Just two days after dropping his surprise visual album Endless, and one day after premiering an unexpected music video for “Nikes,” Frank Ocean is shocking fans again with the release of yet another album, Blond.
The album arrived on iTunes exclusively on Apple Music on Saturday (August 20). And while the album cover features bold print reading “blond,” the music-streaming service has it listed as “blonde.”
The aforementioned “Nikes” opens the 17-track album that does not appear to feature any guests, though the credits list that made its way online includes Andre 3000, Beyonce, James Blake, Jamie XX, Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, and Tyler, the Creator.
Remember when Ocean claimed he had “two versions” way back in April 2015. Maybe this is what he meant!
