Tyler the Creator is fired up on Twitter upon revealing that his previous collaborators have stolen and sold his previous works online.

The GRAMMY Award-winning rapper's short but packed rant on Twitter is an expose, and a diss at the same time.

Tyler The Creator Exposes Former Collaborators for Stealing His Work

Storming to Twitter recently, Tyler the Creator is not holding back on his words as he exposes his former collaborators and friends Brandun Deshay and Tyler Major for doing the unthinkable.

Tyler publicly accused Deshay and Major of allegedly stealing his unreleased music and selling it online for their profit and gain.

The 34-year-old rapper did not go into details as to what specific songs were stolen and how much it was sold. However, he claimed that Deshay and Major were using the instant messaging Discord to sell his old songs.

The Flower Boy hitmaker's friendship with Deshay and Major stems more than a decade ago.

In 2009, Deshey teamed up with Tyler for 2009's Session. Unfortunately, his verse was later on removed from the song after what seemed to be a fallout between them took place.

This is not the first time Tyler blasted Deshay on Twitter, as the former is not known to mince his words on the bird app. Per the decades-old tweets - he claims that he is not cool with the latter and his then crew, Odd Future.

As for Major, he was long part of the hip-hop collective Nobody Really Knows, which also included Hall Williams, aka Pyramid Vritra, an Odd Future crew member.

As of this writing, Tyler the Creator has not indicated nor expressed if he would want to pursue legal actions against Brandun Deshay and Tyler Major for stealing and selling his unreleased works online.

Should the lawsuit pursue, this would not be the first time members of the Odd Future and Tyler would be embroiled in a lawsuit involving their music.

Odd Future and Tyler the Creator have a history of lawsuits during their time as a collective. In 2018, the crew was facing heat after they were accused of lifting Dee Edwards' Why Can't There Be Love.

Ubiquity Records Inc. claimed that Odd Future has used the beat of the Edwards classic and used it to make Cherry Bomb's 2015 hit Deathcamp.
