I love how they let him perform a lowkey ALBUM CUT instead of something more popular. People are finally respecting Tyler’s artistry and I love to see it.

Tyler always has the best set design for his performances.

He doesn’t just perform live. He goes out there and tells you a story

Tyler is so good live. You can hear the confidence in his cadence just as easily as you can on his recorded songs. He is quickly becoming one of the biggest names in hip-hop and its long overdue. Big love for Tyler, hoping some day I can emulate a similar degree of confidence in my own songs!

one thing about tyler, is that he is always gonna have the BEST live visuals

I love how this song basically encapsulates everything Tyler has been through his whole career

That finishing line still gives me chills bro

2:34 I was listening to the studio version thinking about this performance and I had to run it back to confirm he said "boys and girls" instead of "X and Y". POWERFUL PERFORMANCE

Happy to see massa finally getting the spotlight treatment, especially when it's such a charged song to sing in front of an audience. It seems like the more Tyler goes live with it the more he's comfortable with some of the stuff of the verses and straight-up ditches some of the more obscured parts for more literal verses (e.g. "custody between X and Y" in the og recording VS "boys and girls" in live), which takes some serious balls to do at an award event of all places. It's clear he's finally reached a point where he's comfortable with himself, props to him.

He effortlessly made this so visually pleasing, literal artist of the year

Man, Tyler’s so genuine. He doesn’t have a voice track behind him like a lot of rappers, he’s rapping the whole song with the amazing visuals. I love that song.

“you can’t relate to the things i say to these instrumentals, whether it’s wealth talk or shit that’s painful. i paint full pictures of my perspective on these drum breaks. just for you to tell me i’m not good from your lunch break.” that’s that raw emotion shit

Massa is one of the deepest/honest songs off the album and I’m glad he performed it at the amas😩

He has such a funny energy with him even when singing something sad. His live performances are great. Really loved the bird noise. Love this guy.

“I keep my eyes open when I pray cause I can’t trust God either” That’s probably one of the hardest lines in rap in the past 3 years

Those little hops at 1:56 make Tyler look like a cartoon character which fits him so well that man’s something out of a dr seus book

Still can't believe he wasn't nominated, snubbed isn't even the right word

The fact that this kid went from Goblin, to 3 straight classic albums is crazy. Love seeing his growth in the past 12 years.

"Mom was in the shelter when Yonkers dropped I don't say it, when I got her out I knew that was the moment I made it, I dont come from money they'll deny it, cuz I don't mirror the stereotypical products of my environment" That was crazy 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Tyler, you hit right where it hurts when you said “eyes open if I pray cuz I can’t trust God either” had me literally grabbing my chest. I luv u

this stage is so small yet so detailed love it.

this song is not a conventional song that should be performed at an award show, but that’s why Tyler is different. “I paint pictures of my perspective on these drum breaks, just for you to tell me it’s not good from your lunch break.”

Very underrated song, this "deep cut" as I've seen people calling it is what got me into Tyler and this genre music as a whole, quite literally.

Tyler is probably one of the most creative people when it comes to concepts and set design. This stage legit feels like a music video, with no major editing effects other than some zooming in and out..

A perfect performance for a perfect crowd, chefs kiss

I always wanted to see Tyler show his emotion on this track and this performance does it perfectly. The change in energy and delivery is just amazing.

This is one of my favorite Tyler songs ever. It encompasses his past and present mindsets in a beautiful way.

I have not seen anyone perform better or keep me interested in their performance like Tyler he performs by himself and its better than performances I have seen with 20 + people on stage that's a superpower

THE MF PASSION IN HIS VOICE THO! That's what happens when you actually live everything you write.

the visualssss yuhhh

Tyler deserves every single beam of love he receives. Living art and has a high level of professionalism. All the praise.

That little hop he does at 1:55 is my favorite thing ever

Beautiful set, I’m not surprised if Tyler designed the entire backdrop

I like the silhouette in the window and how it ties-in with ‘everyone I ever loved had to be loved in the shadows’ and the ‘I sleep with a gun’ lines

"Everyone I ever loved had to be loved in the shadows " I felt that line👑🎨

He said what he said at the end with his whole heart people been doubting him for a decade now he up im happy for him

I love that he made live version so he can take a breather in between lines. Tyler is such a great performer!!

Crazy how this man was cancelled in other countries, dropped a gem like cherry bomb and then bounced back and now is the biggest superstar ever. Congratulations Ace.

3:05 was getting mad emotional

the line “everyone i loved had to be loved in the shadows” always gives me chills

I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE SO MUCH

This performance is so incredible - He has such an amazing way of expressing his words without them being difficult to understand or relate to. This is what music should be doing.

I love how unapologetic and authentic Tyler is. One artist who just continues to evolve and get better overtime ❤️ we love you Tyler!!

this dude went from eating cockroaches and rapping about random things, to a lovey dovey with a heart... what a progression

It's so crazy that I was working this show and got to watch this performance in the broadcast control room I was in. As I was watching and listening, I was so amazed by this performance and just his presence that he brings to the stage. So grateful I have a job that allows me to experience these things!

Hearing this song for the first time was so amazing because its all kind of a rant by the end, and that second verse has a really one breath/stream of thought delivery. Seeing him maintain the performance while also going a little crazy on the second verse, almost like he’s going crazy trying to defend himself to all the hate he gets. This delivery was so amazing. I need to see this tour!

wow the visuals of this performance are amazing. He’s a true talent.

I’m so glad for Tyler. This dude came a long way from Yonkers.

I saw this live and loved it. I'm glad Tyler's getting the recognition he deserves

I almost cried, that was so beautiful.

Hands down most underrated performer out right now. Great performance

yler staging his performances like a play

I don’t really know how many times i can say T is the illest. So happy everytime he performs

wait ... this too genius ... this play is incredible ... thank god we have art like this

Tyler is very creative, that outstanding kind of creativity.

I'm happy he actually rapped the lyrics his self , instead of having a background track doing the job. You don't see that a lot these days

THIS is real rap, this is ART totally killer performance.... perfection

I got respect for a rapper that doesn't rap to his studio version

I absolutely love all Tyler's live performances and they way he creatively execute on stage. Amazing!

This is one of my favorite songs on the album

This performance shows us the emotions he felt through out the recording of Massa

My favorite song from CMIYGL

This set is beautiful. Tyler is a very generous performer.

goat

Tyler is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your going to get.

wow.... this gave me goosebumps..

I’m 43 years old and Tyler is one of the best who ever did it💯💯💯💯💯

i love the fact that he broke down what x and y was in this performance, love this man❤️

Tyler staging his performances like a play, it’s awesome 👏

NEVER FORGET THIS LEVEL OF QUALITY FROM A REAL ARTIST (& CREATOR that loves everything he do)

This was a good performance as well as word play.... First time listening to Tyler the Creator. Honestly I'm impressed....

Mfer said “tug of war with boys and girls felt like a custody battle” and people still think hes straight

Yes! My favorite song on the album. The line “Everyone that I loved had to be loved in the shadows” always hits me in my core. Can’t wait to see T live!

i love tyler's vision for colors and he is the only artist i've seen righ now in the industry that applies those colors on stage like no one, the way he uses the blue lights when he performs massa is so hypnotizing and complements so well with the enviroment, i love this man more with each passing day

he’s such a legend i can’t even i love him sm 🤍🤍

CMIYGL is a 10/10. Album of the year imo

0:08 stares right into your soul, Album Of The Year 🔥

Tyler pulling off them Goblin era faces towards the end

03:16 Just for y'all to tell me I'm not good from y'all lunch break.

Man I wish I could see this man live once in my life time

I love the subtle changes from the album version lyrics. U can tell he really be thoughtful of what he puts in his lyrics

incredible live!! never a dull moment

This is the exact feeling i get when i listen to massa

We really watched Tyler go from that weird kid at the back of the class to the Class President in 12 years

This man is brilliant!!! And I’m so inspired watching this.

such an incredible performer! truly a legend

Tyler is the person where you see he really cares about the art and delivery

This was one of the best visually pleasing performances I've seen, even if I didn't get to see it live.

He’s such a gem 💎 so magnetic. Iv watched the video a million times already. It’s so beautiful . And hey , so is he .

I cant stop listening to it!

Real ones know you’re a genius, Tyler

Seeing Tyler become comfortable in himself and sexuality is the thing I have loved watching the most over the years❤️ love him sm

The ART DIRECTION on this alone is ....I don't even have words to describe how much this has influenced and affected me in the best ways possible.

I love this so, so much. Beautiful 😍

I love how he starts to be more aggressive at the end

such a hard song to perform and one of the best he's ever written - so glad he keeps performing it, huge respect for that

WELL DONE this was really great!

I've watched this multiple times and I get chills every time

Dude this is my favorite song out of the album absolute fire and really great set!!

Tyler has come such a long way ❤️
