Tyler The Creator was a voice actor in the popular game Grand Theft Auto 5

Social Media Presence

Tyler has shown a penchant for using social media websites like Twitter to engage and interact with his fans, as well as other celebrities[1] . As of March 2012, he has accumulated over 18,000 tweets on his Twitter account and boasts well over 800,000 followers . His account has also been verified by Twitter, which is only done to “establish authenticity of well known accounts so users can trust that a legitimate source is authoring their Tweets”[2] . Tyler has gained notoriety for using social media to post comments and thoughts often construed as offensive or distasteful. In May 2011 he was criticized by the openly gay indie music duo Tegan and Sara in an open letter that accused Tyler of “misogynistic and homophobic ranting and raving” in his music and public comments[3] . He crassly responded to the duo with an inflammatory tweet two days later[4] . Tyler has also engaged in feuds with other celebrities through his Twitter account, notably Chris Brown[5] .

Length of the Controversy section

My understanding of WP:CSECTION is that controversies should ideally be integrated into the article's other sections. The current Controversy section is longer than most subsections under Career, which I believe may veer into WP:UNDUE, however unintentionally. I acknowledge the relevance of many of the criticisms levelled at Tyler and do not object to their inclusion in the article. What I'm suggesting is rather to find consensus on how to better integrate them in the article without such a lengthy Controversy section.

Under Career, under 2019-Present:

Change “The billboard included a phone number that when called, a recorded conversation between Okonma and his mother is played, which could serve as a snippet from an unreleased song.” to “The billboard included a phone number that when called, a recorded conversation between Okonma and his mother is played, which was later released as the song MOMMA TALK on the album.” Srayberg (talk) 04:24, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
