Must Hear: Frank Ocean – ‘Forrest Gump’

Published: Tuesday 29th Jan 2013 by David

‘My fingertips and my lips, they burn…from the cigarettes‘.

So, before we receive- and will undoubtedly enjoy- the video, take a fresh listen to the James Ryan Ho produced jam, below!

    • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

      may you and him catch the same disease, now I’d love that!!

    • wendy January 29, 2013

      Watching the Tamar and her husband want to find someone to carry their child. Just like Beyonce did but the difference is they came out in the open with it.

      • mob January 30, 2013

        You knoww this damn queen was lying to drum up support for this horrible single and vid. He’s a con artist!

  5. Beysus January 29, 2013

    HIS MUSIC JUST SUCKS.. ITS SO WACK

    CHRISTINA BROWNS MUSIC >>>> FRANCINE OCEAN MUSIC

  6. Lana Del Slay January 29, 2013

    B****** be hating on Frank, but they forgot to Flop And Fortune. Those albums haven’t even outsold CO combined.

    • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

      Trick you must be on dope! Put that crystal meth down and stfu. CO is complete garbage sold on the strength of FAKE Ocean taking a d***! I heard 2 songs that I thought were passable but this here is just ewwww mixed with uughhhh

      • Common Sense January 29, 2013

        Sounds like some bitchass h** (You) is pressed at the truth. Breezy is a f****** flop. Frank is just getting started and when he wins his Grammys he’ll be even more set up for success.

  7. Never That Serious January 29, 2013

    Awful…..if he weren’t gay,his album would have been certified toothpaste next yr

    • Justin>>>>JC>>>>>JB January 29, 2013

      Ummm, people loved him BEFORE he came out? And since when did someone being gay make someone spend their hard earned money on an album.

      • JOSE January 29, 2013

        ^^exactly frank was critically acclaimed before he came out,they mad lol

      • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

        LOL tell that to the ppl that jumped on the bandwagon the minute they discovered he was allegedly gay. They had everyhing but a ticker tate parade down mainstreet for him. 🙂

    • JP January 29, 2013

      LMAO LMAO not certified toothpaste. you betta go da fuq awf!!! I can’t stand Frank Ocean or the hype surrounding him but i’d still let him smash lls

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      So sorry you lack the taste in music not to appreciate a good song like this. It’s not a masterpiece but it’s better than 95% of the garbage Chris Brown has ever released.

  8. Yolo January 29, 2013

    Wack ass n**** he’s so overrated its ridiculous

    • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

      Watch him win a Grammy tho!

      • SlayDeleAdkins January 29, 2013

        Watch him win all 6 tho! =(

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      Whack? Why because he doesn’t sing about b******, drugs, cars, clubs like all the other n*****?

      • JOHNVIDAL January 29, 2013

        Must be that! These kids…

  9. cake like lady gaga January 29, 2013

    NO ONE CURR!!!

    Frank is a fraud, just like Lipyonce… He is fake like Lipyonce.

    He thought that by writing a letter he would steal SLAYdy GODga’s Monsters and The Lil Monsters will go to him.

    Sis, you can sit, no Monster is here for you! _/

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      No in order to steal the monsters he’d have to kiss ass 23 hours of the day and write awful songs like Born This Gay to pander to sheep gays.

  10. DONKEY BOOTY January 29, 2013

    Would anyone outside of his fanbase care about him if he hadn’t come out of the closet? Personally, I don’t get his appeal. I tried to give his music a chance but I was just very underwhelmed by what I heard. I guess my expectations were sky high after all the hype I read about him. I don’t know if he has enough music buying fans to sustain his career after the brouhaha about him being gay dies down. The Grammys might give him a boost in sales, but if they don’t, he might have to get a s** change operation to keep people interested in him.

    • cake like lady gaga January 29, 2013

      PREACH!!!!!

      As the collection basket is circulating, PREACH THAT PREACH!!!

    • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

      LOL 🙂

      After that tell all letter to sell CO and the recent publicity stunt he played with Chris that prepped him for this new single and vid in route to the Grammy’s, I was really wondering what he would have to do for an encore to get ppl excited about him again? A s** change would do it! 🙂

  11. OVOForever January 29, 2013

    Love love LOVE you Franky boo. You and my king should tag team that woman beating beast.

    • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

      Yes I can see Drakevelyn, who assaulted countless women with bottles at club WiP in NY in July, and Fake Ocean “teaming up” on a “project” considering they are batting for the same team!

      • SlayDeleAdkins January 29, 2013

        DEAD at Drakevelyn!!

  12. Kreayshawn January 29, 2013

    This guy is sooooo boring! F****** f***** ass c***

    • RESPECT THE VOICE!!!! January 29, 2013

      He has sold more than you!!! Oop!!

  13. QueenCeline January 29, 2013

    Something tells me that TGJ knew the tea on Frank before he wrote that letter.

  14. DDN January 29, 2013

    Frank sings slightly better than chris and thats not saying much

    • AdoreMiguel January 29, 2013

      Are you for real. Chris can’t record with auto tune so sit. Even Drake is a better singer than Chris now.

      • GREG January 29, 2013

        Ok you guys have lost your minds….you can say you dont like chris or how he behaves but you cannot deny that dudes talent…that dude can sing his a** off without auto tune…i mean i get annoyed with Beyonce but i would never deny that the girl has been graced with a voice…lets just keep it real.

      • mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

        LOL you obviously have a hearing probably. Chris Brown has an amazing voice and uses AT on some of his dance pop ish….so what?

  15. Kreayshawn January 29, 2013

    Nobody would even care if he was black if he wouldn’t have came out but he wanted the world to know he suck big co*k so he had to stick it where it hurts. He should have just stay in the closet because he is a b**** ass f*****

    • AzealiaBankable January 29, 2013

      Has Kreayshawn gone triple s*** stain yet?

      • Kreayshawn January 29, 2013

        I am kreayshawn;) my album has sold 9k this far from soundscan so you can go sit you’re c*** looking ass down

      • RESPECT THE VOICE!!!! January 29, 2013

        9k!! llollo!!! You SUCK!!!! B****!!!!!

    • STONY January 29, 2013

  16. Kreayshawn January 29, 2013

    Frank enjoys the feel of a BIG BLACK HARD LONG C*** IN HIS ASS! He does not give a f*** if the world see him as a f***** ass c*** who drinks kool-aid he dont give a f*** he gonna suck that c** until that n**** toes fall asleep.. Frank holds nothing back he loves that d*** he will blow up the KFC FOR A BIG HARD LONG C*** IN HIS MOUTH

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      For a black hater you sure do fantasize a lot about Frank and all the c*** he enjoys.

  17. Kreayshawn January 29, 2013

    Frank would be damn if he pass up on a c*** ass n**** stick his long ass penis in his asshole and c** like its no tomorrow. F***** ass coons loves to stick c*** in ass with a empty box of KFC chicken next to them

  18. ARTPOPPINIT January 29, 2013

    Frank is more talented and respected than Chris ever was. People were stanning for Frank during the NU era so why are some of you dirty stunt queens talking like he only got famous on the week he put out CO.

    Chris is a typical black fool who is too stupid to see that he is giving the white media all the ammunition they need to bash him. There are public figures who have abused kids and KILLED people who don’t get the hate he gets, but he doesn’t know how to play the game so he stays losing.

    • BionicLotus January 29, 2013

      SIT! Just SIT! You stan for a b**** who preaches about peace and love but does the opposite behind the scenes. Perez is gonna spill on the tea on her, INCLUDING how she helped to blacklist Christina before B2B. Hypocritical s*** you are!

      • Lana Del Slay January 29, 2013

        Sister, we all know Payologa was behind all of that but what’s that got to do with Chris?

      • cake like lady gaga January 29, 2013

        A h** will NOT come for Queen Gaga.. SIT DOWN, before we make you sit down. B**** ass trick!

      • Lana Del Slay January 29, 2013

        I know this funky b**** didn’t call me a ho when Gaga used to f*** Fusari for tracks. I’ve got the true tea on that b**** so let’s not go there today m’lady.

      • BionicLotus January 29, 2013

        Who is the h**? I hope you don’t mean me.

      • DragginForMrsCarter January 29, 2013

        Who dares to mention Rob Flopsari’s name in this thread? Don’t make a b**** get irate in this mutha.

      • cake like lady gaga January 29, 2013

        I was actually referring to the b**** that stans for FAThina (BionicFLOPtus), but since you also consider yourself a h**, yes I was also talking to you too @Lame Del H**.

        You two h*** will deal while I and SLAYdy GODga remain unbothered by yall.

    • JOSE January 29, 2013

      agreed! frank was critically acclaimed before he came out but you can’t take ppl serious who stan for rihanna, chris brown, beyonce, etc they dont know anything about music and all of their faves have used publicity stunts

  23. mob: Breezy tell’em, It aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun January 29, 2013

    “While Sunday night saw Frank Ocean embroiled in fresh drama with Pop Prince Chris Brown, he counteracted with the negativity with much needed dose of positivity”
    ————————————————————————————–

    @SAM is this a joke?

    A** Ocean has received nothing but positive press since he told the WOMEN HE HAD BEEN USING that he too enjoys a good stiff one errrry now and then! As we should all see by now. Frankie Boy used Chris Brown’s rep for a PRE-GRAMMY PUBLICITY STUNT!

    So no intelligent thinker in the audience finds it in the least bit strange that ALL OF A SUDDEN & COMPLETELY OUT OF THE BLUE Chris Brown and FAKE Ocean would have brawl? At 3am outside of a recording studio where Chris had been working, FAKE Ocean twists his way onto the scene, blocks Chris’ car to prevent him from leaving, instigates the entire ordeal then rushes to twitter to tweet about it?

    ………OH YEAH AND BY THE WAY, HERE’S MY NEW SONG & STILL PICS FROM THE VIDEO SHOOT ALTHOUGH MY HAND WAS BRUISED AND i MIGHT NOT BE ABOUT TO PERFORM AT THE GRAMMY’S! 0_O

    #AR15

    • facts January 29, 2013

      Agreed

    • NaviKisses January 29, 2013

      HAVE A SEAT.
      You wanna blame everybody BUT Chris for his problems.
      First it was the Queen.
      Then it was Raz.
      Then it was Frank.
      Then it was Drake.
      Then it was the queen again.
      Then it was Frank.

      He’s disturbed.

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      Still pics and a video that were probably shot WEEKS if not months ago? My god you Breezy fans are borderline retarded.

  24. 2bad2bme January 29, 2013

    i like Frank but he is starting to make me upset keep hearing him starting sh*t with Chris Brown…I mean c’mon now

  25. THE BORBZ R ALL SECRITLY IN RHENNA NAVEY January 29, 2013

    is frank manic depressive? he look like a blk forest gump. h** is he able to get so much man a**? did he suck d*** good? will he lick my b**** for free? i give free blowjobs to any1 who ask!

  26. MadameAdkins January 29, 2013

    How shameful that Frank is being called a f***** when most of the dudes y’all stan for are on the dl.

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      Looks like you touched a nerve with all the dislikes you’re getting LOL! Bunch of closet cases talking s***.

  27. sorry January 29, 2013

    frank is a homo a abomination. devil may be ruling now, but whether u believe it o not . every knees will bow down before the almighty.

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      Why say “sorry” when you’re going to follow it up with such a hateful statement?
      I’m not sorry to say that whether you believe it or not when we die we rot in the ground end of story. I’m sure you no longer believe in Santa Claus so it’s time to let the other imaginary friends go too.

  28. Qutsar January 29, 2013

    There are so many homophobes on this blog, it defeats the purpose of freedom of speech and critical thinking, thank goodness most of the idiots on this site are not Franks Fans, I wonder why it is allowed to continue, add a Filter for the word F***** please, so we can see what else these pathetically ignorant illiterate LOSERS who FREQUENT this site will have to say, when they can no longer jump to that word to release their frustrations.

    • cake like lady gaga January 29, 2013

      B**** you will not dictate what we can and can’t write. If you don’t like what we have to say then don’t visit TGJ, go visit aunt hiltons blog or something

    • Common Sense January 29, 2013

      The funny part is that the majority of the ones using it are a bunch of flaming queens that are probably just projecting the word they hear on a daily basis.

  29. Qutsar January 29, 2013

    This MobWive w**** should be blocked from this site, SHE ADDS NOTHING OF VALUE HERE,there are so many homophobes on this blog, it defeats the purpose of freedom of speech and critical thinking, thank goodness most of the idiots on this site are not Franks Fans, I wonder why it is allowed to continue, add a Filter for the word F***** please, so we can see what else these pathetically ignorant illiterate LOSERS who FREQUENT this site will have to say, when they can no longer jump to that word to release their frustrations.

    • James227 January 29, 2013

      MobWives not going anywhere. If someone should leave it should be you. Now it’s ok to call Chris Brown all types of names some I’ve never even heard before, but hay it’s Freedom of Speech and people can say what they want. Now about the word F***** most of the rappers use that & n**** so what.

      • Common Sense January 29, 2013

        If black rappers use the word f***** then they shouldn’t act like such b****** when white people call them n******.
        N*****=Ignorant/uneducated black man (what white s**** owners called their slaves)

  30. You Wanna Bey Me January 29, 2013

    I don’t understand…why is this a Must Hear? This s*** hella old

  31. Nay nay January 29, 2013

    O-V-E-R-R-A-T-E-D!!!

  32. LndoftheBlind January 29, 2013

    No matter what Chris Brown does he will always be the bad guy in the situation. if a box full of kittens was set on fire and he saved them people would be like like “he set the box on fire!” Chris Brown will always be in a lose lose situation because he was labeled as a “women beater”.

    • LndoftheBlind January 29, 2013

      Btw Franks voice is annoying, he sounds like he’s crying. Chris Brown is the superior vocalist of the two; he has broad range, he can go extremely high like a female and then go really deep like a baritone, his runs are sick, Similar to Brandy and he has control. Frank just has one generic crying like Trey Songz sound.

  33. Cream January 29, 2013

    Did y’all see Beyonce new pic with the football and her hand with a sexey Referee suit on ?? Lawd so sexey that grape juice get on it

  34. Cream January 29, 2013

    I don’t like Frank but Frank>>>>>>>> Chris brown thats what it is did chris brown last 3 ablums hit the 1mill mark yet???

  35. hellioss January 29, 2013

    Super Rich Kids is way better.

  36. David January 29, 2013

    Channel Orange is one of the best albums of 2012. I don’t understand how people can still legitimately get behind Chris Brown. Even with all his s***** personality, homophobia, and immaturity aside, his music is becoming more and more generic. You can’t even compare Chris Brown to the true talent that is Frank Ocean. So, please sit down Chris Brown stans. This s*** is getting way too old.

    xoxo,
    a big Chicago homo

    • livurlife January 29, 2013

      You may want to check on the people that are in Frank’s circle, they use more offensive slurs then should be allowed yet does Frank check them. NOPE just “crickets” B4 you label someone a homophobe you may want to do some research.

      • David January 29, 2013

        But I’m right about Chris Brown’s generic music, right?

    • James227 January 29, 2013

      To old hummm! You mean getting to old like the 2009 incident with Chris & Rihanna?

      • David January 29, 2013

        First of all, I think you mean “too.” Secondly, I didn’t mention anything about his disgusting acts to Rihanna. There have been more than enough times that Mr. Brown has displayed his true character – long after beating the s*** out of his girlfriend.

  37. Remix January 29, 2013

    i like this song.
    Haters can say what they want. Frank Ocean is a musical universe of his own, sublime lyrics, good melody and a lot of talent. Personally, I do not care if he is gay or not (hello we are in 2013!!), I considered just as a talented artist with an album I recall the critically acclaimed but hey, its core target n is certainly not the kids lol

    • Remix January 29, 2013

      lol and was iamtheinfluenc.com telling the truth? you’re an idiot if you believe everything you read on the web

  38. JOHNVIDAL January 29, 2013

    Damn… these people are crazy. I even had to read Adele and Frank Ocean talents are overrated and both are boring… coming from a Rihanna fan LMAO

  39. JOHNVIDAL January 29, 2013

    And… again with this? I don´t like to defend someone I don´t like that much but seriously… why do u care if he wrote a letter or not? Even if it was a publicity stunt it was one or two in a whole year… most of the people complaining on her stan for people who do it once a month… or a week: Rihanna, Chris Brown, Madonna, Lady Gaga, etc please give me a break
    Another thing: you can say his music is boring, you don´t like it, etc, it´s your taste and I can understand why you feel that, he´s really not commercial. But saying his music is WACK? Really? It´s undeniable this guy has much talent for making music. Accept it and move on. More people knew him cos of the letter (me included), but he was being already praised before that. it´s the typical artist critics love, it´s always been like that, no commercial appeal but undeniable talent

  40. Common Sense January 29, 2013

    Great track, beautifully sublime. With all the generic crap 2012 brought, I’m almost certain Channel Orange will win at least 1 Grammy.

  41. Girrrl January 29, 2013

    I’m not here for Frank “Gay for Pay” “I’m Coming Out” Ocean. All he does is use hype and sympathy to push this CO project. Hopefully the Grammys sees through his average music.

  42. cruz January 30, 2013

    It’s shocking to see people in the black community approach his sexuality with such ignorance. It’s as if the entire black suffrage movement was completely lost on them. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but if you can’t trace the similarities in the oppression and abuse I feel sorry for you.

    Just a thought, nothing more.

  43. Arie January 30, 2013

    I still think Frank took the easy way with that letter of his but it still does not take away from his talent It still saddens me that he has to use so many stunts to get noticed, does he not trust that his music and talent are good enough. Chris with all his flaws is a good singer and a brilliant entertainer just like Beyonce, MJ and James Brown. FYI I am not comparing the above mentioned I am only listing people that are considered entertainers. The comparison between these two men is unwarranted simply because they are in two different lanes. This generation needs to learn to appreciate talent without having to compare artists. I sincerely hope he will move away from this stunt driven promo otherwise he will find himself in an awkward position of having to dress up like Nicki Minaj for his next album cover.

  44. Yo Mammy January 30, 2013

    I’m glad that people are finally realizing just how mediocre and bland Frank’s music is. It’s nothing new.
