HipHopRaisedMeTheBlog.com is buzzing with excitement as Tyler, The Creator recently shared a throwback video of himself performing an impressive dance routine to Omarion’s hit song “Touch” from 2004. The clip, which resurfaced on social media, showcases a young Tyler confidently taking the stage during an 8th-grade talent show, earning the title of “The Winner… Tyler Okonma” as he flawlessly recreates the choreography.
The 33-year-old artist posted the nostalgic VHS footage with the caption “8th Grade,” and fans were quick to respond with admiration. One user on X remarked, “He was smoove with it since day one wow,” while another reminisced about the purity of music from that era, saying, “TOUCH! nahhh music back then was so pure and actually cool. What a time!” Fans also commented on Tyler’s growth since those early days, sharing memories and engaging in discussions about his journey.
Tyler and Omarion both hail from Los Angeles, and “Touch” marked Omarion’s debut single as a solo artist following the breakup of B2K. Produced by The Neptunes, the track featured Zena Foster as the leading lady in the music video and paved the way for Omarion’s debut album, O, released in February 2005. Tyler, on the other hand, made his debut into the music scene with the hit “Yonkers” in 2011, introducing the world to his iconic collective, OFWGKTA, which includes today’s stars like Earl Sweatshirt, Frank Ocean, and Steve Lacy.
At 33, Tyler is still showing off his dance moves. He recently performed alongside Sexyy Red during their collaboration “Sticky” at the Camp Flog Gnaw Festival. This hot track is part of his latest album, Chromakopia, released in October, which will be supported by a world tour featuring Paris, Texas, and Lil Yachty in 2025. Meanwhile, Omarion is set to headline the upcoming Millennium Tour alongside Bow Wow, Trey Songz, and Plies.
