The album is a collection of eleven videos recorded from Tyler's first live performance of Igor, performed in May 2019. The song cuts off seemingly out of nowhere, at a depressing lull in mood, where Igor ceases to speak at all.

That loop is what makes The Life Of Pablo such a great album (I hold it in equally high regard as I do IGOR; both are in my top 4 albums of all time) with such an emotionally moving narrative.The cast list sees doubling; Irmgard Seefried is Gabriel and Eve, whilst Kim Borg takes Adam and Raphael.

The synths change around so many times throughout this track, that it's honestly not worth mentioning how amazing they are. Sterner fare, and one of the symphonic high points of his recording career, comes in the following disc with the Pathétique symphony, here with the Berlin Philharmonic in 1953.

Work on the album began in 2017, with Tyler initially writing the song " Earfquake" for Canadian singer Justin Bieber and Barbadian singer Rihanna, who both turned down the song. This is part one of the full “On DSCH” album - “On DSCH” Vinyl Part Two: Stevenson Passacaglia on DSCH – follows in February 2022. A pity for the mix on "Puppet" though, I guess Kanye's vocals will never fully be heard, but Tyler's art cover similar to the aesthetics of Bowie is heard loud and clear now after "Flower Boy", as much as hip-hop would love to keep Tyler, "Igor" shows genre expansion doesn't always have to be a bad thing, as long as it's genuine. As the album progresses, Tyler goes through his undulations of denial and acceptance, but spends considerable energy hoping to help his beloved find satisfaction, even if that means a future without him.
