    He said he was about 10 songs into his new album literally 2 years ago lol (http://pitchfork.com/news/49643-fra...album-working-with-pharrell-and-danger-mouse/). I did hear that new aaliyah tribute song he released a few days ago but i didn't love it. showed off what his voice can do though. Other than that... anyone got any news on him? I loved Channel Orange and want another album from him.

    He used his coming out as a low to promote his album, but people saw through that and don't care anymore.

    I disagree with that. I think he wanted to do that because it felt right to him and at the most figured it promoting his album would be an added bonus. He deleted his twitter and instagram and doesn't do any media. i think he's happy being off the radar.

    He's just a perfectionist that takes forever. That's all.

    So is there really nobody interested in a new album from him? I understand not being hyped because he's been laying very low. It's not a coincidence nobody is talking about him. He even fired the manager who helped him get channel orange to become such a mainstream success. We used to have quite a large group of people who followed Frank Ocean on SL. What happened?

    Here's a snippet that came out 2 months ago btw. Sounds really interesting.
