Last night was the second night of Kanye West's Yeezus concert at Los Angeles' Staples Center, and much like the first night, a lot of celebrities were present to attend the show. Included amongst the celebrities were Tyler, The Creator and will.i.am. The two artists had a conversation with each other backstage, and according to Tyler, the conversation centered around artistry and the concept of "selling out."

Tyler said that in will's mind, the Odd Future leader will eventually have to sell out in order to continue to make money, but Tyler vehemently disputed this idea in a series of tweets. Tyler seems to have been angered by the comments, but also appears to be using them as fuel to prove will wrong. Overall, the experience wasn't all bad for Tyler, as he got to take a picture with Dave Chapelle, a man he reallyreally admires.
