krishna boundnot being fully mainstream? he has consistently high tier album feature placements, gets headlines at major music festivals when he feels like it, has performed on late night TV, every time he releases something he gets on year end top 10 lists from every major publication. Blonde sold 276k first week and is now platinum
what more does this guy gotta do to be considered mainstream They want him to have number 1 hits every single year. He's just not that type of artist. Some are just weird and have a weirdo perception on being mainstream and radio.

Sep 5, 2020Frank ocean is fully mainstream despite how bad you guys want to think otherwise
Sep 5, 2020Early on Frank had a top 40 hit and major placements
He’s still very mainstream due to who he associates with but he just doesn’t make radio pop music anymore. Him being bi has nothing to do with it he’s such a good writer you have to really be listening to his earlier stuff to know what it’s really about and mainstream radio listeners just aren’t doing that

no I think frank releasing music once every 4 years prevents him from being fully mainstream
and in between that he was working with: Jay Z, Beyonce, Kanye, John Mayer etc..
and then after that Calvin Harris, Travis Scott, Young thug, Rocky & French Montana....he's as mainstream as it gets

Sep 5, 2020why do y’all think every artists’s goal is being some kind of mainstream/commercialized version of themselves

All I'm saying. He's clearly not getting into that same range top 20 artists are getting while being one of the most hyped artists so I was just asking why
he’s not connected to a label so he has no radio push and no commercial push. Every song at the top of the 100 has radio and promotion to get it there

He’s not bi, he’s gay
he says he’s bi so he’s bi

I mean if Frank Ocean released a s***ty mid album every year instead of a legendary one every four I don't think he'd be any more popular.

He prevents himself from being bigger but you really cant tell how his sexuality would change anything. I feel like him being bi actually fit with his demographic but maybe it's the other way around.
