Riot At Tyler the Creator Album Signing

We figured we’d passed peak Odd Future fever this past Tuesday when Tyler the Creator dropped his album, Goblin, performed a secret show, and got himself arrested. Turns out nobody told the kids in Boston that OFWGKTA is totally 72 hours ago.

An album signing session at Newbury Comics got out of hand when hundreds of fans showed up to meet everyone’s favorite not-horrorcore rapper, unaware that they were supposed to pick up wristbands several hours earlier in order to meet the sudden superstar. Police were called in, and Tyler had to be escorted out the back, where fans rushed the rapper. In the meleé, a cop slipped and hurt his back. Best part is WHDH News Boston referring to the incident as a “rap riot.”


The real question is, does this make Odd Future the new Depeche Mode?
