Don't Tap the Glass
marks Tyler's ninth studio album and follows closely on the heels of
Chromakopia
, his 2024 release that was widely praised for its cinematic production and introspective lyricism. Its quick successor suggests the rapper-producer has been deep in his creative bag, blurring the line between eras and delivering new music on his own spontaneous schedule.
While no official tracklist or featured artists have yet been confirmed, fans are speculating that recent collaborators, including
Kendrick Lamar
and Doechii—who Tyler performed alongside at the Louis Vuitton Men's Spring/Summer 2025 show in Paris—may appear on the project. The fashion show performance of a new track titled 'Get Right' further fueled rumors about what
Don't Tap the Glass
might contain and the musical direction Tyler is pursuing this time around.
Live Events
The album announcement also arrives in the middle of Tyler's ongoing 'Chromakopia' world tour, which has already drawn sold-out crowds across North America, Europe, and Asia. Known for his theatrical set designs and genre-bending performances, the tour has only amplified the buzz around this latest announcement
The only thing Tyler has said publicly about the music is this: 'It's a new window. Just don't tap the glass.' Whether that's metaphor, mischief, or a mission statement remains to be seen.
