Tyler, the Creator pulled one of the harshest bait-and-switches the Grammys stage has ever seen. Just hours after arriving to the ceremony dressed, sardonically, as the in-house bellhop, “The Daily Show’s” Trevor Noah introduced him alongside classic R&B guests Boyz II Men and Charlie Wilson. But seconds later, Tyler took the reins and drove the show straight into suburban hell. Not since Kendrick Lamar’s 2016 performance of “The Blacker the Berry” and “Alright” has an artist lighted up a Grammy stage with this much pure adrenaline and fury. It all ended with Tyler throwing himself into a pit of fire and disappearing from the wreckage of the stage.
