“Sticky” by Tyler, the Creator featuring GloRilla, Sexyy Red and Lil Wayne

"Sticky" comes off Chromakopia, Tyler, the Creator's eighth album, from 2024, and it's a party with the guest list kept under wraps: GloRilla, Sexyy Red and Lil Wayne all turn up, and Solange Knowles slips in uncredited on background vocals. Columbia sent it out as the album's second single, a Southern hip-hop strut built on samples of James Brown's "Get Up Offa That Thing" and Young Buck's "Get Buck".

Critics took to it. HotNewHipHop's Alexander Cole liked that Tyler hid his features, a trick out of Travis Scott's playbook, and reckoned the surprise would pay off for fans. Consequence's Jonah Krueger heard Chromakopia at its most fun-loving and sex-obsessed, and Steven Loftin of The Line of Best Fit heard it swagger the album back into motion after the low point of "Judge Judy".
