CC. Tyler, The Creator | CHROMAKOPIA
Q: How do you feel about the album Chromakopia?
I think it's good enough to listen to in three months, but I just think that's not going to be the case. It will be one of those things where, almost like Mr. Morale and The Big Steppers, where people listen to two or three songs from that project, but they talk about the project, listen to it every day.
