Frank Ocean- “Sweet Life”
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
The guy who everyone has been talking about this week decided to release a new track that will reside on his debut album Channel Orange. He let loose this gem through the same outlet that he let go the news on his sexuality; tumblr. I respect Frank’s honesty and believe that his album still will be one of my summer favorites. If “Sweet Life” stands as a testament to what Channel Orange will sound like, we are in for a treat. Although Chris Brown and Usher weren’t able to sell well with there recent albums, I think Frank may just be topping them this summer with his debut. The Odd Future member is talented and all of his latest offerings have proven that. Enjoy “Sweet Life” and look out for his album July 17th.
