My friend showed me this song. It means a lot. He loved making skate videos and he was a designer and a beautiful soul! So kind and smart. He passed away February 6 2020. I listen to this to feel his presence strong once again.
An artist who is definitely not overrated, on the contrary, he is underrated and is famous for being underrated. He begins his career by writing lyrics for many artists such as Justin Bieber, Beyonce, Alicia Keys and John Legend. After attracting attention with Nostalgia Ultra, he achieved success with his album Channel Orange, which was entirely produced by himself, and Blonde is one of the other classic albums of today. Also, Kanye West was actually one of the reasons for his fight with Drake. Even though Kanye West did not work with the record company, Kanye interrupted one of his concerts and played ridiculous Drake songs on the radio, but Frank Ocean makes good music and you don't play him. Even though he is a closed artist (he does not write lyrics for artists like he used to), many artists he works with and does not work with systematically praise Frank Ocean. What makes Frank Ocean special from other artists is his songwriting, his unique abstract storytelling, his way of expressing emotions and of course his vocals. He is absolutely unique in these matters, since the structure of his songs is different from the structure of the songs we are used to, Frank Ocean is generally not heard on the radio or in the streets. Frank Ocean does not make head-shaking songs because he writes songs that you will get lost in while listening to them. They are not very grammy friendly, they do not give awards, they do not share with other artists. He doesn't perform in duets, but considering this is the case, it is very unfair to call this man overrated.
DMilan if you look closely at dhl at the bottom, theres like 15-20 silhouettes matching his pose on the cover of dhl, in my room, and like 15 others, implying there’s more songs. probably an album
It feels so weird this song was dropped nearly 5 years ago, feels like only yesterday i felt the excitement of being 1 hour early to this song. Hope you come back man, we need you.
Oh my god this is the most beautiful thing. And then, so gut-wrenching. The way he flips meaning and feeling is incredible beyond words. Thank you Frank. 🙏🏻
I hope frank doesnt leave again for a hot minute. He’s probably accumulated a bunch of music during the time hes been away, but its time for us to take a listen of your masterpiece.
I love it so much, thank you Frank for the amazing pieces of art you gave us your whole career long, you are a blessing, drop some more songs or even an album whenever you want, it’s all fine
Because lust for life is also a common phrase, a famous book about book/film about Van Gogh and was an Iggy Pop album title 40 years before Lana del rey's album. If you only know the phrase from her you need to get out more.
@@robertosaligumbajr.5328 Of course. You'd probably recognize the iggy pop song, it's fairly widely used in pop culture, music etc. And both the book and film are a huge part of Van gogh's popularity.
