Roger Waters’ 8 Most Incendiary Quotes
It’s been over 35 years since ex-Pink Floyd bassist and lyricist Roger Waters left the band that made him famous, but he’s still finding ways to keep himself busy.

We won’t ruin the surprise at the end, but it does feature a cameo from Taco Bennett, alumnus of Tyler’s Odd Future collective and current co-star of FXX’s Dave. Check out “Side Street” below. Tyler, the Creator’s last album was 2019’s Igor. Earlier this year, he unve...
