Album
Blonde alternatively titled blond is the second studio album by American singer Frank Ocean. In 2013, Ocean confirmed that his follow up to Channel Orange would be another concept album. Initially known as Boys Don't Cry and teased for a July 2015 release, the album suffered several delays and was the subject of widespread media anticipation. 50 видео Воспроизвести все Микс Frank Ocean - Blond 2016 Full AlbumYouTube.

Though its rich in luxurious wordplay and melody, Ocean favors impressionism here, from the mood-altering moves of Nights to the velveteen drift of White Ferrari. The result is oblique yet surprisingly emotional and intimate-a tour de force that sneaks up on you. At first, Frank Ocean was simply a great storyteller. Then he became the story-an avatar for all of our fluid modern ideals. He could be the dynamic human of the future, exploding age-old binaries with an eloquent note, melting racial divisions with a devastating turn of phrase or quick flit to falsetto. You represent the race, and you have responsibilities that go beyond your art. Frank Ocean. Released August 20, 2016. Blonde Tracklist. Blonde is the second studio album by the enigmatic Frank Ocean. The album was released on August 20, 2016, following a four-year hiatus after the release of channel ORANGE. Fans have speculated that the use of blond on the album cover and blonde on the album listing is a reference to Franks bisexuality and the themes of duality between masculinity and femininity in his life with blond being the masculine form, and blonde being the feminine. The word blonde itself holds two interpretations. This poster displays an image of Frank Ocean with the blond font. This album was huge for Frank Ocean and a personal favorite.

Frank Ocean's long-awaited new studio album is his most adventurous project to date. Author: Yoh Phillips. I believe the first listen of BlondBlonde is very crucial. It is the listen that closes a chapter thats been on-going for the last four years, and the beginning of a new one. For Frank, for fans, and for all the brilliant memes, jokes, and trolls that were made during the wait, it has been one hell of a ride
