January 7, 201510 yr Author I can definitely see a summer 2015 album coming. I doubt he'd release in the traditionally busy Q4 period and it looks as though, with him changing management last summer, he needed to take extra time on perfecting the album. It really needs to come in the next 6 months though!
February 4, 201510 yr Author Has anyone listened to Frank's Aaliyah cover 'You Are Luhhhh': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjzkDemf980 His falsetto is impeccable.
April 7, 201510 yr So he has posted on Tumblr a picture of him holding his own magazine 'Boys Don't Cry' with the line "I've got two versions, I've got two versions" also with the hashtags #ISSUE1 #ALBUM3 #JULY2015 #BOYSDONTCRY being updated on his official website - https://frankocean.com/ Billboard are also claiming that a representative for Frank has confirmed to them that indeed a new publication AND new album will be being released in July 2015 by Frank, although there is no conformation of a title yet. Thinking that if there are "two versions" of "Boys Don't Cry" that is very likely to also be the album title? We will just have to wait and see. Anyway, I don't think I could be anymore excited for this. Already getting myself ready for the album of the year. 'Channel Orange' was a masterpiece and my favourite album in the last 5 years (bar MBDTF) so I am thrilled we have confirmation and cannot wait to see what direction he takes this in. New Frank is exactly what I need in my life right now, sooooooooo pumped.
April 9, 201510 yr Channel Orange is probably one of my favourite albums. It's got a really distinctive and special sound about it and I hope he stays that way. I'm trying to think of a decent metaphor for the atmosphere of that incredible run of Super Rich Kids, Crack Rock, Lost and Pink Matter - it's like being alone in the middle of an ocean, airy but claustrophobic at the same time. Pink Matter's desolate main riff makes me wish I could play the guitar instead of just trying to dress like I do.
April 21, 201510 yr Author His new single is apparently titled 'Nikes' and the video has already been shot. http://www.reddit.com/r/hiphopheads/commen...om_third_album/
April 21, 201510 yr CANNOT WAIT for the single and this entire project in general. 'Pyramids' was my song of 2012 and 'Channel Orange' was an incredible body of work. Hype! :wub:
April 21, 201510 yr Relistening to 'channel ORANGE' these last couple of days (mainly coz I bought it for like £3!) and I forgot how much I actually loved the album. SO good. I'm officially READY for new Frank.
June 15, 201510 yr Author Hasn't it been "coming next month" since 2013? Nope Frank has never specified when exactly his album will drop until only recently. "July 2015" is the first confirmed date.
June 15, 201510 yr Almost had a f***ing heart attack seeing the new posts in this thread. CAN JULY COME SOONER PLEASE
June 15, 201510 yr Nope Frank has never specified when exactly his album will drop until only recently. "July 2015" is the first confirmed date. Summer 2014: http://www.nme.com/news/frank-ocean/76642
June 15, 201510 yr Everyone knows that a vague 'when summer comes round next time' isn't a proper confirmation. Month and year and an #album3 hashtag say it all.
June 16, 201510 yr It's as good as any when it comes from the artist's own mouth. But it's nice that this time it seems 5% more likely. Even though people on Twitter think it's coming either Wednesday 15th or Monday 20th.
