Video: Tyler, The Creator's Tiny Desk Live Concert

I rarely post non-SoundCloud tracks, but it's mostly because (sadly) I don't watch much live performances or video. Music is usually a background during the stuff I do during the day, BUT NPR's Tiny Desk concerts is definitely something I follow as much as I can.

The guys invite nothing but extremely talented and interesting artists and seeing them in such intimate environment always feels like an experience. Hence, why are we here now? Well, their latest guest was Tyler, The Creator who came with a live band and absolutely killed it!

I was a bit surprised when I saw the announcement, but knew would be cool. Also, I guess it was also special for NPR's team and Tyler themselves:

Tyler, The Creator's Tiny Desk performance was a first for many reasons. It was the Los Angeles rapper's first time performing at our offices, but moreover, it was the Tiny Desk's first nighttime performance, a special request from Tyler and his team in order to professionally light the "stage" themselves. Members of Tyler's lighting crew came to the office a day before to set it up, eventually bathing him and his band in shades of fuchsia, orange and blue — one for each song — during the early evening show.
