Frank Ocean Dropped...New Merch, That Is
No new music here, Oceanographers (well, at least not yet). But, your fave has dropped off some new Blonded Merch. It's better than nothing, right? Yes? No?
Some graphic hoodies, sweatpants, and tees landed on Blonded's website recently, some featuring the traditional Blonded Radio graphic while others presented a trippy LSD concept.
The Acid Tab design, as Blonded calls it, also materializes on a $15 mousepad, supplying psychedelic vibes for your Google journey.
Ranging from $65 to $150, Frank Ocean's latest drop is currently up for grabs on Blonded's website. But I'd act fast, Ocean fans, as the short-sleeve Blonded Radio tee has already come and gone.
Blonded's January release undoubtedly had the Ocean army hopeful, as a poster from the drop suggested he may not be retiring — which, by the way, was a baseless rumor that sent fans spiraling last year.
A lengthy message on the back of the poster revealed that Frank Ocean is "again interested in more durational bodies of work" rather than just dropping singles.
It's been six years since Blonded and three years since his last single, "Cayendo" and "Dear April." Despite the music drought, Frank Ocean isn't just sitting around, that's for sure.
If you're a NYC resident, you're likely to catch him biking through the city, possibly between meetings about Homer's diamond-encrusted cock rings and his reported directorial debut.
The good music news is that Frank Ocean is scheduled to headline Coachella in April (Blonded merch is right on time). And while we can't help but dream of him performing a new song in the dustbowl valley, let's also not get our hopes up.
Take it from Rihanna, who proved that headlining a monumental event viewed by millions doesn't equate to new music (at least, we got a "special guest").
