AzChike has a new fan in Tyler, the Creator, both for his music and, oddly enough, his skincare routine.

On Saturday, Chike hopped on his X page to let his followers know that he had just finished a random FaceTime call with Tyler. According to Chike, Tyler complimented his skin and prominent facial features while also admitting he loved the song "1UP" featuring FrostyDaSnowmann. Chike released the song in 2020, and it came with an accompanying music video.

"So this n***a Tyler randomly FT me tonight & said I got good cheek bones & clear skin. Dawg is really funny," Chike tweeted. "He also said he a fan & helike the song '1UP' lol he ratchet in other words...Mind you, this my first time talking to him ever. I fuck wit em fsho."

A fan joked that Tyler was trying to hit on Chike, and in response, the rapper said his West Coast brethren cleared any confusion by throwing the word "pause" out there before complimenting him. Chike also let fans know he just had to share the news, as he's always trying to play the cool guy role.

"Just had to tell yall tht. Cus I am 'Mr. Too Cool' sometimes. But tht had me fanned out a lil bit," he wrote.

Tyler is no stranger to skincare routines, as he's made it clear in the past that all men should be taking care of themselves. In a conversation with Converse back in 2020, Tyler gave men entering their 20s some important advice about self-care and looking their best.

"Be healthy, don't look gross cause a lot of n***as my age are fucking disgusting," said Tyler. "N***as hit 24 and just what happened? I don't know. I see it all the time…do not get gross. I don't know what that means to you, but do not let yourself go. That's not even a life lesson, n***as should wake up and be on top of their shit. And get your nails done. N***as be shaking my hand with dark ass fingernails with dirt. When you get to a certain age, getting manicures is important."
