The Truth About Tyler, The Creator's Relationship With Tracee Ellis Ross

Posted by Tobi Tarwater on Tuesday, June 11, 2024

Tracee Ellis Ross and Tyler, the Creator can't quite remember the circumstances that brought them together, but they agree that ASAP Rocky, Tyler's friend and frequent collaborator, had something to do with it. "I was with Rocky and he was like, 'I'm going to go to this place,'" Tyler recalled to Ross when they talked for Interview Magazine in the summer of 2020. "And I was like, 'I don't want to go there, that place is stupid. But okay, I'll go for six minutes. But we're leaving at 7.' And then you were there and we ended up hanging out."

Needless to say, they're both pretty happy that they crossed paths that night, and they just can't find enough ways to praise each other. "Externally, I don't know that people would think we have so much in common," Ross said, adding that she experienced her first-ever mosh pit at one of Tyler's shows. It's clear that the two just get along in an effortless way, with Tyler telling Ross, "You have a glow that radiates. People just want to hang out with you." Tyler, the Creator has more first-hand experience than we do to make that assessment, but we, too, want to hang with Tracee Ellis Ross.
