IGOR is the fifth studio album by Tyler, the Creator. It was released on May 17, 2019. The album features notable artists like Kanye West, Cee Lo Green, and Solange. The album follows Igor, who plays with the trope of the same name, as he falls in and out of love with a close friend. The album marks a shift in Tyler, The Creator's style. Rapping is undoubtably his strength, but the album stands more on pop and R&B-like vocals. It makes use of repetition and synths to help carry the listener through Igor's journey.IGOR was released to widespread critical acclaim. Critics praised it for its narrative and ability to convey a range of emotion. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.

Green-Eyed Monster: Referenced on "New Magic Wand." The phrasing is a specific Shout-Out to Erykah Badu's "Green Eyes."

New Sound Album: The album is more Alternative R&B and Neo Soul-influenced than previous records, and contains not as much rapping.

Album Intro Track: "Igor's Theme." It contains no rapping and is meant more as a tone-setter.

Straight Gay: Igor makes numerous allusions to being in love with a man, but the content and style of the music certainly aren't campy in any sense.

Destructive Romance: The album's main theme——the boy is compared to a gun, and the hold that the boy has over Igor leads him to destroy other people and himself.

The Igor: Deconstructed. The main character is meant to be one, as conveyed by creepy synths and references to Gothic villains, but the album fleshes out the effect this has on his emotional state and arc.
