Frank Ocean’s ‘Channel Orange’ Released

Frank Ocean owns July. After announcing less than a month ago that he would be releasing his debut album Channel Orange July 17th, he let loose a duo of songs which built the hype for the album. Then came his tremendous letter last week, which shook the hip hop world and beyond. Then, this afternoon came the news that on his first ever performance on national television, on Jimmy Fallon, he would announce the early release of his album. A couple hours later, we’ve been blessed with the complete album, available on Itunes, and available to stream on his Tumblr. The physical copies will come out next Tuesday. Watch his performance of “Bad Religion”, with help from The Roots, from earlier this evening. An album review will be coming soon. Enjoy.
