    We gotta stop blaming the fans for expecting bare minimum

    Especially when he’s shown how good it gets

    The narrative where frank ocean fans are mad because it wasn't regular needs to end

    This dude built stairs and they ate it up

    It wasn't that

    There's no narrative its just the truth lol if you're a frank ocean fan and still expect him to do anything you want you're just setting yourself up for disappointment

    imagine ordering a burger and they bring out a chicken sandwich and say sorry it’s about the food not about pleasing you

    that’s what some of y’all are effectively saying right now lmao

    I thought the set was kind of a mess too but that aside how are u on a music forum comparing music to literal fast food

    Why was it bad the song list is bangers only and apparently he played a great white Ferrari remix

    whole show felt awkward

    he showed up an hour late

    dj mix that could've been cool if he had built up to something after and used it as a transition but he then just kinda walked around stage while nights and nikes played without him singing

    him ending it by being like "yeah its over curfew is now bye guys"

    No one is upset that the show wasn't normal

    From how it sounds they are upset that he barely performed

    By sidelining music and centre-staging twerking security guards Frank asks a bold question about what counts as ā€˜performance’. At a time where queer identity is under attack the crooner centres self-expression and celebrates joy as an act of resistance. And at a juncture where AI asks us to wonder what counts as creation, the brazen use of backing tracks and lip syncing brings to focus how technology can devalue the aura of an objet d’art as argued by Walter Benjamin in his seminal ’The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction’, updated for the age of automation of our current zeitgeist. 10/10ā€

    Like even watching him in this you can how much more he’s into it.

    He looked like he didn’t want to be there last night.
