July 6, 2012 @ 4:31 PM EDT
News
The most talked about man in music surfaces this afternoon with a sweet tune off his forthcoming debut. Some things are hard to deny and good music is one of them. This one was co-produced by Pharrell. Channel Orange, July 17th.
So damn good.
So is this a bout man a woman or both?
Dope. Different, but dope.
song is boring btw, i dont listen to the lyrics because i dont care about what he’s saying, boring song is boring
my nigga why did you comment 3 times in a row? wow
LMAO at this is called “The Sweet Life”
Good for you Good Motherfuckin Music. Looks like someone got on their big boy pants today and mustered up the courage to post 3 irrelevant comments on a song they don’t like hoping people would join in on bashing another human being, good job.
Is this one of the Pharrell records?
There’s hope for RnB.
Nice song.
Gay boy life! SMFH!
keep it.

Nice
This niggas having a problem with him like Men & Women are the main ones not sure if they like Men or Women. Its obvious that this song is about a woman. He’s actually dating a woman now, unless theyve broken up recently. but it is funny that this song is titled “Sweet Life” after he just release that letter. lol. still a dope song.
why not stop talkin’ about his sexuality ? why even care ?!
Hahahaha, all the homes are clicking to hear sweet talk to their ears.
SMH i don’t care how dope he’s suppose to be.
R&B is about love songs and there’ll always be homo undertone or direct reference to his abomination lifestyle. Looool.
NO thanks. Didn’t click at all.
SHAME ON ME for being so narrow minded, but now when I hear this dude all I can see is him singing to dudes and gobblin dicks.
But its a nice track.
Dude like boys…so he sings to them..lol..thats hilarious lmao…no matter how you try to spin it..dude likes to play with boys.
batti bwoy…the g in ofwgkta stands for gay, because there a dyke in the group too…
If im a faggot spell it right, cause I got way more then two G’s!!!
fuck a gay nigga!!
FAGGGGG SWAGGGGGG
how ironic…great track tho.
Faggot Swagg my nigga FRANK OCEAN
if you hear Frank Ocean and imagine two guys together, that says more about you than it does about Frank. Doesn’t take much to get your fantasies going I guess.
When are Drake and Lil Wayne gonna come out the closet?
Just look at the ignorant comments on here. Let that man live his life.
Frank ocean got talent forget what you heard and check this OUT http://www.audiomack.com/song/petatosh/so-sophisticated Petatosh “So sophisticated”
FAGGGGG
Awesome jam. Pharrell definitely left his fingerprint on this one.
dope song, haven’t heard a frank ocean song i didn’t like. Ignore the trolls.
my booty is mine
Fag Swag now that some funny shit!!
Dude is a Don!
Everyone who takes the time to post a negative comment in reference to Frank’s sexuality (or any other man’s) is simply not secure in their own.
almost,,,, stevie wonderish,,,,,,he’s not a great singer,,,,lyrics are fruity,,,,track has soul though,,,,,tryin to be unique,,,,usually when a man likes a song another man sings about a woman, its because he cant sing it,,,,to that woman, so he plays it in his crib or his car for her, to describe how he might feel for her,,,,Im a prince fan and that nigga music has gotten me pussy several times,,,,,will this nigga get a nigga some pussy through his music?,,,hmmmmm!!hahahaha,,i dont know,,,,he got to wear that jacket now,,,,he could of keep that shit to himself,,,,,niggas definitely gonna be studying his music,,,,because niggas dont wanna be caught up singing,,,, a gay lyric,,,,,niggas is crazy!!
sweet life with your boyfriend faggggggg
SWEET LIFE? HOW IRONIC….
all you homophobes were touched as children. fuck you care for? hes not trying to fuck you, YOU GUYS ARE THE FAGGOTS
This Shit Is Amazing. He’s Bi-sexual & Gets more Bitches Than All of you niggas talking about “He’s a faggot”. Now thats some Sweet shit.
Dope! nice vibe with this one.
damn lots of homophobes on here
I find it disgusting that some of you, refuse to listen to Frankie because hes a “Faggot.”
What kind of world do we live in…It’s 2012, get educated. This track is dope. His sexual
preference is 100 percent irrelevant. Keep making good music Frank, we’re supporting ya.
Fag fag fag!!!! All you guys are fags too for accepting this fag. Fuck him and his fag self. Weeknd>>>>> when is gay z and kanye coming out. The threesome buddies. No fags in the wild. Fag swag!!! That’s why nas stopped working with this fag.
if his sexuality is irrelevant ,,,why did he feel the need to so call come out of the closet,,,,then drop some singles on the net,,,,,niggas is exploiting this gay shit,,to get sales,,,,that shit is corny,,,,,,somebody should of told him that,,,,,let your music do the talking,,,,and close your bedroom door!!!!,,,,,,,,,DA FUCK!!!!!!
yall are embarrassing.
i can’t believe how homophobic the hip-hop community is.
half of yall clicked on this just to talk shit. fuck you.
song is dope. frank is dope.
Song is dope reminded me of music soul child
same people dissing Frank probably say pause all day dyck on the brain azz Ngas smh.
Are you guys going to be bumping the song when he talks about him being a fag? If you guys do then your a true fan if you skip it then your a hypocrite. I dont accept gay people and those are my choices nobody is going to change that. If you accept the fact and think its that two guys are fucking eachother and sucking each others dick then you are a better person than me because that is just unacceptable.
Perhaps like the rest of you we don’t think about guys gobbling dicks when listening to music. Funny that these arguments come up about this particular situation but you don’t see people complaining about the blatant misogyny in rap music. We all have mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, friends, cousins whathaveyou but nah fuck those bitches thats not what matters right now right. Yall just wanna tear the dude down because every time he opens his mouth you can’t help but see an avalanche of dicks hahahaha yall fuckin slay me
Sensitive thugs, y’all all need hugs.
fukkkk boyyyyyyyy
Gay.
Lol at this black slave fag! He should be shot for being a fag and a nigga black!!! Kill all blacks! Kill all fags! Kill all that are different from us normal white people!
^^^da fuck^^^,,,,he the nigga that painted the picture,,,,by him speaking on his sexuality,,,if he wouldn’t of said shit we wouldn’t have thought shit,,,be who you are why you gotta flag your gayness,,,just before your music comes out,,,he is asking to be scrutinized,,,,,,,da fuck!!!!!
Keep your ignorant comments to your self. The only thing you’re showing by bashing a truly great person is how simple minded you are. This song is great. He switches from RnB to techno to reggae to bluegrass with ease. He is the definition of an incredible artist. His decision to live free will outlive any backlash from judgmental fools. Can’t wait to see what the rest of Channel orange has to offer!
Wow this song is GREAT
Frank Ocean is inspiration… what a beautiful song.
This song ahhhh so good
4 Words – Frank Ocean is Gay.!.
Ironic Title. Dope track.
It was bad hearing it sing about black slave girls. It’s even worst to hear it sing about black slave faggot niggas!
It doesn’t belong in this word because it is black and a fag!
Frank Ocean is gay and a black slave! Get rid of them all!
They are not normal like us normal people!
LMFAO @comments i´m dying and yeah he´s gay
Frank Ocean likes his sea parted the red sea after blown out ass cheeks!
I guess the Mayans really about to open the gate
because everything is out now .
Award for best MUSIQ impression goes to FO(Fag open) or OF(open fags ..
i’l stick to my Usher * pause* lol!
LOL @ the comment, only seeing him sing about gobbing dicks, Why can’t people just be straight lol.
I CANR FIND MYSLEF TO LISTEN TO THIS “NOVACAIN MY BOOTY SO IT DUZNT HURT” ASS ARTIST. IM SORRY. IM SORRY FRANKIE. LORD SEAR AND RUDE JUDE WERE GOING IN ON HIM TODAY ON SHADE 45!! I WISH SUMONE CUD POST THAT, SHYT WAS HILARIOUS!!!
Dope
Got nothing against gay people but its hard for me to listen to dude cuz I keep thinking he’s talking about another nigga lol
Reblogged this on CityLoveCouture and commented:
Love this song!
The ignorance, that’s why niggers always lose. When it is about the music niggers is still thinking about gays and dicks. Makes me think the ones running to post random comments about “Gay!” and “Frank Ocean likes his sea parted the red sea after blown out ass cheeks!” are in the closet. Because it’s on their brain. Are those supposed to be funny cause they aren’t. Listen to the music, when it is not something you care you can easily pass over it rather than rush to post shit that is always on your minds.
LOL niggas going harddddd hahaha
I never fucked with Frank’s music…so im here just to read the comment lmao
Reminds me of some ole 70’s smooth Stevie joint ……DOPE !
If you can’t get over Frank’s sexuality you might not have come to terms with your own or you’re a close minded bigot.
dope
hey this is pretty good! i can fvck a bitch to this.. word
Honestly, Hip Hop Fans, it’s 2012! Why are we still homophobic? I can’t believe people are now jumping in and dissing Frank Ocean and calling him a “Faggot” when a week ago the same people would be like, “This is a dope song.”
I’m ashamed to be part of hip hop culture right now. It’s fucking embarrassing.
Now everything this nigga do gone be overly gay smh. “Frank Ocean to release his new LP ‘Starships and Flagpoles’ Independence day 2013 SMH
Fag!!!
@haha preach brotha!
Get educated? Why can’t someone be educated and still shun your fag culture??? Gays are unnatural stop pushing your agendas…
This is why Hip Hop probably sucks MORE dick than Frank Ocean, cause it is so fucking ignorant and held back from the REST of the world. BTW, no one said ANYTHING about Frank Ocean fucking, sucking or KISSING a dude, ALL the nigga admitted was that he fell in LOVE with a man. All these commenters are mad suspect I swear thinking this song is about a man *pause*.
Frank Ocean is KILLING the game right now, Jay, Kanye, & Beyonce ALL gave the nigga the pass, who the FUCK are you to tell him he can’t be in the game?
Fuck Hip Hop, I swear this genre is FULL of more closet homosexuals then the rest of the world. I Guarantee you YOUR favorite is gay as fuck.
great track. fuck all the haters. i know i’ll be supporting great music by buying channel orange.
@This is why Hip Hip sucks
EGG ZACK LEE. The man never said, he fucked the dude or took it in the ass. The nigga said he fell in love with a man & the nigga was like “nah, Im straight nigga” & kept it moving. Frank actually dates a girl right now or was 2 months ago. So niggas gotta understand, that yall liked his music before & yall wasnt caring about who he was fucking. So why now are yall all “HES A FAGGOT”, hell most people think that most entertainers are Gay any way.
White boys underwater, “going down” hahahahahah
Musiq Soulchild wants his style back!!! lol
damn… this is dope! the homie is a beast… well be checkin out his 1st album
Y’all are fucking retarded if his sexuality has anything to do with you liking his music.
What ever happened to dont ask dont tell? I never cared about his sexuality but dont expect nobody to like it. Real shit he just gonna have to accept the territory he in now. Everybody has an opinion and it will get voiced. i cant listen to his songs and like them now because of him coming out the closet but thats me. no problem with what he does privately but i dont have to listen to his music.
1.
I was a huge fan of Frank oceans and supported n back the guy in past posts when ppl would ridicule him for tryna b The Dream or for being from OFWG n sum saying that he aint as nice as The Weeknd … n in those past post none of these niggas saying “OH THERES NOTHING RONG WITH HIM BEING GAY” and “IT DOESNT MATTER HE STILL MAKES GUD MUSIC” and “HIS SEXUALITY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT” … lol all these so called educated, politically correct ppl who “support” his music werent there in his previous posts supporting the dude yol all of a sudden have appeared from no where lol … i as a former fan have neva seen so much comments on a Frank Ocean post b4 the one bout his letter lol… sum1 was a rediculous as hell saying because Jay-Z n Kanye n Beyonce gave him a pass the rest of the world shud
2.
I cant understand for the life of me what the year we in has anything 2do with anything, niggas is shouting its 2012 so … yo views and believes shudnt change as the years go by if u a man/women who stans by their word … that argument that its 2012 is absolutely ridiculous.
3.
I myself personally love a song/music i can relate to, which is what made me a big fan of Frank Oceans … a guy my age i cud relate to n say <> wen he sings “”I fell in love with you girl, you let yoself inside, with no respect for privacy””. coz that reminds me of my girl.
N now that hes come out bout being gay i now simple dont relate to him simple as that coz i dont relate to the guy lifestyle and dont wana sing along to a song written for guys simple as that.
4.
Franks music has always been good, is good, n will always be good going forward n theres nothing any of yol can do about it … but it doesnt make me gay, or homophobic, or out of tuch or whatever … I simply dont relate to the guys music anymore now that sum of his songs r about guys, coz even thow i dont have a problem with that lifestyle, i dont live it or encourage it .
5.
Yol saying his sexuality has nothing 2do with his music r kidding yoselfs … it has EVERYTHING to do with his music, his music is about his lifes experiences not sum made up shit like Rick Ross
Very simple
@ Siya
WELL F*CKIN SAID BRUH AGREE WITH U 110 %
ppl r mor worryd bout being politically correct than being real n true to themselves.
Sum would even go as far as letting homos n satanism n other weird shit pass coz they fav’rite rappers n singers let it pass lol.
And not all visions u visualize are visions u like, and when i now listen to this dudes music i visualize him n the arms of another man and its a vision i dont like that doesnt sit well for me … doesnt mean i visualized him in the arms of another man n then liked it now im gay for visualizing that, thats a f&ckin dumb excuse … i tryd 2
listenin 2 the song but just cudnt..
I can’t believe some of theses comments, its 2012 and people are still this close-minded.SMH…at all the negative comments. Talent is talent and nobody can deny that as much ass you might want to. This man makes great music. PERIOD
dopest shit ive heard since musiq soulchild…glenn lewis….jill scott….amel larrieux
SMH SOMEONE NEEDS 2 SIGN THIS KID ALREADY SOUNDS LIKE A MALE VERSION OF THE WEEKND (see what i did there? lol) http://soundcloud.com/love_at_first_sound/down
best thing ive heard since musiq soulchild/ glenn lewis
I’m closed minded and my ass is closed too! No Ocean!
Little Richard-Gay still listen to his music.Alexander the great,liked whatever and he damn near conquered the world. Boy George gay as hell-Still got universal hits. Luther Vandross one of the best loved voices in R&B. Everybody knew he was gay, Still play him to this day and he is loved the world over. Freddy Mercury one of the greatest performers/rock stars ever. He was gay and so into dick it took his life (aids before people knew). Omar from the wire is gay as hell. I’d still respect that nigga’s gangsta-(Cleo from set it off too). David Bowie is Bi-married to Iman and travels the world over. All those gay people fighting for this country in the military. Elton John, Richard Pryor was bi sucked all types of dick even did stand up about it. He’s the king of comedy. I like that white bitch Ellen,Wanda Sykes is all about pussy, but I’ll be damned if she ain’t funny. Elton John Me’chelle N’dechello etc… Listen I love pussy. Not Bi, but a heterosexual male secure in his sexuality. Having grown up in hip hop. I’m not a glee fan but I know “the gays” are just people. You sister,little brother, cousin,teacher,hair dresser, etc. As it has been stated in so many posts it’s 2012 “smart” people ain’t got time for the bullshit. President ain’t got time for the bullshit. I don’t have time for the….well maybe this one time for this one post but as soon as this bleezy is rolled up I’m out. Anyway yeah I would never in my life listen to a gay rapper. Rap is all about painting the picture details,bragging etc. I’ll be damned if I wanna hear some gay conquer stories over a backbeat. I personally feeI R&B is different however. When I listen to R&B it’s more of a feeling– Anita Baker is singing to some dude who used to break her back every night,but that’s not what I hear. I hear and see me and some older woman I used to fuck across the street from my high school.I listen to rap— I interpret R&B.I won’t watch a gay guy movie (because my stomach turns and I taste oil and salt in my throat if it even looks like they might make out). But I have gay co-workers,good friends,relatives. It’s different I’m not in their bedroom. Odd future however you feel is young and the future already has that Gay girl as their DJ. And now their hook singer guy is gay. He was always away from the groupon his own and now we know why he was doing them a favor.Niggaz is just going to have to deal. As long as you treat me with respect,you ain’t Sandusky or bishop long shit going on. Let them fruity niggaz live. I love my black people,black white,spanish,asian, bitches. I love my ig’nant bang bang shoot’em up fuck a bitch and fuck you I gets money Hip Hop. I play it loud in my beats or crib. I love my R&B to write zone out or fuck a bitch(nothing gets the panties down faster). As a Black man in America no one has to point out to me what discrimination feels like or the irony of hating that which is different or I don’t understand. I got your back Frank Ocean, you too Dave chappelle,Chris Brown, and Michael Vick. Had Lebrons too before the ring. Sorry for the rant but I just care…oh blunts rolled-Like the previous posters said in much less words. It’s 2012 grow up niggaz
@Blaxdon Truth !!!!!!! Most Intelligent Comment / / / /
Music is dope but…
Frank fucked it up for niggas that was riding around the way knockin Nostalgia, Ultra… playing Cocaine in the dorms and what not. Now even females looking at niggas like… why are you listening to Frank?
It’s a double standard because niggas don’t care that Syd is gay and knock The Internets all day… because it’s dope to hear a woman sing to another woman. But niggas can’t really rock with Frank like that anymore, because no one… and I mean no one… wants to hear a man serenade another man.
It’s unfortunate cause Frank was about to be that dude.
Hip Hop has always maintained a don’t ask don’t tell policy.
….o well, it is what it is
FTW
@ t says when I hear this dude all I can see is him singing to dudes and gobblin dicks.
straight dudes ain’t imagining shit like that. actual straight dudes. not dudes on the fence or in the closet or under the bed but secure dudes alot of yawl postin that anti shit really sound suspect. I feel like if u gay then b gay, don’t lie or perp to a female I’ma probably b fuckin (cause I’m actually gettin pussy) be I respect anybody bein true to them that’s not worried about what another mawfucka has to say that probably doesn’t completely understand themselves. most of yawl simpleminded folks ain’t been through enough adversity in life to know your consistency. case in point alot of people fold under pressure: snitches, jail house fags, triflin hoes (if that money get low), fuck niggas (if that money get low). like I said in the other post as long as Frank isn’t detailing any homo shit I cpould care less if he pitching or catching. Wayne kissed a man in the mouth and most yawl still on his dick. Let him live this song some shit I get high to and appreciate how sweet life is (not sweet as in sugar in ya tank sweet, but, intellectuals should know what I mean)
Commend Frank for coming out .. here ..joint this Facebook group !
https://www.facebook.com/groups/328621733889266/
Decent song, nothing I wanna hear on repeat constantly. But If Frank Ocean is really bisexual, why couldn’t just say that? Not post some long, romance novel type about the passionate days & nights he had with another guy? Not even Lance Bass did that shit.
FUCK ALL THAT,,,,,HE PUT HIS BUSINESS OUT THERE,,,,,THEN DROPPED A COUPLE OF INTERNET SINGLES,,,,,SOUNDS LIKE A MARKETING SCHEME TO ME,,,,,,A LOT OF COMMENTS IS SAYING HIS SEXUALITY SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS MUSIC,,,,,,IS THAT RIGHT,,,,THIS NIGGA RELEASES A DAMN NEAR FOUR PAGE LETTER,,,LOLOL,,,,,,NIGGAS IS CORNY,,,THATS MY WORD,,,,,NIGGAS LOVE USING HIP-HOP TO FURTHER THIER AGENDA,,,,THAT GAY SHIT IS NOT HIP-HOP,,,THAT GAY SHIT IS WHAT IT IS,,,SOME GAY SHIT,,,,,,IF HOMOSEXUALS WANT THEIR RIGHTS OR WHATEVER THE FUCK IT IS THEY WANT,,,,THEN CREATE A NEW STYLE OF MUSIC,,,,,,,DA FUCK,,,,,HIP-HOP SHOULDN’T HAVE TO ACCEPT,,,,SOME COCK AND BALLS SHIT,,,,,CAUSE SOME FREAK AS NIGGA WANNA BUST OFF,,,,FUCK THAT,,,,STAND FOR SOMETHING OR FALL FOR ANYTHING,,,,,,,,,,REAL HIP-HOP HEADS STAND UP AND SAY FUCK THAT,,,IS NOTHING SACRED,,,,,,,,,,
respect your opinion. and I’m sure he’s trying to sell records, who the fuck ain’t? but I don’t think he’s fronting about the being gay shit. and about exploiting things….that’s all most of these artists do- exploit lifestyles that the majority of they as really don’t want any parts of- gangs, violence, niggas stuck behind the fence for life (or most of that bitch)….niggas been exploiting niggas for the longest. If Frank trying to get that gay money I ain’t hatin it’s pobably not gon motivate any straight person to buy his shit but most of the ppl I know I aint buyin albums anyway…the only artist I support economically is Nas and sometimes Jeezy…. being honest but to dude I’m replying to I feel u tho and I use to be shut off to till I realized that everybody has their thing, I prefer fat asses and women with natural hair, but everybody is different some more out there than others….? if u was trapped in a burning car and a gay dude tried to help u would u refuse him? or in any type of serious bind? ppl r ppl as long as they trying to influence my son’s on shit I don’t agree with or somebody trying to harm me or mines then I’m straight…damn i had another point but I’m high as fuck
No pun intended.
Why does older soul/r&b sonically sound better than this? Sup with this mix?!
Good tune, nonetheless.
Never in my life have I heard so many negative comments towards a man’s music just because of his sexual preference. It’s truly disgusting. His music is still fuckin gr8, and half of u bastards don’t posses an ounce of the talent he contains in his pinky finger. A lot of our entertainers and regular everyday ppl are gay, so is the world gonna stop functioning becuz of that? I doubt it. I just wish everyone would shut the fuck up and just LISTEN.
how u gonna hate on frank ocean for being gay but you love michael jackson when he raped little ass boys lol smfh
Rampage is a cunt. obvs likes nice big cock in the butthurt
real talk though, i got nothing against gay ppl, but how you gonna relate to any RnB joint when you don’t even know if he’s singin bout guys or girls. nigga fuck that.
