STINKPIECE: The Media Obsession w/ Tyler, The Creator's Sexuality

In the wake of Tyler, the Creator's new album Scum Fuck Flower Boy prematurely finding its way onto the Internet, several popular music/culture websites have seen it fit not only to publicize the leak, but to give early evaluations of the album's revelations about Tyler's sexuality. Today I'm reacting to one of MANY pieces published by Highsnobiety, probably the worst offender in this situation.

STINKPIECE: The Beatles Are for Men!!!
