Tyler the Creator is going viral for joking about the “extreme” schedule he had to endure while filming “Marty Supreme.”

The rapper has previously spoken about his preference for going to bed early, a habit he claimed to maintain even when touring.

Such comforts were not available on the set of the Josh Safdie film, however, where Tyler said production sometimes stretched through the night.

The California-born artist has actually been acting professionally for more than a decade, though his role in “Marty Supreme” marks the first major film part of his career.

In the clip shared on X, Tyler is seen humorously complaining about how filming “Marty Supreme” disrupted his sleep routine.

Given his preference for early nights, the musician joked he was not too pleased that director Safdie sometimes had the cast working until sunrise.

“I [usually] go to sleep at 9 p.m., bro,” Tyler explained. “This motherf-cker Josh Safdie has us out here at 6 a.m., talking about ‘Alright y’all! See y’all tomorrow!’ B-tch, it is tomorrow already!”

Most of the film’s scenes were shot in New York City, with some additional sequences being filmed in Japan. Only a small team consisting of key cast members reportedly traveled overseas for that portion of principal photography.

Tyler Once Revealed He Still Prioritized Sleep Even While Touring

Many musicians keep irregular or late schedules due to the demands of touring, performances, and studio work.

But in an older interview, Tyler revealed that his success has long been tied to a strict early-to-bed, early-to-rise routine.

“Oh, I get my sleep, I don’t play,” he said. “I’ve always been an early bird.”

Tyler explained that he would rather be in bed than out late at night, unless he had important business to attend to.

“8.45 p.m., oh, what are we doing? Nothing? I’m going home to my bed,” he continued. “I will make out with that pillow, brother!”

The rapper also confirmed that he tries to maintain the same routine even when he is touring.

Although Tyler appeared to be speaking lightheartedly, not everyone saw the humor in his comments.

In the replies to the X post, several users criticized the budding actor for what they viewed as a sense of entitlement.

“Crying but still filming. For the kind of money Hollywood pays, you can endure a few months without normal sleep,” one commenter wrote.

Another added, “This is the most elitist sh-t I’ve ever heard. He is literally whining about a regular 9-5.”

Not all of the responses were negative, however. Some fans pointed out that Tyler’s apparent discipline had clearly paid off.

“It was worth it at the end of the day,” one user said. “Dude, y’all were nominated a lot of times.”

The Rapper Expands Into Hollywood With ‘Marty Supreme’ Role

Tyler’s first substantial acting experience came through “Loiter Squad,” a sketch comedy show created by the Odd Future collective.

The multi-talented artist also co-created and voiced the main character in Adult Swim’s “The Jellies” between 2017 and 2019.

In 2018, Tyler appeared in an episode of the Jim Carrey–led Showtime series “Kidding,” marking one of his more conventional live-action acting appearances outside his own projects.

However, it would be another seven years or so before he marked his most prominent live-action film appearance yet with “Marty Supreme.”

During a panel discussion with the cast of “Marty Supreme” at the 2025 New York Film Festival, Tyler set aside the banter and acknowledged the opportunity that Safdie had given him despite his limited acting experience.

According to Billboard, the performer explained that Safdie’s directing style made the process feel so natural that he never felt like he had “to act” in the traditional sense.

Tyler also admitted that he would have accepted almost any role just for the chance to work with the “Uncut Gems” filmmaker.

“I play piano and put on cool clothes. I do not act at all,” he said. “This man is so good that I trusted him and said, ‘Anything you need. I don’t want to read this script. I will show up and be there.’”
