I really respect Frank for being open with his sexuality on this album. Back then he actually got a lot of hate for it. People would discredit him and slander him bc of it. Probably bc R&B/Hip-hop at the time had little to no LGBTQ representation. But he stayed true to himself and I admire him a lot for that.
The point of Not Just Money was about money being everything pretty much. He wants to do something that requires money, but the mom is basically saying like you don't even know how precious and useful money really is
I love this album but I just realized in all this time I'd never looked up the lyrics, and I definitely had been missing some things! Appreciate your thoughts and commentary, so glad you reacted to this one
DIJON!!! He’s amazing! I love How do you feel about getting married. Sci-Fi is fantastic. His entire catalog from front to back is top tier. He needs more love 100%
So fun fact, Start samples the PlayStation 1 startup and when you see it, it shows the old Sony logo which is notably, bright orange, I’m sure he included that not only to represent a part of his childhood but also to represent the orange of the album title
@@lusciousluie ahhh gotcha, and no problem I was gonna see if you caught on before I commented so just wanted to give you some information about that track :) great reaction btw I always love yours
Cool review!! If you like Franks music, you should definitely check out an album by a new artist called "Xander Moon". I came across this record called Hallucination I and it's really cool. I don't promote this, I just think you might enjoy the project:) It's a mixture of indie pop, alternative pop/rap and soul. I personally love it!
Alright. First things first, this album was when Frank first came out to the world as Bi. There was a passage that came with the album when it was released. #2 Pyramids is a song exhibiting how the Black Woman went from a strong queen in her homeland to now only be seen as degraded and a stripper in this song #3 Bad Religion- can be seen as just an ordinary unrequited love but I see it as because he's Bi god will never love him. The cyanide in a styrofoam cup is referencing cults that drink that to meet "god" #4 Forrest Gump- this song is from the perspective of Jenny. But maybe he also relates lol.
He’s headlining Coachella so HOPEFULLY he might have something new to preform…even tho it’s not 100% likely he’ll even show up🤦🏾♂️
IF he shows up lol, that would be show of the year absolutely.
Just don't expect anything. That will only let you down even more.
@@johanrr4 that’s what niggas kept saying about Kendrick last year and we ended up eating so ima stay optimistic

@@dillyt6948 it’s not funny yet bro💀
Pyramids always sounds so futuristic to me cuz I never heard a song like that 😭 Frank is so ahead of his time
Pyramids is one of my favorite songs of all time now. It trips me up.

Definitely one of my favorites from Frank Ocean now! I love that song so much
Honestly a really good reactor/reviewer. So many reactors say a lot of nothing, but your reactions and commentary are always solid
The chorus in super rich kids was Frank Ocean himself. Earl Sweatshirt was just that one verse
Thanks for telling me this. Frank's spoken word trips me up because it's so different than his singing voice. Earl's verse is amazing too.

Great reaction as always bro! Your commentary is top tier !!
I appreciate that! This one had to get a full breakdown it's that good!
Forrest Gump always gives me chills. The nostalgic reminiscence of young love is so potent

Yup!!! Dijon is amazinggg
Dijon was such a surprise for me. I really enjoyed his music.
God this album takes me back. Very much my 2012 playlist. Thank you for the time capsule buddy!
It's now my 2022 Playlist man!
Awesome reaction to a timeless album, keep it up with the great videos!
Very timeless! I appreciate it.
Now we need Endless! and btw there is a CD exclusive track called Golden Girl featuring Tyler. its the ultimate summer song
Going to look into Endless for the channel in the future, but Tyler will be on the channel soon!
@@lusciousluieyes bro and if you can, be sure to look into the story about why that album exists and was put out
Bro thank you so much, those albums you are reacting to speak to my soul.
These ones are speaking to mine too!
Since you higlighted it: Crack Rock's drum is a sample from a drum fill by Mitch Mitchells on a Jimmy Hendrix album!
So fun fact, Start samples the PlayStation 1 startup and when you see it, it shows the old Sony logo which is notably, bright orange, I’m sure he included that not only to represent a part of his childhood but also to represent the orange of the album title
I never owned a PS1 when I was younger so I'm happy that you said this!
@@lusciousluie ahhh gotcha, and no problem I was gonna see if you caught on before I commented so just wanted to give you some information about that track :) great reaction btw I always love yours
Blond is bare and minimal, whereas channel ORANGE is maximalist and grand.
happy to see your channel grow :)
Thank you! I appreciate the support!
52:09 *that was* _grey matter_
hahaha, it indeed was Andre's grey matter
Andre's features on Frank's albums are top tier
D’Angelo’s Voodoo next?
Let’s do house of balloons as well 🔥!!! And also pls don’t forget nostalgia ultra in the future
Really liked your Reaction! I am going to recommend to you to look into Kanye's discography next, one of the greatest!
I will be checking out Kanye's discography in the future!
Ur drum covers are fire

Already on 2k subs. Congrats Luie
Thank you! It's crazy to think we'd ever get here.
I recommend reacting to Elliott Smith's "Either/Or". I think you will enjoy his work

I never owned a PlayStation 1 when I was younger so I totally didn't catch it!
LETSS GOOO
YESSS
Have you heard Random Access Memories by Daft Punk?
I have heard a few songs! Touch is my favorite songs from the band hands down.
Nobody ever understands Pyramids off first listen 🤣 I like your thought process though
looking at what it actually means I think I got pretty close lol
Can you just drop the tpab reaction please
You know what... since you asked. How about later this month? I think it's time.
I realised it is a really turn off to watch a reaction with these 3 secs and jump, couldn't finish.
Must have a better way to avoid copyright strike.
