    Frank stans flocking to Thundercat would be terrible and I'm pretty sure Zack Fox will probably call them crackers at some point.

    Lmao Zack fox would go off but there's def crossover between the two fanbases already

    idk if this is known, but I think I found the twitter of frank's dad and he's posting some legal papers or something

    Post proof of that because up until recently Frank rarely even ventured outside of music that literally was his main focus and he would spend years working on the same project

    Page 37 of americana's thread

    What gave you the desire to pursue music as a career?
    It was a driver to get out of the neighborhood. I remember feeling no attachment to music necessarily, more an attachment to what music could bring if I succeeded, you know, financially. And that meant freedom from my situation at the time, and maybe what I was projecting onto my own future.

    I wouldn't pin it on Frank Ocean specifically, fans create whatever fantasy they want in their heads

    You want the artist you like to have the same beliefs and ideals as you and to be able to relate to them... this happens with everyone

    I'm not surprised by this move at all. He's always struck me as a pragmatist/materialistic dude

    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

    Artist like Rihanna and frank ocean doing business venture other than music when they’re in their 30’s is not them abandoning fans it’s called life lol and making a shop reservations only is not a foreign concept at all dude

  • I will say this though shoutout Rocky for finding out ways to make a lot of money while not alienating his fanbase. He lets the music do that lmao

    TESTING OUT NOW
    ALL $MILES COMING....

    I agree but I’m pinning Frank specifically because he’s the type of artist to make it easier for fans to build up delusions because of more “mysterious” persona and not opening it up about his personal life/habits like that (even tho it’s still quite on surface as mentioned itt)

    But like you don’t see mfs trying to say Gunna is some standards-rejecting anti-materialist because it would just be obviously not true lol (s/o Gunna btw)
