See You Again

"See You Again" is a song written, produced, and performed by American rapper Tyler, the Creator featuring vocals from Korean-Ukrainian singer-songwriter Jisoo. It was released as the fourth single from Tyler's fourth studio album Flower Boy (2017) on August 29, 2017. The single went viral on TikTok, leading the song to enter several charts around the world for the first time as a sleeper hit in April 2023.
== Background ==
Tyler, the Creator originally wrote the song for former One Direction member Zayn Malik, who turned it down. According to Tyler, Malik "flaked on studio time twice" and he kept the song for himself.
== Music video ==
The music video was directed by Tyler, the Creator under the alias of Wolf Haley and uploaded on YouTube on August 8, 2018. In the opening scene, A$AP Rocky talks on the phone, as Tyler gets ready for another workday in the close quarters of his aircraft carrier. Jisoo appears far away at sea on a rescue boat with other rowers, all of them wearing yellow raincoats. The scene shifts to Tyler on the top deck of the military ship, donning a yellow beret and then flips to Tyler oddly wearing a ghost bed sheet, featuring only the eyes poked out, along with a bucket hat. A tire swings in the background, and when he is unveiled, a swarm of bees attack the screen.
