Rapper and unstoppable creative force Tyler, The Creator has black Twitter in a whirlwind after several lines referring to his sexuality appeared on his new album, Flower Boy leaked over the weekend.

On the new album, the rapper appears to come out of the closet on the tracks "I Ain’t Got Time!" and "Garden Shed." “Next line will have ’em like ‘Whoa’ / I been kissing white boys since 2004,” Tyler says on "I Ain't Got Time!".

He adds to the speculation on "Garden Shed" when he hints at forbidden love and hiding secrets from his friends.

“That was real love I was in, Ain’t no reason to pretend” the lyrics say. "All my friends was lost / They couldn’t read the signs / I didn’t want to talk / I tell ’em my location and they ain’t want to walk.” But many Tyler fans are not surprised the least. In fact, they remind "fairweather" fans that he has mentioned being gay or possibly bisexual countless times before the latest album.

Tyler the Creator said he was gay like 12 times since Goblin dropped and niggas was like "nah, you just trolling cuz you miss your dad"

Old tweets from Tyler's Twitter account may lend some clarity to the situation. The question is could it be real or is it Tyler just being Tyler.
