"Noid" is a 2024 song by American rapper Tyler, the Creator, released as the lead single from his eighth studio album, Chromakopia. The song focuses on the paranoia (cf. "paranoid") experienced by Tyler as a figure in the public eye. It was released alongside a music video featuring American actress Ayo Edebiri.[1][2][3]

The song samples "Nizakupanga Ngozi" by Zambian band Ngozi Family from their 1977 album 45,000 Volts.[4] The vocal sample features lead singer Paul Ngozi singing in his native Nyanja language about being respectful when visiting his home.[5]

Music video

[edit]

The music video was directed by Tyler under his Wolf Haley alias, on October 21, 2024.

It depicts Tyler in his masked St. Chroma persona as he pushes through crowds of people and meets crazed fans. A woman (played by actress Ayo Edebiri) runs towards Tyler, mocking his old personality by waving a gun in his face and screaming. Several more fans follow and confront Tyler bearing unsettling grins while the rapper hurredly tries to get away from them. Throughout the video, Tyler hallucinates being robbed within his home, being tailed while driving, installing numerous locks on his doors and peeking through a curtain, terrified. It also often cuts to Tyler dancing in a room with flashing lights and shielding himself from them. At the end of the video, Tyler roams around an empty lot with his shadow moving independently from him, before he falls to his knees screaming as the camera moves away from him.
