Don't get me wrong he's not a bad artist, but he's not this generational talent that most people make him out to be. what makes him stand out among his peers?
his vocal ability is ok, nothing really outstanding. the lack of vocal range is mainly what holds him back. there are quite a few r&b/soul artists that are superior to him in this category.
in terms of lyrical prowess, he's also ok-ish. many people see him as this lyrical mastermind but I have yet to hear a single song of his that has truly impressive songwriting. feel free to prove me wrong tho.
I won't comment on the production, cause I feel like he intentionally keeps it a minimum.
what makes Frank Ocean a generational talent? what makes him a top 3 artist of the decade? I'm genuinely curious to know btw
He made Channel Orange and Blonde. /thread
If he only made Nostalgia Ultra and Endless he'd still be pretty great
op thinks this a talent show
it’s the music op, the music is what makes him great

you can’t just sit back enjoy music ig
nah the mainstream doesn't really f*** with frank like that. most people will tell you they listen to him, just to sound musically cultured.
When I listen to it I feel like it’s really good
if Frank doesnt have impressive songwriting who does
And this man said he doesn’t have a good vocal range. Clearly never listened to At Your Best lmfao.
Uninformed opinion thread
Rather, name me 5 artists this decade that you believe have a better pen than Frank OP. I’m curious where you’re coming from.
