No, Tyler, The Creator Isn’t Making a Hebrew Jazz Funk Album With Lil Yachty

Yachty was clearly joking around, but Tyler still felt it was necessary to clear things up.

Tyler, The Creator and Lil Yachty are not working on Hebrew jazz funk album.

Lil Yachty went on his Instagram over the weekend and posted a series of pics of him and Tyler in matching yellow outfits to thank him for taking him along on the Chromakopia tour, and joked that the West Coast rapper was secretly working on a high-concept project. “Tour is done, love you brother,” Yachty wrote in the caption. “Blessed to be apart. Let y’all in on a secret… dat boi Tyler workin’ on a Hebrew jazz funk album, sh– gone be tough.. 2026.”


Tyler then immediately commented, denying the claim and trolled fans that still expect a “Sticky” video. “LMFAOOOO NO I’M NOT,” he wrote. “DON’T GET THESE GULLIBLE ASS FANS HOPES UP, THESE N—AS STILL THINK A STICKY VIDEO IS COMING.”

And to be fair to the Tyler fans that are still clamoring for a “Sticky” video, he did post a one-minute teaser on his YouTube page about seven months ago and captioned it with, “video will come.” There’s also the fact that he released a video for “Darling, I” two weeks ago sandwiched between videos for “Sugar on My Tongue” and “Sucka Free” from his Don’t Tap the Glass project, so fans may very well get a visual for “Sticky,” but remember to not get your hopes up in case it really doesn’t happen.

As for as the secret Hebrew jazz funk album is concerned, Yachty must’ve been inspired by a fan on X who once joked around and told The Alchemist that he should consider making an introspective jazz album with Young Thug.

Val Blavatnik to Oversee Warner Music Canada in New Role at Warner Music Group

Blavatnik will oversee Warner Music Canada as managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at WMG. As part of a slew of executive announcements, Simon Robson will be leaving the company, while Alejandro Duque takes the top international role.

Val Blavatnik, the 28-year-old son of Warner Music Group majority owner and vice chairman Len Blavatnik, has been named managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at the Warner Music Group, the company announced Friday (Sept. 25). In his new role the younger Blavatnik, who has held several roles at the company in recent years, and has been a board member since 2023, expects to “unify and drive business and operational strategy across these markets while guiding the company’s investment strategy to support growth,” according to a press release.

The Blavatnik announcement is part of a flurry of new executive announcements that CEO Robert Kyncl made this morning. In addition, Atlantic Music Group chairman/CEO Elliot Grainge will take on ADA in the U.S. as its new chairman, while Alejandro Duque, who has held the dual roles of president of Warner Latin and president of ADA since last July, has been named president of Warner Music International, adding Asia-Pacific and Europe, the Middle East and Africa under his oversight. (Duque will continue to oversee ADA outside the U.S.) Zach Friedman, currently COO at Atlantic Music Group, will add the title of vice chair of ADA U.S. to his resume.
