Frank Ocean is moving onto pastures new.

Indeed, before the release of his sophomore LP, the ‘Swim Good’ performer has reportedly cut his management team and PR company loose, kicking them to the curb this Spring.

Full story below…

Buzz Feed reveals exclusively:

Ocean, who rose to prominence as a member of L.A.’s anarchic rap collective Odd Future in 2011, had been managed by the group’s de facto godparents Christian and Kelly Clancy since 2010. But earlier this spring he surprised the couple, who also manage Tyler, the Creator, Solange Knowles, and Mac Miller, by informing them he would be taking his career in a different direction. A new manager has not yet been named, according to a source close to Ocean.

The publicist, Brooklyn- and L.A.-based agency Life or Death PR (which also represents Odd Future), has also been let go. In its place, Ocean has hired Hollywood agency ID PR, whose clients include artists Alicia Keys and Paul Simon as well as movie stars like Jennifer Lawrence and Sean Penn. (In an unofficial swap, former ID client Mac Miller was recently acquired by Life or Death.

News of his shock move comes two years after the performer revealed,via an open letter, that he had been romantically linked to a male friend before rising to global notoriety, and months after he joined Beyonce in celebrating the release of ‘Super Power‘, their ‘Beyonce’-pulled duet.
