Blonde album is exactly 1hour long and the beat switch on this song marks exactly 30minuts dividing the album in half, just a fun fact.
Lluc Garceran Rejano This is one of my favorite albums ever made and never knew this, thank you.
Shit I didn't know that. That's fire 🔥 This made me fall in love with it even more
He also did that In channel orange. In the song pyramids it splits
piewiffer Endless is it’s own album. Separate from Blonde. I feel like it’s Blonde/Boys Dont Cry.
YesImTweakin pretty sure bdc is endless
"You've got to imagine a transition is coming" LMAO
Chase Holder boy do i a got a transition for you
Chase Holder LMAO JUST FOR THEM TO HEAR THE GREATEST TRANSITION OF ALL TIME💀😂
Chase Holder 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Facts
The rest was history
Frank Ocean is simply his own genre. He bends multiple genres and sorta creates his own from them.
Hes R&b basically
@@robertloweiii8790 an indie/pop/ very Soulful Form of it Yes
Not that much
actually Pharrell is doing that intentionally exactly how you described it
Nostalgia Ultra = Indie Pop/R&B
Channel Orange = Neo-Soul/R&B
Blonde & Endless = Avant-Garde
Maybe the last term sounds pretentious to y’all, but i do believe those last projects are very different than your typical R&B sound. The combination of Indie Rock, Art Pop, Psychedelic music, etc... it is some futuristic stuff.
honestly you are so right. i didnt like blonded at first but the more i listened to it the more i loved it
These two guys are Metalheads and they break down and appreciate rap/r&b music more than rap/r&b reviewers/reaction channels. Great video
1.4 likes but no replies 😳
Prally cuz Metalheads and Rock fans have a greater appreciation for all facets of a song. Instruments, vocals, lyrics and how it all fits well together. As opposed, to r&b/rap fans that mostly focus on the artist than the music. Probably cuz they don't produce they're own music. On the other hand, producers of rap songs have great appreciation and analysis of songs.
@@monkeydben7360 I'm a progressive rock fan. I reckon people who listen to more lirically and musically "complex" songs are more appreciative of the quality of a good song. However, no one can deny that the vast majority of them are elitists who will call almost every song out of their gender of choice "not music, just noise" and they undervalue songs and artists as a whole because it's not what they like. They're for some reason proud of what they listen to and feel smart about it, as if they were the ones who wrote the music.
Even your comment shows a tad of that (though barely), now that I look at it closely.
Most "metal heads" listen to a lot more genres than they present. If you listen to one genre, you're losing.
@@newthrash1221 ong i dont understand how people can spend their whole life listening to a single type of music
One of the best frank songs ever. That beat switch actually marks exactly 30 minutes into his one hour album.
@@saadoodoo i have listened to this album atleast 20 times and never noticed that. Frank is so mf layered. There isn't enough hours in a day to completely understand even this album, let alone his discography.
MsPuredebatata Its like a minute off but yeah close enough
Best song of the decade.
I thought I was the only one who clocked that
Lil Discount it’s exactly halfway through. exactly. There’s like a minute of silence in Futura Free to make sure it is.
Blonde is one of those albums which is a body of art rather than a load of singles shoved into one release, which is what too much rap tends to be these days. Unfortunately that is what makes so hard for you guys to react to individual songs from it. My favourite album of all time!
Chilt Thruya I don’t know what trash rappers you are listening to but all the rappers I bump focus on their albums just as much ... from j Cole kendrick and jay z to JID mickjenkins and goldlink.. listen to more than migos and lil uzi before you talk
Amen. Blonde is truly something special.
@@Damascene749 I don't even listen to mumble rap
@@Damascene749 Get off your f*cking high horse. I listen to all the artist you mentioned and most of them always have 1 or 2 tracks that they know might be a hit and also stop acting like the Migos and Uzi are the same just because of a sound if you listen to Uzi's albums and you have a little knowledge about him you'd know that most his albums are thematic but he makes it subtle.
Chilt Thruya I've been listening to this album on and off for two years and I can see myself listening to it for maybe the rest of my life
It's the type of album where you gotta listen too it a couple of times and it grows on you
every albums can be good if you give them chances.
Daniel Napitupulu naahh not really
Yung Bob yeah
Yung Bob it’s Stockholm syndrome
@@AzazelHash281 isn't Stockholm syndrome when you start to sympathize with people holding you captive?
*Did* *you* *just* *seriously* *talk* *during* *the* *nights* *beat* *switch* *?*
IKRRR
A N G E R
That’s the only reason why I watched this, to see them react to that moment .Thank you for saving my time 💀
To be fair they don’t know the song lol
Saved me from being disappointed. Not even gonna watch that far lol
they gonna be listenin to this later on loop for hours cause thats what happened with me
My body damn near burst with excitement when I saw the notification
Its 2AM rn I just got home and I was boutta go to sleep but I saw this on my feed was like bruh I gotta hit this up asap
Same holy shit
My notifications broke. I seen this through a related video. Glad I still got to it!
This dude on the left looks so much like Johnny sins.
He even said , “I want to penetrate frank ocean” 😳
💀💀
Der Plastepolizist and the dude on the right look like Macklemore
Yet another profession in his cv :D
thought the same thing LMAO
I don't think I've ever heard "Frank Ocean" and "Soundcloud Rapper" in the same sentence. Don't do my boy Ocean like that D:
when was this said?
Meh in terms of vibes and atmosphere there's definitely a comparison to be made between Frank and a lot of those sad bois soundcloud rappers like Juice, though Frank is obviously a way better songwriter.
Bladelores no you didn’t go there
I think maturity really drives his lyrics
Alex Smith for sure... I'm a huge Metal lover and love all kinds of music, but there is definitely that maturity that sets frank apart... Even still listening to channel orange, I hear something different, and I've listened accumulatively since I was 17. He is great, and I love how these guys are so blown away lol puts a smile on my face.
Oh my god , finally my prayers have been answered !!!!!!! Thank you very much for reacting to frank ocean. Please react to more of his work.
Frank Ocean is an absolute master of the craft. However, I probably wouldn't have recommended this track as the first exposure one has to Frank. The eccentricity and cryptic nature of "Nights" would be more appreciated on first listen by a seasoned listener of his type of artistry. You guys should definitely react to more though... "Crack Rock" from 'Channel Orange' is a great starting point.
But I agree with you... Frank is someone that takes a while to get into. It took me over a year to really listen to his first album (Channel Orange)... and now Channel Orange is one of my favourite albums of all time.
I agree laurel
be my friend plz
yes man!!! could have said it better! i started listening to Frank from Blonde, and went back, channel orange took a bit to grow on me but “Crack Rock” is non stop in my head now.
that damn song is the best shit to ever hit my ears and i feel like i’m literally addicted to the song like a crack fiend
Nights was actually the first song by him that I really liked tbh. I went back and re-listened to his stuff and I'm slowly liking his music more and more. There are still some songs that I can't quite get into though
when he says "wanna see nirvana but don't wanna die" I get chills every time
ong
Frank Ocean was a part of Tyler the Creator’s group Odd Future for a while before he went solo & dropped his debut album Channel Orange, then dropped off the map for 4 years & came back with Blonde. Dude is one of the only people who makes music purely to make music he loves & not for any form of recognition. Turned down the opportunity to have Blonde nominated for Grammys
Also he is definitely a lyrics guy btw
Don't forget that he released Endless the same time with Blonde which goes under a lot of peoples radar. Very underrated imo. Also there is Nostalgia Ultra too
Luka Pitkänen nostalgia ultra wasn’t an album it was a mixtape, & he used Endless as a way to get out of his record deal so he could release Blonde on his own terms
@@TzaTed still Endless underrated imo
Luka Pitkänen I agree
BLONDE IS A CLASSIC ALBUM. MASTERPIECE.
Shawn Ramlochan niggas need to stop throwing the word classic around so aimlessly, give the album time to mature and let’s see how well it ages, it’s too early to call it a classic
Blonde is a fucking classic..
Meezus West it... is.
Meezus West naw Issa classic mate
Meezus West it’s basically the only album that i can listen everyday without getting bored nor tired.
Theres a lot of comments suggesting this but i gotta add to it so you guys know its what the people want:
Frank Ocean - Self Control
I pretty much cry every time i listen to that song. Its weird. I love it
Or Ivy
KEEEEEEEP A PLAAAAAACE FOR MEEEEEEEEEE 😭😭😭😭😭💖
When’s pink and white going to get some love?
this song is truly amazing
I've never clicked on a youtube notification so quick in my life. Frank Ocean is a living GOD!
“I'm just a guy I'm not a god Sometimes I feel like I'm a god but I'm not a god If I was I don't know which heaven would have me momma” frank ocean - futura free
You'll know his song 'thinking about you', it charted years ago and had a fair bit of UK radio play. Great artist, you should check out his track 'Chanel'
Probs 'Lost' too
Crack rock is my favourite
Chanel is crazy good yes plz
Chanel has to be one of my favorites
MY GUY PRETTY LIKE A GIRL
daaaamn... saying frank "isn't there lyrically" hurted me personally:/
viggo right?? like personally i think frank writes some of the most beautiful and creative lyrics compared to most artists nowadays
They weren't ready yet. But in all fairness, jd said "I think in 10 songs we'll get it." He knew that he didn't really know how to interpret Frank yet.
They said that similar artist like trippie redd and juice wrld weren't there lyrically, they praised frank for having complex lyrics that couldn't be unpacked on one listen
“hurted me”, clearly his fans aren’t lyrical either.
@@baileyenergy1839 ¿?
u 2 are so fun & open minded!
Hey 😏
“Wanna see Nirvana but don’t wanna die yet”
nirvana* not the band. lol
Jose Laygo oh 🤷🏾♂️ lol
Jose Laygo works both ways, that’s what’s so great about it
Gnar Gnar Binks it really does, but me knowing him, I never thought of it the other way. Lol
Everybody cried out for self control but this is close enough.
When I listened to this I thought it sounded weird, (exactly how you described it, out of beat) but it stuck and my head and I had to come back to listen again. Now I'm addicted to it.
lmao true, at first it sounded weird and i didn't like it but over time it becomes very pleasant and addicting
I’m the opposite when I listen to a song for the first time I really like it but when I listen to the song again I don’t like it as much. It’s kinda weird
Only two years late... One of the greatest albums of our generation. A unique talent, frank ocean.
Oh thank God, finally! This song is a masterpiece
The Doctor z🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼😌🤞🏼🐄🤞🏼🐄🤞🏼🔪😳
YES. TOLD YALL TO LISTEN TO THIS AND U DID SAME THING WITH EARL SWEATSHIRT CHUM. u guys r great
frio yes pleasee
Frank Ocean is driving music at night
thinking about her w tears in your eyes 😔
Sagi head up king 👑
frank ocean is really something else
Frank Ocean is an extremely personal artist who just does what he wants to do, leading to a lot of experimental moments like that in his career. He came up with Tyler the Creator and the rest Odd Future. He was originally just their resident crooner who would write songs for more famous pop stars (Like Beyoncé, John Legend, & Justin Beiber) but he began to rise to prominence once he dropped his first mixtape, "nostalgia, ULTRA." Jay Z & Kanye heard about the tape through Beyoncé & they put him on two separate songs off Watch the Throne (Their collaborative album), one of those songs being the massive "No Church in the Wild."
I love Frank & his music. He's possibly one of my favorite musician because of his honesty & vulnerability. He started to become more prominent while I was in high school & he made me see the world a hell of a lot differently. His music helped me get over a issue I had with homophobia. He had released an open letter revealing his bisexuality & I had already went a full year listening to his music, being moved by what he had to say. I found it ridiculous to ostracize someone for who they wanted to love, especially when his music helped me through heartache because of the people I chose to love. He even lead me to the strength to realize the truth about my own sexuality, which is incredibly nerve-wracking already & even worse when you're a black man leaving in a community that doesn't really approve, so his music will always hold a special place in my heart. "Self Control," a song off "Blond" (his second album) would be a pretty nice next step for you guys. It's one of my favorites. Either that or "Seigfried" which is also on Blond as well.
Love the videos by the way. Keep 'em up. I always enjoy watching people journey deeper down the rabbit hole that is music.
DeezyDru this
You guys are killing it with the good song requests 👍
Crazy to think I used to hate him with a passion, without even listening to all his music, for some reason I really hated the song “thinking about you,” which was the first song I ever heard of him. Forward 4 years later in college I deeply connected with his song Nights and I gave all his music a try. Only thing I could say now is that I was a fool.
That happened to me, but kinda different, my brother hates these songs cause it's "black people music" and I a was fool cause I used to to think the same thing, then after I discovered kendrick lamar, I loved the genre, later with Tyler the creator I absolutely fell in love with the genre, later I found that Where this flower blooms (a song of tyler the creator) and it was a featured with Frank Ocean then I proceed to listen some Frank Ocean albums, the last one, and ngl, best shit I ever heard man, I fucking regret thinking like that.
@@doomslayer8985 bruh is your brother racist?
@@lara4132 the whole family is I’m guessing
so glad I found this channel, brb about to go see every one of your videos AND DO MORE FRANK OCEAN
FRANK OCEAN STANS ASSEMBLE!

We in this bitch
The cult is alive
William at ur service
✊🏽
If you listen to more of Frank projects then you'll potentially get more of an appreciation of it, I think Jon is more likely to like Frank Ocean long term if he listened to his stuff than Simon though.
EDIT: I said this before watching the whole thing but it seems you guys already feel he's the kind of artist you need to listen to more of lol.
Throughout the “penetrate conversation” the album art looks like Frank Is doing the face in palm emoji
Yeah this isn't the song to introduce you to Frank Ocean
My favorite song tho
CuddyTG
This was the song that got me into Frank, but I agree with you.
It really is but ok
What frank ocean song would be great to introduce to my friends
LOL simple song like chanel or thinkin bout you just not one that has that high pitched autotune because people can get turned off by that
some pop shit like slide, then to thinkin bout u, then to super rich kids, then to pyramids, then just when u think channel orange is undefeated u listen to nights and nikes and pink and white. then u listen to self control, then u listen to blonde as a whole. thats how i did it
I love y'all for this....please listen to Ivy as well.
Kam Perez yes, ivy is beautiful
yes
Ivy is a gorgeous song
Best song on Blonde.
Frank Ocean is/was part of hip hop collective Odd Future ( OFWGKTA ) created by Tyler, The Creator. another member is /was Earl Sweatshirt who you guys should react to ( I know you guys have reacted to him before )
2:20 ‘got to imagine some transition is coming or a change’... lol
Blond is one of those albums where you have to listen to it all at once. Do yourselves a favor and just dive right into the album.
The blonde album plays out almost like a journal, each song feels like it has a greater purpose when you listen to the album as a whole
Ivy- Frank Ocean
Mural- Lupe Fiasco
A life in the day of Benjamin Andre- Outkast
Come back Baby- Pusha T

He is one of the most mysterious artist, it’s like he’s living off the grid. He never does any interviews.
He’s like if Daniel day Lewis was a musician
Awesome Reaction! Haha So many good frank ocean songs.
Super rich kids
Solo
Biking
Chanel
Moon river
Ivy
Swim good
Pyramids
Lost
So so so many, that’s barely scratching the surface :)
SUPER RICH KIDS IS THE BEST!!!!
Futura Free
Nikes too
And sweet life
I do like these but because there's so much music to get through maybe try videos where you go through top singles of each artists?
Blonde was one of those albums that took me a while to listen to the entire album and get it. It's not a first time listen I love it album but by the third or forth you'll love it.
Frank Ocean - Solo , Nikes , Seigfried, Godspeed (Blonde Album)
Frank Ocean - Biking ft. Jay Z and Tyler the Creator
Evan Crayton Thomas this was the same as me. When it first came out I didn’t even listen to it even though I loved a lot of tracks off channel orange but then I started to listen to the songs more and I love them and Ivy is probably in my top 10 songs of all time
bri same for me and now blonde is my favorite album ever lmao
yeah, it takes a while to get used to his style. definitely one of those albums worth giving a few listens before a final decision!
Super rich Kids by frank ocean is great 👍
He also says that his main purpose with his music is to paint a picture and deliver emotions!
And honestly you guys are both pretty bright when it comes to reacting to music but when it comes to nights it really takes listening to it a couple of times to truly grasp it more
You guys described it pretty much the same way I was impacted by Frank Oceans music. There is plenty of depth to his music so much so that there is a good podcast called dissect that breaks down the whole album. Anyways I really enjoyed this reaction because it reminded me of how I felt when I first listened to him. Cheers
Luis Gallegos I’ve been listening to dissect! It’s almost over now :/
You should react to Frank Ocean - Bad Religion
Nati my favorite
Nati the best
Nights is definitely a track that you appreciate more after you’ve dug deep into Frank’s music and vision.
Blonde, along with Endless needs multiple listens in different moods you discover different layers and emotions from what Frank has created. Great video guys, will definitely be watching more.
Yo, it’s 2024, and never in 1 million years wouldI have imagined that my favorite British prowrestling RUclipsr and my favorite British music reviewer once had a show together
Gotta do Super Rich Kids and Pink Matter
Jonathan Patton FUCK YES LMAOOOOO
Pink matter is my shit
That André verse!
Tour De Force yessssss he killed that verse
I think blonde took a couple listens to click for most people tbh
Only listened to it once cause my friends were hyping it up. But I couldn't get into it at all. Maybe I''ll give it a few more listens one of these days.
Isaiah Campbell Listen to it a few more times. It took me 4-5 listens to start loving the album. My friend used to not enjoy the album and he kept listening to it and it finally hit and he loves it now!
Isaiah Campbell I’m a big fan of Frank but my first listen was just overwhelming so I didn’t really get a chance to calm myself and take it all in. It definitely takes a few listens to get into it.
He took such a long ass time to come with this album i thought he didn't really care about it, lol.
i hated it at first listen, but boy was I wrong.....
What i love about frank so much is how seriously he treats his art/music, he doesn't do it to please anybody but to make music from his soul and he's incredibly talented at it
as an extremely dedicated frank fan this was one of the best reactions ive ever watched, you guys have a great mindset and i appreciate your passion for music
React to Frank Ocean - Pyramids
One of my fav songs by him ty guys you're killing it with these daily uploads
So weird but as soon as Gain$ said that thing about a movie, with rain pouring down, my brain also went to Ryan Gosling.
Everyone coming just to see the reaction to that beat change lol
I guess you guys may potentially find it easier to delve into Chanel Orange. Then maybe push into Blond
OkChig blonde*
@@wavypthe1 it's both.
He got two versions!!!
Nostalgia Ultra, specifically love crimes and even novacane will ease them in smoother
They have to know coldplay. They should listen to his cover of strawberry swing.
Never clicked so fast
Holy shit finally!!!! This is also my favorite song from Frank Ocean.
GIVE MY BABY FRANK RECOGNITION!!!😭❤️❤️
that’s exactly what i love about frank and his music. no matter what song, i can always imagine a place or atmosphere or scene when listening to it. a truly talented artist can paint vivid pictures with their music.
Frank ocean also used to ghost write for Beyoncé, Kanye, John Legend & Justin Bieber. Super talented dude
Frank never ghost wrote for Kanye
He wrote several hooks on Watch The Throne
He was given credit so it doesn’t count as ghost writing
I'd say watch the throne was one of his breaking points
@@jamesslocombe2064 Not ghost writing
I fell in love with this song driving home alone after a long day at work, just enjoying the ride
My first time stumbling on your channel had to subscribe because I love Frank Ocean and its always nice seeing a different perspective on things!
Earl Sweatshirt ( Burgundy, Hive, Whoa, Hoarse, Faucet, Grief, Solace )

This and theneedledrop are my only two channels with the bell notification on. You guys are so good at providing genuine reactions, but also explaining exactly how you feel in such articulate ways. This channel is just the absolute best reaction channel. As for Frank Ocean, the man is just one of the all time greats and Blonde is a damn near perfect record, glad you guys enjoyed! Next up I would recommend Self Control or White Ferrari, maybe even Pink Matter with André 3000. Great video guys!
Edit: forgot to mention U-N-I-T-Y off of his visual album Endless, which is also fantastic.
The start of John's amazing relationship with Frank Ocean which continued on the solo channel - lovely to see :-) I can never get enough of this track
frank ocean pyramids, it will blow your mind!!! keep up the great work!!
A Johnny Sins frank ocean collab would be perfect
lmaooo
2 days after this album turned 2 years old and became an instant classic. This is fitting
I use Simon's beard to gauge when the video was recorded. 500 IQ, people.
I use Jons beard. 1,000,000 IQ
I listen to this song so many times all day. This music is music that may change fate in my life.(저는 이 노래를 하루 종일 너무 많이 들어요. 이 음악은 내 인생의 운명을 바꿀 수 있는 음악이다.)
Kendrick lamar - the blacker the berry
The weeknd - the hills/often
Lil uzi vert - baby are you home

Frank Ocean was in Odd Future with Tyler, Earl and a bunch of others. I don't expect y'all to react to it but a reaction to Oldie would be really cool.
I remember listening to nights for the first time in the background, not really paying attention. A few days later the second part of the song kept playing in my head, and I was like “I have to listen to this song more!” It became my most played song in Spotify 2018 and 2019...XD
3:33 “yea! yea yeayeayeyayeayyeaaaa” 😂😂
Trust me guys, you did the right one here. One of the most beautiful songs to ever be created in my opinion. I love watching you guys grow with each review and also widening your musical tastes and perspective. Great to see.
Also Frank Ocean has been around way longer than the people you compared him too so if anything they were influenced by him. Give it a few more listens alone, when you want to be relaxed and at peace. Guarantee you will absolutely love it when you have more familiarity
Btw that penetration bit was fucking hilarious.
Biking- frank ocean, Jay Z, Tyler the creator
honestly I relate because I didn't love frank at first but after listening to his albums chronologically after a few times, he's my all time favorite!!
The emotion in your face is a whole mood
Lupe Fiasco ( Hurt Me Soul, The Cool, Put You On Game, Mural, Prisoner 1 & 2 )
Clicked on this way too fast
George Fielder so fast lol
LMAO SAME
It’s great experiencing your genuine reactions, as well as hearing your thoughtful analyzation...it’s incredibly difficult to converse/analyze music in short episodes WHILE keeping your audience entertained, but y’all do a perfect job at that...this is some quality content on RUclips
I don’t listen to metal but I like how you guys are open to listen to order genres.
Frank Ocean's Blonde is propably my favorite album (or one of them) and I agree this song might sound better with the context of the album. I think you should do songs like "Biking" and "Chanel". They are two great standout songs that were released after the album came out (I have suggested both tracks here before). Keep digging!
can't wait for more Frank Ocean videos. Blonde is absolutely beautiful beginning to end and honestly one of the most dense albums this decade by far. there is infinite details/references/contributions from other amazing artists to unpack in every single track. his other projects are amazing as well but Blonde is basically perfect.
Do more frank ocean guys, loved this video. His music is great for reactions, his music will leave you with alot to talk about.
This is one of the most amazing songs on one of the most amazing albums in recent memory
This album and his first are considered classics.
You guys gotta react to Solo, Nikes and Biking (solo) by Frank Ocean too!!!!
Oldie by Odd Future (Tyler, The Creator & Frank Ocean)
Great video guys, Frank has been making music for a long time he has a lot more for you guys to listen to
