FRANK OCEAN BOYS DONT CRY STREAM+ CHAT
When Frank Ocean"s debut album Channel Orange was released in 2012, the 24-year-old singer and songwriter was hailed as a once-in-a-generation talent. Both a critical and commercialsmash, the smooth-sounding album of futuristicR&B was nominated for six Grammys, winning for best urban contemporary album. Frank Ocean had arrived. Fans couldn"t wait to see what this fresh new voice would do next. Four years later, they"re still waiting.
Now, it appears Ocean"s musical hibernation is nearing its end. For real this time. According to a report in The New York Times, Ocean"ssophomore album, Boys Don"t Cry, is set to be released on Friday. It will come via an exclusive deal with Apple Music, which is expected to last two weeks before the album is made available on other streaming services.
Though the news seems reliable, it"s hard for fans to get too excited without actually being able to pump new Frank Ocean music through their headphones. While some artists may step out of the limelightcompletely, Ocean has been teasing the new release for years. The yet-to-be-released album"s website features an image of a library slip with multiple since-passed due dates and the name Boys Don"t Cryat the bottom.
Try Newsweek for only $1.25 per week
It"s not as if Ocean doesn"t realize his fans have been waiting. Hopefully, this latest in a long line of hopeful news items concerning the album"s release won"t result in another due date stamped on the library card. If it does, then we should at least be able to fine him.
