Tyler, the Creator hit the stage at the 2026 Grammy Awards tonight, performing the Chromakopia<\/em> track \u201cThought I Was Dead\u2019 and the Don\u2019t Tap the Glass<\/em> song \u201cSugar on My Tongue.\u201d Check out a video of the medley below.<\/p>\n

The rapper\u2019s performance opened with him marching through the audience in garb straight off the Chromakopia<\/em> cover. He jumped into \u201cThought I Was Dead\u201d before transitioning into \u201cSugar on My Tongue\u201d after an interlude from Regina King, who appeared as a gas station attendant. After rapping atop a red Ferrari, Tyler escaped the stage just in time for the shop to explode, leaving confetti around the stage.<\/p>\n

Tyler last performed at the Grammys in 2020, when he performed a medley from his sixth album, Igor<\/em>. That record won him his first Grammy the same year, for Best Rap Album; in 2024, he won the category again for Call Me If You Get Lost<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Tyler was up for six Grammys this year, including Best Rap Album, Best Alternative Music Album, Best Rap Performance (for Chromakopia<\/em>\u2019s \u201cDarling, I\u201d), and Best Rap Song (for Chromakopia<\/em>\u2019s \u201cSticky\u201d). Earlier in the night, he had won the first-ever Grammy for Best Album Cover for Chromakopia<\/em>. He also competed in Album of the Year against Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Leon Thomas, Clipse, Sabrina Carpenter, and eventual winner Bad Bunny.<\/p>\n
