exactly why I keep @ him in carti and frank thread

the deal for this LP he ends up signing is going to be fat asf

Posted on Donda thread not so long ago

no way

still hoping he didn’t abandon the rave album concept

hope this not a repeat of the NYT article

Lets f***ing go
Just when I thought Donda had no way of being topped this year the one guy that could do it is here

which article

link???

distribution deal like xl for blonde

yeah I figured

only just finding out about this though this is huge

I don't remember the page. @sab can you look at the posting history?

this is the biggest album follow up since dark fantasy, can’t believe the monumental task of dropping an lp after blonde

album talks? this early? cant be mad at that

HDD know their s*** they're tapped in

When you think about it, Frank has honestly kept us well fed with great music. His release strategies and overall silence (to us) are just shocking and hard to digest in the social media era

nytimes.com/2016/11/20/arts/music/frank-ocean-blonde-interview.html

a version of this article dropped back in 2016 and said blonde was coming June/july iirc

frank then delayed it to august cause they "leaked" the date. Basically Frank wants to be the one in control of how and when he puts out his deliverables. HDD reporting this early might make him push it back like he did in 2016

frank kanye kendrick travis drake Cole all dropping same year potentially is WILD

don’t believe he already began showing executives though, you get a bag if you drop before coachella and his performance is 2 years away and it definitely does not fit in with frank bowing down to the higher ups

there’s 0% chance this comes out this year

HDD do not lie their track record is great

this potential deal already goes against the grain, them reporting him previewing music doesn't seem that far fetched

MASTER OF SUBVERSION

my guess is Q1 or Q2 of next year, maybe the summer again
