Previous story:
Two major albums released this past Friday: Doja Cat’s Planet Her and Tyler, The Creator’s Call Me If You Get Lost.
While Doja is a creative artist, she still banks upon hit singles to truly deliver and she got a good start with her smash ‘Kiss Me More’ featuring SZA. Tyler, on the other hand, is an alternative rap artist where we don’t expect any radio hits. His album Call Me If You get Lost features Lil Wayne, Pharrell, Ty Dolla $ign, Lil Uzi Vert, NBA Youngboy and more.
