Tyron (stylised in all caps) is the second studio album by British rapper Slowthai. It was released on 12 February 2021 through Method Records.
In an interview with the BBC prior to the 2019 Mercury Prize, Frampton revealed that he had already planned his next two projects following his debut album Nothing Great About Britain (2019), explaining: “I’ve got the concepts and I’ve got the ideas and I’ve got the titles. I’ve even got names of songs and the messages. It’s all there – I just have to go in and do the work”. He further said that he would continue to focus on social commentary on future work, but would “look for other angles to explain and express things”. At the event, he confirmed to NME that he had begun work on his second album, adding that it would showcase growth and “be its own entity” rather than a sequel to his debut album.
In an interview with Dazed in June 2020, Frampton said that listeners could expect “two sides of Tyron as a person” on the album, “the person who got to this place and the person who is trying to be”, and elaborated that it would showcase both his softer and harder sides. He further took influence from a wide array of artists including Westside Gunn, Deb Never, Jamie T and the Arctic Monkeys.
