Last week, he shared a pair of teasers featuring two new tracks, “IGOR’S THEME” and “WHATSGOOD,” that are expected to appear on the project.

IGOR marks the follow-up to 2017’s Flower Boy, which received a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album. Last November, Tyler dropped a six-track holiday EP, Music Inspired by Illumination & Dr. Seuss’ The Grinch.
