it was from an interview where he said he didn’t have a passion for it but used it as a way up
I don’t have the link but I definitely saw the post in another Frank thread yesterday
Damn he and vince are the same
jewelry is inherently an expensive item though? like you can’t make cheap luxury jewelry and be expected to taken seriously. He wants to make a brand that will outlast him. This isn’t a tee shirt that he’s selling for $300 because he can.
I think the biggest issue I have is A) the multi million lab grown jewelry, but even that is something I can get to be sustainable or so I’d assume. My B) issue is how the store is so exclusive you have to make a reservation to shop there which I think is stupid as f*** and shows he really only cares about the jays of the world. I wasn’t gonna make a huge stink like Americana but what I did notice is 30 of my friends posting about his coming back on social media like it’s a huge deal when really what he’s doing now is almost turning his back on his core music fan base the way Rihanna has done recently. Which sucks but it is what it is. Hopefully he really does come back for 2023
Seen quotes in here about how he was never passionate about making music but he knew that he was good at it and could use it to elevate himself to the lifestyle he wanted.
During the homer process though he worked on an entire new album so idk

Nah at Rihanna’s products were affordable and geared specifically to people who listened to her previous stuff
The other side of it is that he literally scammed his core audience to make this whole venture happen with the vinyls which is something I don’t think anyone should support

I guess that is facts, but I moreso was thinking bout how she consistently teases music and then says she’s never dropping again, but you’re right that there is way more of an audience crossover. I meant no diss to you btw
I'll be honest, I never understood the passionate, rapturous praise for Frank. I like his work but the whole thing about him not being that into music... you could hear that throughout his discography and it put me off.
Then again, I tend to feel like male singer-songwriters have an ulterior motive behind their work and I tend to be distrustful of that. So maybe it's just me
What about his albums gave you the impression that he isn’t “that into music”? Genuinely curious

I was talking to my girl we were both baffled by how many locals were acting like this was a w
I’m happy to see he’s ok but this s*** does nothing for me at all

People trying to say “it’s not that deep” or “get a chargeback” and all that s*** like these artists’ fanbases aren’t built off of trust and a strong relationship
like sure we could go do that but then what kind of integrity is that on both ends

And then I hate how people lw act like you’re a b**** when you want to expect more. I don’t think I celeb worship anyone except maybe Kanye but even then I know he’s a flawed individual. I just hate to see my faves do scummy s*** cause the music means something
But honestly the only reason niggas is in shambles over this s*** is because they won’t actually be able to buy diamonds that are associated with frank ocean that’s all it is
Frank stans let's now worship Thundercat instead he posts dank memes
Nah nah I’ve seen all that Gucci he wears. He’s just like Frank
It's okay when Kanye does it cause hes just f***ing with our heads
But Frank f***ing with yall pockets
Nah nah I’ve seen all that Gucci he wears. He’s just like Frank
I mean the man can treat himself too
Frank stans let's now worship Thundercat instead he posts dank memes
Frank stans flocking to Thundercat would be terrible and I'm pretty sure Zack Fox will probably call them crackers at some point.
