What makes him not on par with these artists as a singer to you? Range? Writing?
Vocally, he's not better than any of those artists. Cut the shyt.

I clearly responded to dude saying he is a "great" vocalist 'in this day in age', which is bullshyt because everybody who's followed his career knows that Frank Ocean's strongest talent was his song making/writing ability, not his singing or vocals.

Not on par when it comes to range/singing/vocals, let's not try and move goal posts. People bringing up writing/producing now to prove their point.

Quote year old posts and play dumb. Your thread implies nikkas are shytting on Frank in present time...which they aren't. Both of those thread also heavily favor Frank but since you didn't read them and went by the OP...I can see why you would end up here.

I said I like your posts but that tag ain't looking so funny in the light anymore.

have you checked the first and 2nd pages of threads in the Booth? Or even comments in this thread telling you that it's present time/worth discussing in present time? Nah. Lemme guess. This is your second dumb post in a row.

Please don't tell me you're another affected mod. :mjlol:

I'm a Frank Ocean stan but anyone in here trying to argue that he has great vocals is kidding themselves. His Grammy performance should've shut that silly argument down. As has been said in this thread, Frank's strengths have always been his lyricism and songwriting ability

:whoa: I was jus askin a question breh. I like a handful of the artists you listed more.

I've listened to Frank for years and imo his vocals have improved ALOT. This dude ain't on some drake level shyt, he's a quality singer.

No one has even talked about Frank Ocean recently :heh: so how are we slandering him? But whatever, his voice just isn't good, he can't sing for shyt.

Considering the fact that dude has more talent in his pinky than 99% of dudes rapping AND singing.

My brehs, WHO is dropping music like this?



When Nostalgia came out, I was straight up :damn: :whew:

Silly Coli posters like: "SirBiatch doesn't like anything." I love a lot of stuff. It just has to be good. And Nostalgia Ultra was GOOD. There were songs on there that were beyond anything hip hop or RnB had put out in years. "We All Try" is insane. "Songs For Women", "Swim Good" and "Novacane" are all fantastic.

Then it turns out the nikka can rap. This is better voice and flow than your so-called "top 3" rappers doing it: Drake, Kendrick and Cole.



Y'all always do this: shyt on nikkas that are actually bold enough to come with something new and powerful, yet dikkride the fukk out of mentally-stunted pandering nikkas. Then start blabbering about "runs" on some zombie shyt. Instead of shytting on Frank Ocean, reach out to dude via social media and get him inspired for that studio life. Yeah Channel Orange was instant trash but that shouldn't stop him for hooking back up with Happy Perez or whoever he needs to do to get back to that funky Nostalgia sound.

Or.... if Frank Ocean aint about that life anymore, support the next artist who can bring life, depth and groove back to this Black music we all love.

What kinda grown man defends frank ocean.

Don't think anyone is shytting on dude, just impatiently waiting for some guaranteed to be dope music.

One of the best musicians of this generation.

Channel Orange and Nostalgia, (even tho Lonny Breux tapes) still get regular play.

Matter of fact, we should start a thread about just how good those Lonny Breux tapes were :ohlawd: dude had so many nice tracks on there and they were all reference/throwaway tracks. They don't even make R&B like that anymore.
Jahron B collection and Lonny Breax tapes

The two goats been putting in work from time
