2017 Tyler, the Creator song
"See You Again " is a song written, produced, and performed by American rapper Tyler, the Creator featuring vocals from Colombian-American singer Kali Uchis . It was released as the fourth single from Tyler's fourth studio album Flower Boy (2017) on August 29, 2017.[ 2] The single went viral on TikTok ,[ 3] leading the song to enter several charts around the world for the first time as a sleeper hit in April 2023.
Tyler, the Creator originally wrote the song for former One Direction member Zayn Malik , who turned it down. According to Tyler, Malik "flaked on studio time twice" and he kept the song for himself.[ 4]
The music video was directed by Tyler, the Creator under the alias of Wolf Haley and uploaded on YouTube on August 8, 2018. In the opening scene, A$AP Rocky talks on the phone, as Tyler gets ready for another workday in the close quarters of his aircraft carrier . Kali Uchis appears far away at sea on a rescue boat with other rowers, all of them wearing yellow raincoats.[ 5] The scene shifts to Tyler on the top deck of the military ship, donning a yellow beret and then flips to Tyler oddly wearing a ghost bed sheet, featuring only the eyes poked out, along with a bucket hat. A tire swings in the background, and when he is unveiled, a swarm of bees attack the screen.[ 6]
