We gotta stop blaming the fans for expecting bare minimum
Especially when heās 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 itās about the food not about pleasing you
thatās what some of yāall 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
jai paul
The goat of mysterious artists (he's not that mysterious just shy as hell)
I f***ed with it, man.
from what im seeing, it doesnt sound āhorrificā
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
now that this development has taken place will we still be pretending Biking was a good song
i mean the 2017 festival tour was also really messy for the most part except for FYF. this really shouldn't be unexpected
Jesus Christ yall are cooked!!

By sidelining music and centre-staging twerking security guards Frank asks a bold question about what counts as āperformanceā. 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 dāart as argued by Walter Benjamin in his seminal āThe Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproductionā, updated for the age of automation of our current zeitgeist. 10/10ā

Not even talking about Frank. Dude was comparing music in general to burgers lol
(his dream of a perfect release was ruined, he's not mysterious he's just traumatized)
Just like me fr
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

he had a team of "dancers" shuffle around for 10 minutes before singing
he played nights from a aux
