stop throwing that f***ing s*** up here bro,” he continued. “Now you look stupid. Now everyone around you is looking at you like [you’re] a real f***ing idiot. Stop. F***. F***ing, d**k-f***.”
Another fan posted a clip of the moment when a fan threw a bra at Tyler during a live concert.
“@tylerthecreator was killing this verse then here yall go throwing them funky a** bras,” the fan wrote in the caption.
Rapper Baby Keem agreed with Tyler’s request and replied: “Please stop dawg. Please.”
