Tyler, The Creator capped off 2024 by sharing his personal soundtrack for the year, a list of his favorite songs highlighting his eclectic taste and appreciation for music. Posting just hours before midnight on X (formerly Twitter), Tyler revealed 15 tracks that defined the past twelve months for him. The list featured an impressive mix of artists and genres. Kendrick Lamar's "GNX," GloRilla's "Hollon," and ScHoolboy Q's "Cooties" earned their spots alongside gems like Lupe Fiasco's introspective "Dominican Barber" and the soulful "Green Therapy" by Tommy Richman.
Tyler also gave a nod to Knxwledge’s atmospheric “uaintfrmhere.” Notably, he included his own track, "Judge Judy," among the selections. Addressing a fan who questioned this choice, Tyler replied, "Yeah, I like the music I make. I’m confused on the question." His candid response underscored his confidence and deep connection to his craft. In his post, Tyler expressed gratitude for the music that shaped his year, saying, “Thank you all for these songs. I’m so grateful I get to hear them. I love you. I want to eat them broooooo.”

GloRilla had a huge 2024, which included collaborating with Tyler, The Creator, on the fan favorite, "Stickyy." She released her debut album, Glorious, in October. The album features T-Pain, Kirk Franklin, Sexyy Red, and more. Kendrick's mention on the list follows Tyler performing at the iconic Pop-Out concert headlined by Lamar.
Tyler surprised fans with a remix of Kendrick Lamar’s “Hey Now,” which he retitled “That Guy.” On Christmas Day, in response to a fan’s wish for him to freestyle on the track, Tyler delivered. “Merry Christmas. Had fun with it,” he wrote, sharing a YouTube link to the remix. The video for the remix was a treat for longtime fans, featuring appearances from Tyler’s old Odd Future collaborators Jasper Dolphin, Travis “Taco” Bennett, and Lionel “L-Boy” Boyce.
