Not sure anyone can defend that. I never heard of him before this and it was horrible

He just made a great first impression on a ton of people.

I like him because of this song:
Frank Ocean on SNL

these are good too:
NSFW Pyramids
Novacane

Honestly, if you don't like Miguel or The Weeknd or Usher, you won't get Frank Ocean.

i don't get why he's a fraud. i don't care for his music, but i understand why people do care for it. just because he doesn't meet your taste doesn't mean you can't at least appreciate what he's doing.

Channel Orange is a fantastic album. Frank Ocean is the man! You clearly don't like that kind of music because he is very well respected amongst his peers. I know Pitchfork isn't the end all be all of music critique but they placed it #2 on top albums of 2012. Clearly some people dig it.

My take is only judging by his performance last night, if he's whats great about new artist, music is now crap. But maybe he's a great writer or producer.

What I find off the most is, he's obviously at a lauching pad of his career. He was nominated quite a few times last night, so I'm sure he's already somewhat sucessful. But you get a chance on the national stage where there will be people who've never heard of you and you choose to sing about Forest Gump, and do it badly.

It's like the mighty Casey striking out.

The Forrest Gump song is crappy, but I like some of his other songs. I think it's interesting that he's from Nola and moved to Cali after Katrina.

Frank Ocean is pretty awesome. I didnt see the grammy's performance but he is legit.

Music isnt dead we are in a golden age of music due to the internet even though it also caused this shitty period of popular music.
