'I'm The Subject Of The Decade's Most Ridiculous Myths', Says Odd Future's Earl Sweatshirt

Odd Future’s Earl Sweatshirt has spoken out after returning home from an all-boys boarding school in Samoa – and claimed that he has been the focus of some of “the most ridiculous myths and theories of the decade.”
Sweatshirt has been in the school for a long while, and, although he’s considered a part of the rap collective, has only appeared on their first album. The group announced that they’d be putting out another record later this month (Feb 20th) in ‘OF Tape Vol2’, but also revealed that Sweatshirt won’t be featuring on it. But, yesterday, it was revealed that Sweatshirt has returned – and is back with a brand new track. Now, using his brand new Twitter (he managed to gain over 100,000 Tweets in just two days), he’s claimed that he’s one of the most speculated about individuals of the decade.
“The people who know absolutely nothing voice their opinions the loudest. Jesus,” Earl wrote. “I'm the subject of the most ridiculous myths and theories of this decade. Fuck expectations.” He then jokingly added “oh. btw. i do not remotely fuck with tyler craven even kind of.”
Sweatshirt was part of a hoax created by bandmate Tyler Craven in November last year, who trolled Odd Future fans by telling them that Earl had returned from Samoa.
