Tyler, the Creator Denies Recording a ‘Hebrew Jazz Funk’ Album

Tyler, the Creator has denied that he is working on a new ‘Hebrew jazz funk’ album, following speculation from Lil Yachty’s social media comments.

After Lil Yachty suggested on social media that Tyler, the Creator was working on a “Hebrew jazz funk album,” the internet began speculating when the album would be coming out. But Tyler was quick to deny that such an album is in the works.

“Tour is done, love you, brother. Blessed to be apart [sic]. Let y’all in on a secret. Dat boi Tyler workin’ on a Hebrew jazz funk album,” wrote Lil Yachty on his Instagram. “Shit gonna be tough… 2026.”

But in the post’s comments, Tyler quickly confirmed that Yachty wasn’t serious. “LMFAOOOO NO I’M NOT DON’T GET THESE GULLIBLE ASS FANS HOPES US,” wrote Tyler. “THESE N—AS STILL THINK A STICKY VIDEO IS COMING.”

Yachty also praised Tyler as one of his few mentors in the music industry. “Last leg of this tour for me, and I just want to take the time to thank you for your friendship, thanking you for giving me the praises I needed to push me on, and holding me accountable when I do some ignorant shit. All in all, I’m grateful.”

“[One] of the few mentors I have, always held me accountable, always challenged me,” Yachty added. “Forever grateful. Young men need mentors. Need a line of proper guidance. Thanks Tyyytyyy.”

Meanwhile, Tyler has been sharing some insight into his creative process and offering some advice for other artists. “People end up scared and not putting albums out for 15 years because they feel like they always have to—’I got to make the most innovative, best stuff.’ And sometimes, man, that song is good. Just put that bitch out. ‘Cause when n—as is 80 years old, you really think [you] about to sit here, all this great music on a hard drive, be like, ‘Oh fuck, it wasn’t—’ Fuck it, put it out.”
