So dude had the
#2 album in the country two months before the VMA's but no one knew who he was?
Dude was on Jimmy Fallon and was announced as a musical guest for SNL before the VMAs but no one knew who he was?
Frank Ocean was on a MellowHype track that was on a tape released months before Tyler performed on Fallon.
He got arrested for speeding and having weed in the car. And his album went gold.
Frank was nominated for AOTY. The five nominees for AOTY always perform solo sets at the Grammys. I don't remember people bytching when Kanye, India Arie or Alicia Keys performed when their debut albums were nominated for AOTY and no one knew who the fukk they were they year before.
