‘DON’T TAP THE GLASS’ is Already Facing Controversy

It's getting ugly online.

Back in 2018, Virginia rapper $ilkmoney dropped I Hate My Life and I Really Wish People Would Stop Telling Me Not To (a title that screams “good vibes only”). The project featured Tyler, the Creator on two tracks (“Naga” and “Kitt-Katt”), and Tyler even handled some of the production. 

At the time, it seemed like mutual respect, weird beats, and lyrical chaos were bringing them together. Fast-forward to 2025, though, and that friendship has apparently been thrown in the trash thanks to Tyler’s new album DON’T TAP THE GLASS.

 

“Mommanem” vs “My Potna Dem”

On July 21, $ilkmoney called out Tyler (and randomly Andre 3000, too?) for allegedly copying his work. 

“Tyler, the Creator, stop sucking my d*** n****. Get your own swag. Andre 3000, stop sucking my d***. I’m sick of you little weird ass n***** that I work with thinking you can run off with the swag…Stop eating d***. You weird ass n*****. Do you baby, I’m tryna do me,” he said

In a follow-up post, $ilkmoney zeroed in on Tyler’s DON’T TAP THE GLASS track “Mommanem,” accusing it of biting his 2019 song “My Potna Dem.”

“All you n***** get off my d*** in my DMs. F*** you and this n****. Nobody talking about titles. This n**** copying ‘My Potna Dem.’ Eat a d***,” he said. 

Tyler hasn’t responded back yet to his former collaborator, but those online are calling him out for not only being wrong…but the group Rich Kidz (featuring Young Dro) dropping a track of the same name back in 2009. So $ilkmoney might need to slow his roll on the originality front.

Whether this turns into a full-blown beef or just a one-sided rant remains to be seen. Considering, though, that Tyler’s already warned the world to “STOP PLAYING WITH ME,” it might be in everyone’s best interest to log off, take a walk, and maybe touch some grass.
