Frank Ocean is one of the most prolific singer/songwriters of our generation. But who is he? I take a look at the reclusive superstar's early life and his evolution as an artist.

damn imagine getting a Subway sandwich by Frank ocean 🤧
Calls himself lanny bureaux
it'd take a couple years but u would know it would be the best sandwich youve ever tasted
He was probably their best sandwich rapper 😏
'Sandwich artist'
You trying 2 get that foot long huh?🤗
i got so emotional watching this, realizing how appreciative i am of his work and character. this is one of the best frank videos i've seen to date. absolutely well done! saw things in here i never heard before, and i am an avid fan! great job, keep it up dude.
Aniichi Wahi same
honestly
Listen to my videos literally a minute or less long. I write music the little pieces you'll be listening is well thought out and honest hope you fuck with it
Carolann Jane there are so much better frank videos, watch these “Weeaboos, bad internet rappers, I hate vegans, I hate Facebook, ultimate just girly things, types of people on the internet, noise complaints, I hate school, deadly twister, and deadly twister 2” these are way better frank videos
Carolann Jane i literally just welled up imagining how it feels to have people sing your own lyrics to him. I make music. Hes such an inspiration for me. Specially as an introvert
that nights performance muust've been awesome i really felt it 00:49
I got into him with his first two albums. I never really got Blonde, I failed that, need to keep listening it.
What a guy. You did awesome on this video
I grew up on music in north east denver colorado and he is good get out more so many people are missing your music is damn good i love it if you need help hit me up
Perfect
Great work, man
Great video!
I love this video so much
Is that one guy on campus with glasses that talks to Beyoncé but ride a bike to school
i want frank ocean playing at my wedding, funeral, even when i'm giving birth LMAOO
Well that’s a weird order for your plans
That's how I feel😭😭😭😭😭
'Is she just a container for the child'
Haha. also my last name is purdy too :)
Self Control at my wedding, absolutely!
Frank is honestly one of the best artists of our generation
He probably is
Bella Crociata together with Kendrick Lamar and Kanye 🥰
No cap
Nicat Muradli deadass those are the three best in my opinion
i prefer bryson tiller over frank although frank is so talented and i love that mf
I love how Tyler, The Creator wore a tshirt and snapback to the 2012 Grammy's 😂😂😂
Meat Baby Listen to my videos literally a minute or less long. I write music the little pieces you'll be listening is well thought out and honest hope you fuck with it
@@jonathancrane4283 shut up bruh we dont care
Oziris you don't care and that's cool I'm not talking to ppl like you
Jonathan Crane Don’t worry about him man, because I don’t care either
@@jonathancrane4283 stop trynna promote your fucking music saying its good and all that bullshit, you sound like a fucking clown.
When the Pink + White comes on, I cry.
For me it's Bad religion, Godspeed, skyline to, solo
ALWAYS!
y’all should listen to Voodoo
self control does it for me
Nights too
You better know someone is good when Beyoncé calls them *"the truth"*

Pshh...know what is good yourself, not what another celebrity tells you is
This is sad
Beyoncé is trash

I just want to hug Frank Ocean and thank him for helping me with everything in life. You can listen to his songs at the gym, at work, at school, going through a break up, or getting a car wash. I listen to his songs everyday, and I can honestly say that he is still super underrated, and forever will be the greatest of all time to me. Thank you Frank, you helped me find myself when I lost myself for a while. Thank you, I'm still waiting for your album and your concert.
I agree for sure, even listenting when sleeping
Junhe Su yessss his music you can listen to all year round and it just fits every seasons aesthetic like dokdfmksndjsn I wish I could hug him too
I feel the same way. Frank has helped me more than anyone else. And I know, WE NEED A CONCERT AND NEW ALBUM
I NEED THE CONCERT ASAPPPPPPPPP
Junhe Su I need a new frank ocean album, vinyl, concert, merch etc. glad he announced channel orange on vinyl, even tho he said the same last year. Really hope he drops more music soon, even if it’s just more singles like biking
The beginning of Nikes gives me the craziest feeling of euphoria every time it plays
OMGGG CANT BELIVE THERES A PERSON OUT THERE THAT IS THINKIN LIKE ME THANK U.
creativity is just about being yourself and listening to your vision
what does listening to your vision even mean lol
MGU trusting your ideas and building on them I guess.
MGU bruh are you dumb? It literally means just ignoring everyone elses output and doing solely what makes you happy
the truest comment I've read thus far
Kennedy The Don 😂😂😂
Beyonce: he’s very fast, has so many ideas
Frank Ocean: still hasn’t dropped a new album
not relevant
The albums done I know it the art work in his recent single shows different images for each song he’s just not releasing it 😭
@@semihcakmakyapan5788 hella relevant.
he has ideas but hes not ready yet
Too busy doing what's important. He got out of his deal from def Jam, bought his master's from Def Jam, kept his advance and got 20 million for Blonde from Apple.
Genius. Hopefully he has a whole stack of records ready.
My dream is to see how Ocean writes a song.
💣
Pen on paper, fingers on keypads, or just the good ol' flourish straight off the dome into the mic.
It's either one or all of the above.
@@AFO_AnalyRics there’s more to it.
probably with a glass ball and a wizard
Bro for real I wanna be in the same room as him while he's writing
To me every next album he's released has been better than the last, and that's how I'd rate his catalogue. I can't wait to see what he has next he's such a special talent like a once a decade type of artist imo I love him and his music so much lmao. Thanks Frank
pizzaguy blond felt like a side step - Orange is more listenable, blond is more innovative.
Orange is honestly a better curated experience.
Blond has aspects in the record that has sent waves that has influenced a lot of people.
tbh, orange is too boring compared to blonde for me
Same I used to absolutely love channel orange and even more than blonde but then after a while orange got a little old and blonde I could keep on listening to over and over because I'd discover new things in instrumentation, lyrics, or just how beautiful and unique it is. Like I said I'd rate them nostalgia ultra > channel orange > endless > blonde, in the order they were released. I still love all of them but like blonde is probably in my top 5 albums
I can't be friend with someone who picks Channel Orange over Blonde i'm sorry
D Ravines I’m not saying it’s better
Truly one of the most authentic artist you can find.

Alessandro Picci yung lean is another one
bruno mars laugh at this
Frank Ocean didn’t finesse Def Jam.... he just didn’t let himself get fkd over and controlled like so many other black artists.
La Murda not even just black artists, every artist can be controlled and fucked, even white artists like Billie Eillish are being controlled. And no I’m not white and I’m not trying to include white people in the discussion just cause, I just think that if even whites are being controlled in this industry, imagine us minorities. It’s hard for everyone in it, but we gotta fight for our freedom as artists.

Frank Oceans music has served as a soundtrack to all of my break ups and low points especially 'Blonde'. I cry every time I hear that album without fail no matter what point I am in life.
Brandon Castillo blonde is the soundtrack to my life. Its my favorite album of all time. He’s such a unique personality with an immense amount of charisma and sincerity. He’s a beautiful man and i hope i can be just a smidge of what he is.
Poopy yessssss that album is so nostalgic
Frank Ocean's music is something I always went to when I was depressed. Kinda feels like therapy through music
Omg, and here I thought I was the only one! 🙏😊
His stage name came from frank sinatra mixed with danny ocean (the heist film)
I thought it was ocean 11
@@schiz1130 danny ocean is the head dude in oceans 11, and he was played by frank sinatra.
Master Oshi a Iolci was talking about the OG one from the 60's
That’s really interesting actually haha I didn’t know that
I’m just gonna say this Odd Future created the greatest artists of all time Frank,Tyler,Earl, and even Syd if you listen to The Internet
AJ Villegas syd** but yes i agree
I don't know about all time but definitely of the generation and prolly the greatest group of artists ever

"Against his mother's wishes, he began to dive deeper into music" WHAT'S UP WITH PARENTS NOT SEEING THEIR KID'S TALENT DAMN
People wants safety
Bruh.. 😕😕😕
Franks dad was a failed musician and a deadbeat. So his mom didn’t want him being the same
Sometimes the opposition propels you to do your best...
Taasin Bin Hossain Alvi Exactly! Parents want a guaranteed future, not a one in a million chance. They don’t got money to waste on me chasing dreams. Lol
There’s something special about Frank’s Music- it’s called honesty. Regardless of what subject he’s singing about you can really feel his pain, his struggle as well as his happiness... every song takes you to a new place. His music is almost cinematic, you’re not just listening, you’re actually watching scenes play out in your head even if the song has no music video. That’s art! That’s beauty! Thank you frank ocean for your music
The perfect description
yes.
I rate your channel bro. Keep up the good work!
it just makes me so happy to know i’m not the only one listening to blonde everyday since 2016, when i listen to be yourself i think of my mother
It's absurd how much replay value that album has, it still remains relevant and listenable almost two years later.
Blonde and endless back to back
@@mostwickedbeats8733 I listened to Endless five times this weekend oops
Luka CH almost 3 now damn
It’s supposed to be a missed cal from a mom right??
This is my type of guy. Private, mysterious and full of so much depth. 🧡
I love how this video feels like a love letter to Frank Ocean and he definitely deserves that love. Thanks for sharing this to the world! :)
It's true that you don't hear much about Frank so seeing this help put an actual person behind the artist. Good job Jake
Frank ocean and Tyler the creator are the definition of quality and feelings !
Dumdum both water signs.. scorpio(frank) and tyler(Pisces).. water signs are ruled by emotions/emotional-depth
na just frank ocean 😅

Great video man. I'd love to work with you on an idea. Solid work.
Shoot me an email at jakezeemanvideos@gmail.com
you didn't even talk about the music before ultra. smh. that was where you knew he was gonna be huge
You got a point there. I remember the first time i listen to Rocket love it gave me goosebumps lol
He also has some older mixtapes before Ultra. Lonny Breaux is one of them and there's some other unreleased mixtapes. My roommate managed to find some of them on vinyl and ordered them.
LINK PLS
Shoutout to all the ppl that listen to the Lonny Breaux Collections before Nostalgic Ultra.
@@fatherWolt Where did he find vinyls?
Awesome video, i never even considered how famous frank was and how little he appeared on media.
frank ocean didn't submit blonde to the Grammys bc he wouldve swept it lmaooo
You got to nights before pyramids??? Lol
Lol before Novacane!!!! Before Pink Matter, Forrest Gump.... I doubt he knows any of his OF material
C J How does that matter?
Luyolo Shabalala damn bro you knew Frank Ocean back when he was already famous in the Odd future days?! You deserve a medal, maybe the biggest
White Ferrari was the first I heard. Lol.
Cause nights is better than pyramids
Ugh, I remember when I first heard his voice. Summer 2011, when I heard SHE and loved his voice off the bat. Then I listened to all of Lonny Breaux and Nostalgia, Ultra, many songs from this mix tapes I still listen to this day. I loveeee Channel Orange and his letter revealing his first love was a man, it was a vulnerable moment but an iconic one for a male in the hip hop industry. It took me a while to like Blonde, definitely a slow burner for me. But I love Frank a lot even though there's a lot hidden. I even follow his mom on Instagram for that one chance he will pop up in a photo with her LOL!
check out endless
same! i remember that summer so clearly because it was before starting college. i was obsessed with Novacane and Strawberry fields
My top 5 favorite songs of his are
1. Self control
2. Chanel
3. Pyramids
4. Swim good
5. Moon river
Night is overplayed
I love Pink Matter and Super Rich Kids and Crack Rock and Godspeed and well... he doesn't have a bad song does he?
Lens? I like Lens tho
Give pink and white a listen that songs beautiful
Moon river is a cover, he didn’t write it
For me its
Biking
American Wedding
Crack Rock
Pink Matter
Solo
He was smart to do what he did with Endless. Giving distribution to Def Jam, but the release was only a streaming video album on Apple Music. Wonder how he negotiated that and got his masters!?
I don’t think I’ve ever loved and connected to an artist, like I have with Frank. Frank Ocean knows how to transfer emotion and cause a shiver through a body. The work keeps improving and it keep me going mentally and spiritually. I would love to have a person like Frank in my life. Through every thought of hurt, sacrifice, happiness, he’s never failed to deliver a body of art. ❤️
video sums up Ocean's career up until the present perfectly, wow
His music is just so ethereal. Absolutely love him.
I came to the conclusion that people of color have been blessed with an incredible creativity and talent when it comes to music
Yea you’re an idiot
Don't say it out loud to white people because you'll hurt their feelings. They can't see color remember or say something like "Race doesn't matter" haha
Carlos Lima you’re part of the problem.
@@goingintohellhigh and u have a problem
@@GoldenBearKarl lmao definitely not white but okay moron
Why does no one ever talk about frank’s “The Lonny Breux Collection”
Carlos Jimenez because I think some people haven’t explored into knowing about Frank
I think it’s because a lot of people don’t know about it and plus tbh it has some of his weakest work
It wasnt the best
Omg yes, I am obsessed with every song on that tape.
How can I listen??
buddy, you gotta add some pizazz in your voice

I care abt Frank Ocean 😂 I get what you mean though, I really like FKA twigs and no one else does it kind of hurts
"I first heard of Frank Ocean with Swim Good and Thinkin about you, I loved those 2 tracks but I didn't really dive in until I heard Nights"
Brooo! We have very similar Frank Ocean experiences lool
Novacaine was a hit! Because of RUclips when that song came out I was able to explore more about Frank Ocean. Remind you nobody knew who he was at that time. My first eargasm was thinking of you and bad Religion and we all try. It was different and special and I was trying my hardest to put people on Frank Ocean then one day I was at the store a teenage was like have you heard that new song to her friends and started singing " A tornado flew around my room before you came..." I literally died on the inside because it was like my best friend or a personal poem I wrote to a crush is being heard for the first time! I cried because people are getting to know this Angel. He is so special! Frank can put a album out every 4 years and it would be just as good as the rest! Sorry! I just love him so much

I knew Frank was gonna be the GOAT as soon as Nostalgia dropped.
he's a representation of what music should be. it's a beautiful piece and i honestly love the fact that he's so secluded, you'd know that he didn't do it for fame. i love how eccentric his beats are
He needs to go on tour I will pay large sums of money to sit in the back row damn !!!!!
His music sounds like summer, just the vibe of summer.
my thought exactly like laying in the sun and being happy with just yourself.
I literally listen to Frank almost everyday 😭 I do hair and you can’t understand the joy of meeting a client who enjoys my playlist and who can sing along to things like American Wedding . I absolutely love Frank he just speaks spring everytime I think of him I think of lighting candles ( lol I like lighting candles ) 💙💙💙 I cant wait to see what the future holds for this great person
In my personal opinion Frank is the most profound artist of our generation. His music is just effortlessly so deep and soul soothing. Nothing comforts me like Blond. I wish i could thank Frank for everything he’s given me i wish him nothing but love and joy.
Trust me, you haven't heard his entire body of work-there's like 80 songs on the Lonny Breaux Collection and I don't even know that it's available online anywhere as I cannot find it. Had the entire thing on my old phone, but alas.
Semaj Chaffee where ?
80 is a bit of an overstatement
+Jose Lino Thank you my friend! And Kev, you're right, it was a very slight exaggeration as there are 64 tracks. And Lisa, I think it was, Jose came through with the goods!
Semaj Chaffee get on r/frankocean on resdit
Jose Lino 🐐
I feel like you brushed past his role in Odd Future,
Rumha Nexus because it was minimal tbh. It helped his popularity in another sphere though. He was working while in odd but his work wasnt as much with odd. He had a few songs with artists in odd future.
Isaac V i kinda heavily disagree, I wouldn’t say that OF was ever like his only gig, but in every Odd Future Tape Frank played a huge role in recording, writing, and preforming.
@@MrStupididy SHE was the first thing i heard of Frank Ocean
Not just that but they brushed pass everything related with Tyler and OF
@@rumhanexus1179 💭💭💭
Frank ocean really broke the musical barrier for me. I grew up listening to rock and metal, and besides Mac Miller I never really got into hip hop or r&b. Once I heard blonde I was instantly hooked, and my musical horizons have broadened ten fold. Frank is my favorite artist of all time
Ocean is such a rare artist. Been seeing a lot of people calling him "overrated" and judging him and artists more generally for not putting out more music. This in itself shows how much people think of artists/music as a commodity that is created to consume and exhaust at a fast pace. People don't consider how much is encapsulated in good music and how special one single/album can be.
My top 3 songs
1-Lost
2-Swim good
3-There will be tears
MK MK i forgot about there will be tears!
It’s been a little over 4 years since Blond. Every few months I think to myself I really hope frank releases a new project soon. Here’s to hoping.
I read the title as "Repulsive Superstar" and we were about to have words
fantastic video though!
Man
I literally just shed tears at this video.
It’s so well done, and such a beautiful homage to one of my favorite artists, even person.
I guess I now have to binge watch your videos and re-do a listening of franks full discography
before people listen to the Lonny Breaux Collection, realise that he made it before he found his voice. A lot of the songs are just pop music, stuff to get him recognised. There are a few songs on there where you can hear what he would become, but it’s not as defined. Just know it’s okay to skip some of the songs hahaha.
Jude Nelson where do you listen to it?? i can find some of the songs on RUclips but cant find the entire thing anywhere
To add on this, it's a compilation mixtape created by fans where most of the songs were either leaked or were very old songs. He had no intention to release any of those songs since they were reference tracks and unfinished ideas.
Acura Integral is amazing!
Bricks and Steel, off the LB Collection, is in my opinion one of his best musical/vocal works. The mixing in and out of the vocal layers is incredible to me and I hadn't heard him do anything even close to that song until he covered "Moon River" on Valentines day; Bless!
Only 2 or 3 songs were supposed to be released. They were all samples for other artists.
My kids were born, Blonde was playing, When I met their father a Channel Orange was playing, and before I had that life and was dreaming and wishing of something to take me away from the one I was living, Nostalgia Ultra was playing...
Now? I’m drinking a coffee in my own home after a school fun texting my fiancé listening to DHL.
One constant. FRANK. 🔥
That 12 mins went by quick. Good work!
"frank ocean is what i want music to be." has to be the line of this video. its stunning to know how well frank ocean is expressing emotions with his songs which always makes you explore more life. big fan, lots of love.
yo, this is great. keep it up
frank is the artist who made me fall in love with writhing. I was introduced to his music at a very early age and since then I still admire his art. I hope one day I’ll become as good as him
I think you meant writing* small typo but me too :/
What got me into Frank ocean was Love Crimes, loved how he sang murder murder murder, I really go into a different realm listening to his songs, and then it was Thinking About You and I had to download the whole album, I never got bored of it to this day. Songs I love are:- bad religion, Forest Gump, pink matter, Wiseman, Moon River, Eyes like the Sky, swim goooood, nature feels
did you listen to the lonny breaux collection?
Nomar Parra opinion is not fact
Nomar Parra it’s not I agree but it gives you his progression in his style and his drive in music a a whole
Very good. Time Machine is a top 20 frank song.

Whenever an artist takes control over his own creative expression it becomes authentic and real. That is music at its finest because it is almost like staring at a persons soul.
im so in love with frank i literally cry
IDK why but I cryed also
I cried as well frank touches your soul
I would be gay for Frank. No questions asked.
You have issues.
Literally cried too haha
im 13 and i have been lissening to frank for about wehn channel orange dropped and i am in love with his style of music and clothes and he have been a real insperation for me my whole life. I awlays want to share the music i lissens too but i live in sweden so there is no one in my school that likes him. but i do really do i cant expres what this guy has hepled me. i hope you understand! + i like him when he is so silent
At 8:15 Tyler stands up and says “my nigga” lmao
His music literally reaches places in my heart literally no one that knows me can reach. So therapeutic and healing
I love this so much. Frank Ocean is 100% my all time favorite artist. He’s such an amazing writer and vocalist and person. I have loved him since the beginning. There aren’t many videos about Frank out there, so thank you for making a good one.
Ive worn out all of his albums and they still arent stale to me. Endless replay value. Cant wait for the next one. Hes amazing
4:49 I literally wanna throw up at how good Nostalgia Ultra is. Goddamn that album is a work of art
What is the song playing in the background at that point? (over the birds flying)
seventyeight I think "songs for women" if I'm on the same page as you
@@tess6047 awesome. That's it! Thank you I've been listening to Frank like Cray and couldn't find it. Turns out my nostalgia mix had dropped this cut. So good so smooth.
Frank Ocean turned up when the music scene of especially pop was more superficial and vague. He propelled a cultural shift of music that people could not only relate to but, be transported into another universe due to his lyrical mastery. Definitely an inspiration and musical icon. Channel Orange is one of the all time greatest albums of the past decade.
The first song I listened to from Frank was Thinkin Bout You but the first song I really heard was Pink + White. His albums been getting me through a lot and I'm mad grateful for that. I appreciate Frank SO MUCH. Thank you ❤️
I really never usually comment on any video, but this, this is really good. And the way you mention that you be foolish to try to characterise him... Such a good video of Frank. x
Frank's music sends chills down my spine and makes me feel a way no other song or album could make me feel. This is the definition of truly amazing music right here. I would easily rate him one of the best artists of this decade.
Im not very into his stuff musically, but as a musician myself he has my deep respect on some great lyrics and most importantly originality.
This dudes different. US
Wow my dad left without explanation when I was 6, too. I like this guy already.
Frank Ocean is this generation’s Prince. For many reasons, including his elusiveness, his pure love of music and creating over money, fame or prizes, for his sheer creativity, songwriting, vocals, talent and originality, and especially for being outside the norm of his contemporaries in challenging social norms and playing against type. In other words he has the guts to be himself, even if that self makes some people uncomfortable; he’s ok with that. HE IS THE LIVING EMBODIMENT OF A TRUE ARTIST. And it’s not about the fame, money or public image, ITS ABOUT THE MUSIC. Just like Prince. So Enjoy Frank’s music. Treasure his music. Celebrate his music. Appreciate his music and appreciate him for the true artist that he is. See him live. Because sadly, he won’t be with us one day. Just like Prince, someday he will depart from us. Someday, we will only have the memories and the albums he left us. None of us gets out of here alive. Let’s celebrate the true artists, while they’re here; and let’s live while we have the time. Cause Someday our time will be up.
I love frank ocean so much I wanna see him live so bad :(
when tyler was soo happy when frank won the grammy MY HEART :))
i’m in love with this man
I love him so much😩. If I can book him when I get married I would and will😂. I’m a big fan of him! He so talented! I pray God watch over him! He is special. He’s never in drama. He’s a great person. Love him.
I know this is posted on literally every video involving frank ocean but the beat switchup on nights always gives me the chills
I've been into his music for a while now but reading that 09:00 made me realize how amazing of a writer he is. That shit hit me like a ton of bricks.
Also great video! Very informative and well edited.
Ugh I started crying when i heard Self Control at the end. That song brings me so much peace
