![]() ![]() Just five years in, we tend to forget that Frank Ocean stunned the music world with Blonde. Neither did we plan for Frank to have Kanye West on songwriting credits, Beyoncé on backing vocals, or ask the up-and-coming indie kid then known as (Sandy) Alex G to play guitars. ![]() ![]() It’s too easy to overlook that when Blonde surfaced, we didn’t expect Frank to bring up lyrics from the Beatles. Upon release, in 2016, we had the faintest idea if we should spell it Blond - as the hypnotic artwork suggests - or, well, Blonde. That’s why, after these five eventful years, it’s unsurprising to realize that, even though we take Blonde and Frank Ocean for granted, we barely even remember it’s his third (and not second) album.
