On the surface, CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST sounds like Tyler flexing about how great his life is, with specific moments that reference a failed love he had with some girl.

But in reality, this album mirrors a famous poem by Charles Baudelaire in many ways, but takes it a step further and comes to a conclusion that is both realistic and interesting.

Tyler's primary subject matter on this LP is flexing his successes, and his wealth. But deeper than that, there is a real pride he displays in how he has navigated his way in the music industry, standing for what he believed in amidst a lot of hate and a journey to self-discovery related to his sexuality and identity.

Tyler sounds content and FREE.

This all serves to set the context for the one missing piece that is remaining in his life, which seemingly would upset this peaceful mind-state that he is otherwise painting in his rhymes... and that is a girl.

A girl he is trying to court to complete this decadent life Tyler now leads. This is precisely where the album's layers begin to unfold...
