Tyler, the Creator was a guest on DJ Drama’s Gangsta Grillz Podcast and spoke about fielding label offers earlier in his career. One of those offers came from JAY-Z and Roc Nation.
Tyler revealed Hov had him out to one of his Los Angeles area homes for tacos and offered a deal, which he would eventually deny.
“We just ate tacos,” Tyler said. “We ate some tacos and he wanted to sign us. I was like ‘Man you’re cool, but no.’”
Tyler revealed that he turned down the deal due to wanting full creative control of his work.
