Odd Future have endured some awkward growing pains over the past couple years: the long-absent Earl Sweatshirt’s exile (at a Samoan boarding school, it turned out), a disappointing solo debut from de facto crew leader Tyler, a media all too willing to be predictably shocked by the group’s obvious shock-tactic trolling. They emerge into relative (and in Earl’s case literal) adulthood in 2012 with the Loiter Squad TV show (aka “Something for Japser and Taco to Do”), the well-received new O.F. Tape, Vol. 2, and its jubilant 10-minute posse cut video for “Oldie.” Oh, and free Earl. Expect tonight to be a cartoonishly offensive celebration. ERIC GRANDY
