Music Roundup: Breaking down ‘Blonde’ by Frank Ocean
(08/24/16 11:04pm)
Where is Frank Ocean? That’s the question we’ve been asking ourselves for the past three years. Frank released his mixtape “Nostalgia, Ultra” in 2011 and his album “Channel Orange” in 2012. He made few appearances and features over the next few years, turning his back to the music world and the public eye. After teasing his album, called “Boys Don’t Cry,” in July 2015, he seemed to have vanished, leaving us in constant speculation on his whereabouts and the status of his album. Finally, after four long years, vague hints, a strange live broadcast on his website and countless memes, Frank Ocean is back. “Blonde” was released Saturday, and after having it on repeat over the past five days, I’m ready to review it.
