Odd Future visionary Tyler, The Creator shuts down his Twitter page.

The page that brought us the iconic handle @fucktyler is no more. Much to the chagrin of his 3.7 million followers, Tyler has officially pulled the plug on his Twitter account. The Odd-Future ringleader had speculated openly on whether or not he would make the move, and it appears he has made his decision. Tyler's page is no longer available, and all his tweets have ferried off to internet hell. His Instagram page remains, at least for now.  

The timing of this move is curious. Such a drastic decision is bound to get people talking, and maybe Tyler wants his name on people's minds. Last year, art rock gods Radiohead deleted their entire internet presence right before dropping their new album.  Maybe some new Tyler music is on the horizon. Or maybe dude just needed a break.
