{Personal Post} PHOTOS/VIDEO: Tyler, the Creator "Chromakopia" World Tour | Washington D.C


Chromakoooooopia.
Over the last 14 years, this is my 6th Tyler concert.  Would be 7, but I was sick during the Flower Boy show and had to sell my tickets.  Seeing him grow to a star of this magnitude has been quite the journey.  I grabbed these the moment they went on sale last year.  The album had already consumed my veins.  It was a must I go.  
The date finally came and was the last show of the North America leg of the tour.  Excitement is an understatement.  The show was nothing short of AMAZING.  Literally, perfecto.  Let me add... you can tell my boy's budget has increased.  The theatrics and more.  The price has definitely gone UP. 

From merch to the concert itself, I tried to capture the essence of it all through my lens.

Can you feel the light?
