Tyler, The Creator‘s Call Me If You Get Lost has now achieved something that’s never been done before, as the 2021 album tops the Billboard charts once again.
According to Chart Data, the LA-based creative is the first-ever artist to have an album reach No.1 on the Top R&B and Hip-Hop Albums chart in three different calendar years (2021, 2022 and 2023).
The project was also recently dubbed the best selling Hip Hop album on vinyl worldwide in 2022 — echoing its success following its initial release just two years ago.
Inspired by DJ Drama’s Gangsta Grillz mixtape series, Call Me If You Get Lost arrived in June 2021 and boasted appearances from Lil Wayne, NBA YoungBoy, Lil Uzi Vert, Pharrell, Brent Faiyaz and more
Much like Tyler’s previous effort, IGOR, the free-wheeling project topped the Billboard 200 chart and won Best Rap Album at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards.
The news comes shortly after the Odd Future star landed at the No.3 spot on Billboard with the deluxe version of his sixth studio album, Call Me If You Get Lost: Estate Sale.
Billboard 200: #3(+134) @tylerthecreator, ‘CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST’ 68,000 (1,210,000 units since release). peak: #1 for 2 weeks.” Chart Data tweeted out.
The project, which features songs like “DOGTOOTH” and “HEAVEN TO ME” dropped on March 31. It also features “SORRY NOT SORRY,” which hears Tyler apologize for hiding his sexuality.
At the beginning of the video, DJ Drama opens the track by continuously screaming, “I’m sorry!” which is a prelude to the amount of beg-pardons Tyler drops throughout the desert-set visual.
Tyler, The Creator then apologizes to the men and women who he lied to about his sexuality. Many people believe he came out as gay on his 2017 LP Flower Boy.
“Sorry to the freaks I led on/ Who thought their life was gonna change ’cause I gave ’em head on/ But instead, I sped off, yeah, I know I’m dead wrong/ Sorry to the guys I had to hide/ Sorry to the girls I had to lie to, who ain’t need to know if I was by the lake switchin’ tides, too,” he raps over the sample-heavy track.
The Grammy-winning artist recently explained on Twitter that a ton of material was left on the cutting room floor when he recorded his sixth album, and that he wanted fans to enjoy the outtakes as much as he did.
“CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST WAS THE FIRST ALBUM I MADE WITH ALOT OF SONGS THAT DIDNT MAKE THE FINAL CUT,” the 32-year-old explained. “SOME OF THOSE SONGS I REALLY LOVE, AND KNEW THEY WOULD NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY, SO IVE DECIDED TO PUT A FEW OF THEM OUT.”
