Intertextual Reference in '64'


 This screenshot is taken from Tyler, The Creator's music video 'Yonkers', it shows the OFWGKTA spearhead's dangling legs just after he hangs himself. This particular shot has become virally famous and many can establish the artist through it.


This is a screenshot taken from MellowHype's '64', which shows a similar shot to the one taken from 'Yonkers'. Tyler, The Creator's video has reached almost 15,000,000 views on Youtube since it's release, so this reference could of been placed in the video to use some of the Odd Future frontman's buzz to draw more attention to the less speculated members of the group; Hodgy Beats and Left Brain (MellowHype).
