The Frank Ocean slander is hilarious to me

[Pinyapplesuckas]

He fukked up by coming out. He thought he'd be a trendsetter but nope. Ain't nobody wanna listen to a gay singer, especially the black community.

yeah honestly anyone i knew who was bigging him up completely stopped after that...my one white homie is the only one to stick by him...

i didnt even give dude a chance until he came out...i wanted to hear how deceptive it was and if it was obvious or not...and it wasnt all that obvious...he got one over on a lot of people lol

that shyt is wack as fuk sounds like some late 90's/early 2000s white, boy band R&B

I need receipts. I've never heard White boy band R&B sound anything like this.

The song is brilliant. The guitar has bits of afropop and highlife in there, which makes it African aka Black as fukk. I played this track for my dad and he loved it. It has that element of music from back home.

"Strawberry Swing": This is one of several potential album cuts with Afro-pop and high-life influences: Here, distortion-free finger-picked guitars which sound straight out of Mali mix with a heavy bassline and psychedelic synths. "My Mum comes from Zimbabwe, so I spent a lot of time there," says Martin. "I used to work in a studio where people played that."

But I'll let y'all cook

You probably never heard of him, but he's got 2 projects that are on par with Frank Ocean's work.

Top 3 standout songs he's made?

Like I said, I know most of y'all are dying to expose the chinks in SirBiatch's armor rather than discuss music. But don't worry. You'll get me one day

two threads in the last two years? seriously? you can't bear this dude being criticised twice in the last two years?

 

[Fortunate Lee]

he should have kept that homo business to himself. but i still listen to some nostgalia tracks

one of the best covers period

The weird thing is that he said that he ONCE had a strange feeling for a dude way back, had one gay song, which might or might've not been inspired by his own feelings. And fools act like teenagers and call him a gay singer, when all his songs are about women except one.

He fukked up by coming out. He thought he'd be a trendsetter but nope. Ain't nobody wanna listen to a gay singer, especially the black community.

He sold like 650k with no radio single, 92/100 on metecritic, no interviews, minimal social media, nothing with his debut album, "no one wants listen to a gay singer"

Brothers in the hood might not want that they might think it makes them gay, but modern brothers will and there's plenty of us.

His shyt was so nice that he got the grammy to close the award with that gay song, which wasn't even a single.

*sticks head in thread door*

Ayo...it's only "slander" if it's purposely wrong.

*closes thread door on way out*

 

[Mike the Executioner]

Just a thought: Why does it matter so much that he's gay? People in this thread saying that's a criticism they have for him need to grow up. His sexuality isn't going to affect you and he isn't the first (or last) singer to come out of the closet/be implied to be in it.

"I wish he wasn't gay." The hell?

Then he would have capitlized on it and released a 2nd, or at least his label would have pushed it. But they didnt. Cuz hes a fakkit

 

[up in here]

i never really paid attention to the media circus when he came out so can someone just clarify, is he gay or not?

 

[Pazzy]

He wasn't that good to begin with and his hyped disappeared when he came out the closet. He was then seen for who he is. An average ass singer.

 

[T'Challa Trillmonger]

just in for the riiiiiiiiide

 

[GrindtooFilthy]

OP the worst poster on the entire coli

he really is

"im that nikka with the hair poppin pills fukking bytches living life so trill"

frank could never pull off a track like tell your friends or losers or can't feel my face


he's still that nikka though i was just jamming to super rich kids the other day

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

I think he's a dope artist and makes good music. Still listen to Nostalgic Ultra.

I honestly don't care wtf this guy does in his free time outside of making music.
