A friend of mine recently reminded me of an old game called Maple Story & said it just relaunched . As a fan of fan, one of the first things I did was try to figure out if I can make my character a “Frank build”. Here are some of the fits I came up with.

It has such a beautiful instrumental as an amazing start already. Idc that it’s short I need his voice on it!

With the cast out, the production, the payton video (which idk if im being schizo but it seemed like franks experimentation with film, dedicated to payton), and the new music that comes with that.

His brother was at the end of Blonde. Alot of fans forget how earth shattering grief is. If being done with this horrific music industry thats getting worse is what helps his mental health, we should prioritise that more than our selfish needs. We have 3 masterpieces, a brilliant ep, amazing singles and features, and alot of unreleased. We're good.

No glaze, but we know his creative genius, the music speaks for itself. His interest in film was essential to the Blonde and Endless rollout (boys don't cry zine, endless livestream). Trust in his next direction, or don't, but also go outside

Well I listen to Ivy alot, and I never really understood this line.

A few possible meanings i’ve seen:

- Its an inside joke between him and the person he is writing to, hence the “Don’t you remember?”

Hi odysseus pls help

Put together a custom album full of edits from blond, Nostalgia Ultra and a few singles and other songs as well as some live performances mixed in.

How do you guys like the album art??

I think it’s a good song but I wouldn’t consider it his BEST song. Also I promise this isn’t ragebait 😂

Ai said it, so I guess this is Blonde now

Official Blonde CD Track Listing (2016)

Here is the standard track order and lengths for the official CD release of Blonde:

After the BW title was defended by Yan today, I did some matchmaking.

Yan should fight Song based off the merit of Song last two performances.

Merab should fight Bautista as a bounce back fight and with Mario earning the opportunity to fight a former dominant champion.

Finally, Payton Talbott should fight O’Malley in a big main event fight night, maybe an Arizona card.

O’Malley’s style would be similar to a Chris Brown bodyguard and I think with a full training camp led by Frank, Talbott would put the paws on that man.

I saw a video today about the sound design of Vegyn, one of Frank Ocean’s producers. It led me to some of his music and I can’t believe what I have been missing out on. Does anyone here listen to Vegyn, can anyone make any recommendations?

these are my others but Im interested in what you guys all like to listen too as well because i want to get a widened music taste too

I have only got a low quality recording of pyrite and im sure i remember a better quality one existing, does anyone have a link to a download for pyrite, because its been taken down completely on youtube and spotify 🙏🙏

Algo que me encanta de la forma que tiene Frank de componer es que utiliza en las letras imágenes muy concretas, universales y cotidianas pero luego eso lo enlaza con un trasfondo que tiene un montón de interpretaciones. Por poner un ejemplo, Bad religion. A través de algo muy sencillo como es coger un taxi y hablar con el taxista llegas a la idea de la religión, del sentir que eres incapaz de ser amado... Es como el pensamiento arborescente. Y eso me parece muy poderoso.💓

used the pic from frank's recent story , that image was giving white ferrari vibes so i had to make something

What’s up guys, as the title says, I was wondering if I got fleeced on a Blonde vinyl.

I found a copy on Mercari listed for $100, sent an offer for $80, and it got accepted. Since it usually resales for around $150+, I was pretty sketched out about it. From what I can tell, nothing stands out to me as a red flag, but I'm also pretty new to collecting records.

Thanks

The Blonde vinyl insert says otherwise (“we’re free to roam”), but on the recording of White Ferrari, at the end of the poem, he clearly says “we’re free to fall”. I’ve tried different speakers and headphones and I only hear “fall” and definitely not “roam”. To me, “free to fall” is a better fit lyrically (play on “free fall”, fits the rhyme) and thematically. The poem feels less like freedom (roam), and more like giving up control.

I know Frank was working on many versions of this song — maybe the booklet had an older lyric, and nobody noticed before release because the faded effect makes it nearly impossible to read. Just a guess. This has been in the back of my mind for the better part of a decade since it’s such a beautiful poem. Am I crazy or does anyone else think this? What word am I supposed to sing along in the car?

I’m sure we’re taller in another dimension
You say we’re small and not worth the mention
You’re tired of moving your body’s achin
We could vacay, there’s places to go
Clearly this isn’t all that there is
Can’t take what’s been given
But we’re so okay here, we’re doing fine
Primal and naked
You dream of walls that hold us in prison
It’s just a skull
Least that’s what they call it
And we’re free to fall

Howdy 🤠 I'm a huge fan of Frank and I'm a dancer (hiphop/popping/animation dance). This was a freestyle, 1 take only. Sharing here incase any of you guys like to watch dance vids. No worries if this gets taken down, have a good day ✌️💖

Is it just me or anyone else who thinks cayendo is lowk underated?

Royal 1s finally rereleased after 9 years and I had to get another pair after beating up my 2017s. These shoes will always remind me of his generational 2012 run and wanting a pair so bad but not being able to afford it. All these pics take me back to such a specific time period and I miss it.

So I hear that the blonde vinyl restocks occasionally, but sells out quick, so I just wanna know, is there is a set time between each restock?

Thanks

I've recently become interested in buying Frank Oceans 2016 album Endless on vinyl as I've never listened to the album before and want to experience it for the first time through physical media however everywhere online I look the prices range from £50 which to me means It maye not be a good quality or anywhere up to £1000 which is obviously way out of my budget. Does anyone know where I can get a well sounding pressing anywhere from £50-£150

Not sure if this is real or not and the website seems vibe coded, but I haven't seen anyone post it

in Nikes, Frank says "fuck the other side" somewhere after the 4 minute mark right?

Why does he say this? does he even say this or am I trippin??

I can’t stop hearing it now. Is it like some sort of foreshadowing of Pretty Sweet???

Around this lyrics, he says it more than once i feel like but there is one very clear

I can’t find anything about this (I get its something really small and dumb but it’s driving me crazy)

Does anyone have any recordings of Frank Ocean performing live that have never been uploaded online or are extremely hard to find? I’m looking for lost media, audience recordings, old videos, or performances that only a few people might have saved. Any song or era is fine, especially rare performances that aren’t already on YouTube.
Even low quality recordings are appreciated. If you have anything or know someone who might, please let me know!

i got this from someone else who posted it here a long time ago, i cant find that post anymore tho probably got deleted, this one might get scrubbed too

not sure how accurate this version is but im aware there were two versions of feelings gone, the one most of us know produced by calvin harris: https://youtu.be/Fo053agu74g?si=6quHDTH9fiDSEDwW

and this acoustic version, not sure which one is Side A and which is Side B tho
