Word on the street is Tyler, The Creator is all grown up. The 26-year-old rapper, who rose to fame as a part of the hip-hop collective Odd Fu- ture (also known by its longer name Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All), met widespread acclaim with the release of his fourth studio album, Flower Boy, in July of this year — showcasing his most mature sounding material yet. But, more than that he’s quite the entrepreneur; he’s gearing up to release the fall/winter collection of his clothing line, GOLF, he just released a signature shoe with Converse and recently launched two TV shows, Nuts + Bolts on Viceland and The Jellies on Adult Swim. Despite his busy schedule, the influential rapper will be stopping by McDonald Theatre on his current tour. You could catch Tyler, The Creator, with opener Taco, at 9 pm, Saturday, Nov. 4, at Mcdonald The- atre, but the show is sold out. — Meerah Powell Ballroom, 1626 Willamette St. $8-$12.
