LUMBERJACK

About this song

“LUMBERJACK” is the lead single from CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST. Its instrumental heavily samples the Gravediggaz track “2 Cups of Blood,” released in August 1994. The song is Tyler's first officially released single since “Tell Me How” in February 2021, and it was dropped by surprise alongside a cinematic teaser for the album.

What it's about

Over an abrasive beat that contrasts with much of his more melodic work, Tyler boasts about his material wealth and addresses his critics.
