    I just want to hug Frank Ocean and thank him for helping me with everything in life. You can listen to his songs at the gym, at work, at school, going through a break up, or getting a car wash. I listen to his songs everyday, and I can honestly say that he is still super underrated, and forever will be the greatest of all time to me. Thank you Frank, you helped me find myself when I lost myself for a while. Thank you, I'm still waiting for your album and your concert.

    My dream is to see how Ocean writes a song.
  • Beyonce: he’s very fast, has so many ideas Frank Ocean: still hasn’t dropped a new album
  • Frank Oceans music has served as a soundtrack to all of my break ups and low points especially 'Blonde'. I cry every time I hear that album without fail no matter what point I am in life.

    There’s something special about Frank’s Music- it’s called honesty. Regardless of what subject he’s singing about you can really feel his pain, his struggle as well as his happiness... every song takes you to a new place. His music is almost cinematic, you’re not just listening, you’re actually watching scenes play out in your head even if the song has no music video. That’s art! That’s beauty! Thank you frank ocean for your music
  • @ch1m3ra42
    Frank Ocean didn’t finesse Def Jam.... he just didn’t let himself get fkd over and controlled like so many other black artists.
  • @Bishcona
    To me every next album he's released has been better than the last, and that's how I'd rate his catalogue. I can't wait to see what he has next he's such a special talent like a once a decade type of artist imo I love him and his music so much lmao. Thanks Frank <3
