<p>If you blink, you might miss Lebron James' cameo in Tyler, the Creator's new music video.</p>
<p>In the music video for the rapper's song "STOP PLAYING WITH ME" released on Monday, July 21, Tyler, 34, dances around a room surrounded by two giant speakers and crumpled newspaper blowing around. He also speaks directly to the camera, wearing a leathery sweatsuit with a furry collar and blue rubber gloves.</p>
<p>A blue and red poster that reads "NO GLASS TAPPING" can be seen in the background, referring to his new album title, DON'T TAP THE GLASS, which dropped Monday.</p>
<p>At a couple of points in the short but high-energy music video, the Los Angeles Lakers star and his business partner Maverick Carter could be seen nodding their heads along to the beat.</p>
<p>"F40, this the brand-new coupe/Stuff it with bitches, it's what the f--- I do/Caught the plane with Mav, Bron there too," Tyler raps in the second verse of the song when the duo appear.</p>

<p>James, 40, wore a pixelated patterned denim jacket and matching bucket hat covering his eyes — but the 6'9" NBA star is admittedly hard to miss.</p>
<p>"STOP FKN PLAYING WITH ME!!!! 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤," James posted on X to celebrate Tyler's music video. Days before, he seemed to have teased a collaboration with the rapper. "👀 LFG!!!!! 😤😤😤😤," he wrote, quoting Tyler's X post about July 21.</p>
<p>Pusha T and Malice of the rap duo Clipse also have cameos in the video.</p>
<p>Tyler posted about DON'T TAP THE GLASS on Instagram on July 21, reflecting on how the album should encourage movement, like it did during his listening party. "I asked some friends why they don't dance in public and some said because of the fear of being filmed," he began.</p>
<p>"I thought, damn, a natural form of expression and a certain connection they have with music is now a ghost. It made me wonder how much of our human spirit got killed because of the fear of being a meme all for having a good time."</p>

<p>"I just got back from a 'listening party' for this album and man it was one of the greatest nites of my life. 300 people, no phones allowed, no cameras, just speakers and a sweatbox. Everyone was dancing. Moving. Expressing. Sweating. It was truly beautiful," Tyler continued.</p>
<p>The musician, whose real name is Tyler Gregory Okonma, said that he played the album front to back twice, and noticed how pent-up energy "finally got released," and we "carved the idea of letting more of it out."</p>

<p>"There was a freedom that filled the room. A ball of energy that might not translate to every speaker that plays this album, but man, did that room nail it."</p>
<p>He wrote that the album "was not made for standing still." "Any type of movement is recommended to maybe understand the spirit of it. Only at full volume."</p>
