Tyler, the Creator Teases Don’t Tap the Glass

It appears that Tyler, the Creator is gearing up for something big. The musician has been posting about July 21, and, outside his concert tonight at Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, New York, there was a large Tyler-like figure in a box that said “DON’T TAP THE GLASS.” Digital signage on the arena also promoted the website DontTapTheGlass.com. From there, fans can click through to the Golf Wang website, where vinyl records, CDs, and box sets are available to purchase. Everything ships on Monday, July 21.

Beyond the links to order merchandise, the Don’t Tap the Glass website has three directives:

1. Body Movement. No Sitting Still.
2. Only Speak in Glory. Leave Your Baggage at Home.
3. Don’t Tap the Glass.

Tyler, the Creator has not shared much in the way of new music or videos since releasing Chromakopia last October. He posted “That Guy,” a freestyle on the beat for Kendrick Lamar’s “Hey Now,” on Christmas, and he also teased a “Sticky” video that many fans are still hoping gets released in full. More recently, he featured on Clipse’s Let God Sort Em Out cut “P.O.V.”

For the most part, Tyler, the Creator has been busy on his tour in support of Chromakopia. The tour began in February, and he’s nearly wrapped up the second North American leg. He’s still due to headline festivals (including Lollapalooza and Outside Lands) amid his traditional tour dates. He heads to the Southern Hemisphere in August for dates in New Zealand and Australia, and he’ll close the tour in September with concerts in Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and the Philippines.
