By: Sam Fleming Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange and Kanye West’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy are the only two albums that I feel truly changed my life. Maybe it is because I have played both so many times that they have soundtracked infinitely many memorable moments of my last few years, but both albums hold […]
Frank Ocean’s follow-up album has been so highly sought after for so long that it made its way into urban legend territory. After four long years, the singer has finally ended his long-term test of the world’s patience and delivered new music in two projects.

If I could speak to him directly, I would say “Frank Ocean you have become revolutionary.” Every person that breaks normative ideas of sexuality and gender becomes a revolutionist.
