two songs off Tyler's most recent album, Cherry Bomb. The first song outlines a weird and twisted love story.
The video, directed by Tyler himself, features aspects of Goodwin's "Music Video Theory."
Here are some examples of what I noticed:
1) The video makes an intertextual link to The Simpsons, which features a frequent skateboard-using character, Bart Simpson's catchphrase 'Kowabunga.'

| Tyler holding his skateboard, exclaims "Kowabunga", a nod to The Simpsons. |
2) There are multiple and frequent close-ups of Tyler wearing his brand which promotes a recognisable brand image.
 |
| GOLFWANG... Tyler and his friends can be seen throughout the video wearing their own clothing apparel. |
3) There's a relationship between the lyrics and the visuals, whenever Tyler is talking about the girl who is too young, she often appears on screen.

| Tyler The Creator's young admirer appears on screen when he mentions her. |
