“Not carti convincing Frank to come out of retirement”—Fans LOL as a snippet of new Frank Ocean music drops

It seems like an eternity since Frank Ocean last dropped an album. The Blonde and Channel Orange fame star has an enigmatic personality and a voice smoother than fine silk. His music is like therapy to the ears, which makes you feel all the emotions all at once. But Frank has an annoying habit: he drops a banger but then disappears into thin air, making the fans wait for his next album all the more agonizing.

Fans roar in delight upon catching a glimpse of Frank Ocean's new album

Fans have waited patiently for Frank Ocean to drop his next song, or to at least give them something, anything, but to no avail. It was akin to watching paint dry in slow motion for the fans as time dragged on slower than the sloth from Zootopia. But fortunately, the wait now seems to be over as Frank dropped a snippet from his next album which took the internet by storm, sending the fans into delirium.

There was mass hysteria on the internet as fans took turns to express their delight and excitement upon hearing the news. Hilariously, Playboi Carti also got caught in the crosshairs as fans couldn't contain their elation:

"Not carti convincing frank to come out of retirement", joked one user (via X / @deepfakelatina)

"He's tryna take Cartis moment what a selfish guy", said another (via X/ @sirgoofy28)

The fans were in a celebratory mood and could scarcely believe what was unfolding before their eyes. One fan (@Bowenski) took it up a notch and hilariously promised monetary compensation when Frank Ocean finally drops the album:

"Man if we get one I’ll send you $10 personally (I also want one so bad so I couldn’t put a higher number)"

ABSOLUTE CINEMA!!

It has been so long since Frank last released an album that some fans couldn't believe their eyes, and who can blame them? They have been stuck in a limbo for the longest time, clutching onto their phones for their dear lives, waiting for an update on Blonde 2.0.

""New music" and "frank ocean" in the same sentence. Am I in a fever dream?, quipped one fan (via X / @ashleim1chelle)

"This gotta be AI generated right?", commented another amused fan (via X / @StayingChased)

Netizens were in a giddy mood and were also quick to thank Frank Ocean's rumored boyfriend Payton Talbott. He might have had some role to play in it...and we couldn't be more delighted.

"Omg Talbotts a star", complimented a fan (via X / @00ZombieAlt)

While the exact date for the album has still not yet been announced, we can only hope that it comes soon enough. It might finally be the right time to pay this guy (@walidffs) a visit again, who posted this on X in 2016:

"Frank Ocean dropped two albums, two visuals and a magazine in just 48 hours. He's about to disappear for 13 years."

Going by his prediction for Frank going AWOL for 13 years, he's way ahead of schedule. Let's just hope that the new album drops soon so that we can join in the fun.

With superhits such as Blonde and Channel Orange, Frank Ocean has already cemented his legacy as the R&B genre's resident superstar. Remember, he’s the guy who ghosted us for four years, then came back with Blonde like, “Hey, sorry I was gone, here’s a masterpiece.” We are certain that the new album will go just as hard.

So here's to Frank Ocean: where mystery meets melody, and the only thing more elusive than his music is his whereabouts.
