Ocean went to his Tumblr page Saturday (August 20) to speak out on his highly-anticipated new music release.
Frank’s newest solo offering Blond, previously titled Boys Don’t Cry, arrived Saturday (August 20) evening.
Now, Ocean’s second album, Blond, (formerly known as Boys Don’t Cry) has officially arrived. The 17-track LP features a wealth of new material, including new track “Nikes,” which dropped earlier today. Stream Blond here via Apple Music. (The FADER)
Heading into the weekend, rapper Lil B hinted at his possible appearance on Ocean’s new album.
“Frank Ocean was amazing. He called me to come out and do some stuff for his album, Boys Don’t Cry, that’s coming out. Frank is amazing. He’s a beautiful man with a beautiful voice. He’s a very strong man, a very strong person. Anything that I can do to help him, I will,” B said in an interview. “If Frank releases [Boys Don’t Cry]. Let’s see what Frank releases. Frank has the material.” (Dazed Digital)
New reports claim Ocean may have switched up his album’s title.
Rolling Stone has confirmed that Endless is a different project from his proper new album. That album, set for release by Apple this weekend, was previously called Boys Don’t Cry, but Rolling Stone has learned that the singer has scrapped that title in favor of an alternate title. (Rolling Stone)
