Frank Ocean “Thinking About You”

by Ismael AbduSalaamJuly 28, 2011

You can count Frank Ocean amongst the few other acts that makes R&B music with the male perspective in mind. The cold bluntness of "Thinking About You's" second verse ("No I don't like you/I just thought you were cool enough to kick it/Got a beach house/ I can sell you in Idaho...) is countered by the vulnerability heard in Ocean's falsetto and other lyrics

You can count Frank Ocean amongst the few other acts that makes R&B music with the male perspective in mind. The cold bluntness of “Thinking About You’s” second verse (“No I don’t like you/I just thought you were cool enough to kick it/Got a beach house/ I can sell you in Idaho…) is countered by the vulnerability heard in Ocean’s falsetto and other lyrics (“Do you not think that far ahead?/ ‘Cause I’ve been thinking about forever…Do you think about me still?”). This track was leaked by Ocean himself last night, and there’s no word on where this will end up.
