In the days leading up to the first-ever YouTube Music Awards, Tyler, The Creator was one of its most outspoken critics. This despite the fact that he was scheduled to be one of the performers at the event. And while he performed "Sasquatch" alongside Earl Sweatshirt, he remained critical of the show.
During an interview with Revolt TV on the red carpet prior to the performance, Tyler was asked about his earlier comments regarding the show. Tyler said:
None
So YouTube, suck my dick. And hopefully, when you guys do a movie awards, "Ghost of the Hotel" is nominated."
Tyler appears to be taking a stand for those artists who do things independently and use YouTube as an opportunity to become stars by being creative. The Artist of the Year at the YouTube Music Awards was Eminem, while the Video of the Year went to Girls Generation's "I Got a Boy."
