Frank Ocean is one of the most fascinating singers, songwriters and rappers of our times. Raised by his music-loving mother, he decided to become a songwriter by the age of thirteen and began to record music by the time he reached high school, paying for studio time by doing odd jobs. In 2005, after his recording facility was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, he moved to Los Angeles, where he soon made useful contacts, selling his first song to Noel Gourdin at the age of nineteen. Eventually, he was hired by many established record producers and artists to contribute, earning enough by songwriting to lead a comfortable, but anonymous life. However, he felt that he had not left his school and his family just for that. Very soon, he self-released his debut mixtape, ‘Nostalgia, Ultra’ and became famous overnight. His next release, a studio album called ‘channel ORANGE’ was a super hit, selling 131,000 copies in its first week and also earning him three MTV nominations as well as number of awards. His third and fourth release were ‘Endless’, a visual album and ‘Blonde’, his second studio album. As of now, he has completed his fifth project, which is yet to be released.
