"I know I got the best album out"

There's a lot going on in the wildly colorful world of Tyler, The Creator. The Odd Future figurehead dropped his new album, Scum Fuck Flower Boy, last month, announcing his annual Camp Flog Gnaw Festival just weeks after that with a new how-to show on VICELAND filling out the audiovisual barrage.

Today, he's announced a short run of tour dates in support of the new album with the release of an introspective set of bars painted against the soulful backdrop of Jay-Z's title-track cut, "4:44." The tour launches Halloween 2017 with a show in San Francisco, making his way down the coast and across the states with dates in Portland, Seattle, Cleveland and St. Louis before closing out on the east coast.
