Frank Ocean's New Visual Album Is Finally Here & Twitter Can't Cope
NEW FRANK MATERIAL. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
Frank Ocean has been rather cruel to his fans over the past few years, teasing them with cryptic social media posts and empty promises.
Thankfully, the wait is now (finally) over and everyone has lost the plot over new Frank material. And yes, THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
After what felt like a lifetime of waiting, we thought Frank's new album Boys Don't Cry was going to be released earlier this month. Yet all he teased us with was a rather mysterious web stream of an empty room that didn't give anything away at all. Fans left confused and slightly disapointed and wondering what the hell he was playing at.
But OH MY GOD, he's redeemed himself more than we thought he was even capable of.
After more than a year of promising an album to follow up channel ORANGE, he's suddenly dropped an 18 track visual album titled Endless. It's jam-packed with collaborations with the likes of James Blake, Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood, Sampha and Jazmine Sullivan.
The great news doesn't stop there.

According to Rolling Stone, Endless is just a placeholder until Apple releases his 'real' album this weekend. Yet apparently it will have a different title to 'Boys Don't Cry'. Yes, we're all confused too, but very excited nonetheless.
Naturally Twitter has gone into complete meltdown but we'll let them off - it is a pretty exciting day for us all:

We forgive you, Frank. Just don't leave it so long next time.
