Personality
"I really don’t need this stress before tonight, either. One slip up with a customer and I could end up dead or worse, I’ll get robbed and have to deal with the consequences of that."

Tyler to Santana after the riot in "Back To School"

Tyler is mostly quiet and level-headed when it comes to people that aren't immediate friends of family. Due both the deaths of his father, a friend and Jeremy, Tyler has become quiet and despondet to those who aren't close. He is also extremely protective of Dreya and his friends (especially Daishen and Malachi due to their nature of gangbangers).

Tyler, even with his "gloomy" personality, is very caring and considerate, showing how he resorts to dealing with Daishen and Malachi to help his mom get rid of an eviction notice and how he is never scared to give out advice and show support, examples being Amir's problems with Danielle, the sister of their fallen friend Dalen and Tristan's situation with Lillian (even Aria once he's made aware). Tyler also isn't afraid to back down from a fight, show in both examples of when Rutherford tries to pick a fight with him and his gang for their attack on Quincy on the night of Aliyah's party.
