On the r/television subreddit, fans discussed the appearance by Tyler, the Creator, as Mr. Rochelle on “Ridiculousness,” and the consensus was not kind. It’s not hard to see why, either, because much of the character seems to be pretty one-note and he yells words like “Idiots!” repeatedly throughout his stint.
“I don’t think anything funny or clever was said by him at all. I know it was Tyler, the Creator in disguise, but it really was not amusing in the least,” wrote u/Shrekk_Wpg in their thread. “I found Rochelle annoying and just wanted him to shut up,” agreed u/Manky_Dingo. “He had 2 lines and just wanted to repeat them over and over.”
Though Tyler, the Creator is a Grammy-winning performer and has long been admired as the ringleader of the hip-hop collective and fashion empire Odd Future as well as the alt-comedy crew Loiter Squad, it would seem that these achievements did not correlate to an amusing or entertaining experience for the rapper on “Ridiculousness.”
Apparently, not everyone agrees that Tyler, the Creator and the Mr. Rochelle character are a miss, though, as the multi-talented musician has gone on to make several repeat appearances on “Ridiculousness” since. Either way, this example is a clear indicator as to why the controversial performer remains so divisive outside of his devoted fanbase.
