Tyler, The Creator says crowd for night one of his All Points East takeover were “fucking dead”

Tyler, The Creator told fans at the second night of his All Points East takeover that the previous evening’s crowd had been “fucking dead” – watch footage below.

1. Slayyyter live at Reading 2026: pop’s star du jour blasts off.
2. Maisie Peters talks third album ‘Florescence’ and upcoming The O2 headline show at Reading 2026: “I literally can’t fathom it”.
3. Geese live at Reading Festival 2026: an apocalyptic show amid a biblical downpour.
4. Dolly Parton, 1946-2026: the Queen of Country was a unifying force in a divided world.
5. For Quiet Light, duality is a fact of life: “Everything is way more connected than we think”.

O rapper realizou dois shows de abertura esgotados no Victoria Park de Londres na sexta e sábado (28 e 29 de agosto), tornando‑se o primeiro artista a abrir o All Points East em dois dias consecutivos.

Early in Saturday’s set, before launching into ‘Darling, I’, Tyler compared the two audiences and thanked the second-night crowd for bringing the energy that had been lacking on Friday.

Rex Orange County also appeared during Tyler’s Saturday set for ‘Boredom’. He had performed the song with Tyler on Friday too, following his own main-stage performance earlier that evening.

The two days featured separate supporting bills. Friday’s line-up included Mariah The Scientist, Clipse, Sexyy Red, Ravyn Lenae, Vince Staples and Yebba, while Saturday featured Daniel Caesar, Baby Keem, Dijon, Ghostface Killah, Syd, Faye Webster, Danny Brown, Jim Legxacy, Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats.

Elsewhere during Friday’s event, Turnstile brought out Faye Webster to perform ‘I Care’, following the release of the band’s reimagined album ‘Never Enough: Versions’.

Rex Orange County também aqueceu o festival com um show de pré‑estreia no Village Underground na quinta‑feira (27 de agosto), onde foi acompanhado pelo vocalista da Turnstile, Brendan Yates, para debutar a música inédita “Elvis”.

All Points East’s 2026 run began with headline performances from Jorja Smith and Tems on August 21, followed by Lorde and an Outbreak London takeover topped by Deftones.

Twenty One Pilots encerrará o festival esta noite.

Tyler released his latest studio album, ‘Don’t Tap The Glass’, in July last year. NME awarded it four stars, writing: “The paranoia and parasocial tension explored on that record still linger – but beneath cartoonish ’80s rap armour.

It’s part Kurtis Blow and part LL Cool J, encased in a clear Perspex chamber like a collector’s action figure. Instead of inviting connection, Tyler shields himself behind the glass: a museum piece for dance and display only.”.

No início deste mês, Tyler também anunciou a programação do Camp Flog Gnaw 2026. O festival voltará ao Dodger Stadium, em Los Angeles, nos dias 14 e 15 de novembro, com Turnstile, Lola Young, Steve Lacy, Future, Vince Staples e Syd entre os que se juntarão a ele.
