Fans were screaming and applauding as Tyler performed songs from his just-released new album, IGOR, as well as other bops from his long discography. But what really got the crowd riled up was seeing the rapper dance while wearing a bright neon green suit, sunglasses, and a blonde bowl-cut wig.

While his moonwalking skills were obviously comparable to Michael Jackson, a lot of people saw his whole look and vibe as a shoutout to Mary J. Blige.

Tyler himself also tweeted, "im mary j blige." So, yes, it is confirmed. Let it be known that Tyler, The Creator and Mary J. Blige are basically twins. Though, sadly, MJ Blige has yet to comment on any of this.
