I think you can't really compare them, frank ocean is a niche artist just like Tyler
the thing is frank is really good at marketing his music and his image
The Weeknd is a pop artist now, while he still has songs that I like a lot he's more willing to make pop tunes just to sell records ( some great, some that not good )
incomparable cause frank ain't an rnb artist
incomparable cause frank ain't an rnb artist
Tbh imo Frank is an Rnb artist
I’d categorize him as Rnb/indie
Sometimes he raps but 90% of the time he’s singing and he’s very experimental as a artist which is why its hard to categorize him but at his core he’s definately an rnb artist

The Weeknd went pop and post Channel Orange Frank isn’t R&B (plus Frank never repped being R&B)
Miguel is the correct answer in terms of vocals, quality of projects and having hits
