What do the lyrics of Tyler, the Creator's Wusyaname mean?
The following day, 16 June, Tyler released the first single from the album, Lumberjack, with its traditional music video.
A week later, fans were hit with another single titled Wusyaname and another accompanying video.
The clip begins with Tyler narrating a road trip to an undisclosed location.
Arriving at what seems to be a country club, he spots a woman whom he quickly becomes interested in.
"In California, you spend most of your life in cars, moving, traveling, searching for somewhere to land," he narrates at the beginning of the clip.
"I don't mind tiptoeing across the globe for thrills and flying to Vienna to see a show at the Kunsthistorisches Museum or headed south to raise dolphins on jet skis."
"But this time I ended up in [bleep], lookin' for this brioche my boy told me about. That's when I met 'She.'"
Infatuated with the woman, Tyler raps:
Aw, you look malnourished
Let's get some bread
Fry the egg yolk and drown it in syrup
You pick a spot, I pick a tail number and we can be tourists.
Let's go to Cannes and watch a couple indie movies that you never heard of
Listen to bands, groove and we dance
Disco in France, smell some perfume, head in the wind
We can switch off.
Get your passport 'cause we runnin' off
We can sit and talk
You can tell me everything that's on your chest, baby, get it off.
While it is clear that Tyler is trying to get the woman's attention, the clip ends with her walking to her date at a nearby table, confirming Tyler's serenade to be unsuccessful.
