#ENDLESS FRANK OCEAN FULL ALBUM FULL#

The hypnotic and jazzy backdrop of guitar also has him tying together Apple Jacks, Houston hip-hop outfit the Geto Boys, Silicon Valley business ventures, and gun violence in Chiraq. вЂњU-N-I-T-YвЂќ has Ocean flexing his rap skills, alluding to a changing of the guard by name-dropping longtime tennis great Roger Federer and current number one seed Novak Djokovic. It gets mind-bendingly beautiful once Sampha slathers himself above the keys, but quickly dissipates into вЂњMine,вЂќ a seconds-long micro movement of layered vocals contemplating the following sad-sack drug quandry: вЂњHow come the ecstasy always depresses me so?вЂќ Quick and to the point, the piano-driven piece finds a gang of overlapping OceanвЂ™s running lines about family life in an overcrowded duplex. The aforementioned вЂњAlabamaвЂќ is the first proper taste of OceanвЂ™s original music. The song is stark and stunning, and has RadioheadвЂ™s Jonny Greenwood providing a washed out-and-distant string arrangement to the minimalist piece. The quickie intro then leads into a cover of the Isley BrothersвЂ™ вЂњAt Your Best (You Are Love),вЂќ which would be a confounding, were OceanвЂ™s blown-glass fragile falsetto not so enveloping. Instead, itвЂ™s that of electronic artist/photographer Wolfgang Tillmans, whose computer-altered voice gives вЂњDevice ControlвЂќ a most meta-analysis about holding an Apple appliance. For the time being, weвЂ™ve got Endless, a collection whichвЂ™s title matches the stream-of-consciousness song sequencing.ДЇittingly enough, considering all the false-starts and teases over the last year, Endless doesnвЂ™t begin with OceanвЂ™s voice. The other album is rumoured to arrive this weekend, possibly under a different title.

To be clear, though, while fans had been waiting for a new record since last summer, this isnвЂ™t the long-promised Boys DonвЂ™t Cry. As of today, teary Twitter pleadings, text alert services and smarmy memes about the delay can be put to rest. If youвЂ™ve been following the long, arguably overdrawn build up to this release, OceanвЂ™s first since 2012вЂ™s channel ORANGE, the guest vocalistвЂ™s longing may well seem like a stand-in for the thoughts of many who have been so desperate to hear new music from Ocean. WeвЂ™ll also hear from English electro-soul crooner James BlakeВ and Alex G., the 23-year-old guitarist of Bandcamp fame.вЂњWhat can I do to know you better?вЂќ ItвЂ™s a question posed not just by Frank Ocean on вЂњAlabama,вЂќ one of the songs featured on his brand new вЂњvisual albumвЂќ Endless, but by UK singer Sampha.
