Tyler, The Creator: controversial rap superstar at the top of his game

Arguably the most controversial figure in the modern hip-hop scene, outspoken and often foul-mouthed extravert Tyler, The Creator is also proving to be one of the most talented rappers of his generation. Having burst from the ranks of Odd Future, he has gone on to make a stellar solo career, with his third album Wolf eclipsing even the standards of his breakthrough record Goblin. And hip hop buffs are now wondering what he's got to throw at us this time around.

Banned from entering the UK in 2015 for a period of three to five years by then-Home Secretary, now-Prime Minster Theresa May due to the contents of his mixtape Bastard, we may have to wait a little while before we see him live on this side of the Atlantic again.

Tyler, The Creator: establishment scorn only serves as fuel for success

Born Tyler Gregory Okonma in 1991 in Los Angeles, hip-hop maverick Tyler, the Creator rose to fame as part of the controversial rap troupe Odd Future, which also featured the singing talents of megastar Frank Ocean. He released his low key debut solo album Bastard in 2009 and the irreverent recording became a cult hit with hip hop taste makers. However, it was the success of his 2011 album Goblin which saw him bag the cover of NME. In the same week that Prince William married Kate Middleton, the rapper mocked the event by wearing a wedding dress for the magazine photoshoot.

The controversies continued to pour in, but critics leapt to his defense, hailing him as the modern day Eminem; with many suspecting Tyler of playing an alter ego akin to the rap mogul's 'Slim Shady'. Criticism - and the ban from entering the UK - hasn't halted his success though (while some would argue it has even aided it), with his third album Wolf consolidating his position at the very top of the rap game.
