Breh I hope you are 12 if you think Bieber, Selena or Rita is anywhere close to Frank's level musically. :leostare:

Those three are real musicians. They make catchy music. They make melodic music. I like melodies. Frank also isn't that good of a singer. Dude is overhyped. What is his hype all about? His songs aren't that good to me. he doesn't have a good voice at all.

Frank's talent is not his vocals tho. His songwriting ability and talent for crafting stories > anyone you just listed. And even with his limited range, he makes it work for him. Bad Religion live >

Frank writes his own melodies, same cannot be said for them if you love melodies so much. It is almost as if you are suggesting Ocean isn't a "real musician" ... as if he doesn't produce, write (for himself and a lot of other artists) as well as sing his own records. :heh:

Obviously Usher and Weeknd would be better if you were just judging them by vocal abilities. Lol @ the rest of the list tho. (and I actually like some Rita and Bieber, but c'mon b :laugh:)

Frank Ocean's music, lyrics and "story crafting" is only mind blowing to people who listened to nothing but hiphop their whole lives.

I listened twice. Nothing here blew my mind.

As opposed to "I love you like a love song" and "If I was your boyfriend?" :whoo:

No one's gonna up it?

google viperial and check out the albums section on said website.

I've never heard a Frank Album before, just a few songs on Sirius and couldn't get into any music while at the gym, so I assume it's more of a relaxed mood/mind state kind of music. will have a deep listen just based on the feedback here and try to see what the hype is all about.

Yeah that's why he's getting classic reviews by all these pop, hipster mags/sites?

It's like a general consensus that he's one of the best in music right now, amongst music heads.
He has yet to take on the mainstream, but amongst the people who know, they know.
