For the best part of an hour, Tyler, the Creator answered questions from the young creators and explained to one of them how he handles rejection. He told the woman that he is careful to not ask for advice from people who aren’t familiar in his area of expertise.
“[For example] I don’t wear sweats. So if my friend is like, ‘y’all I made these sweats, you want to wear them?’ And I’m like, ‘bro, I don’t wear sweats, so I can’t even say that these are good or bad’… Be super aware that stuff like.
