Being singer/songwriter implies versatility and being able to create more than one medium, and R&B artist is a box, simple as that. It is 'that's what you do, that's what you are', and that's a little unfair, to me, because I don't just do that. So I like singer/songwriter because it allows me to move a little bit more freely.

Frank Ocean
I know that we sin but I do believe we try, we all try.
Frank Ocean
What do you think my brain is made for? Is it just a container for the mind? This great grey matter, Sensei replied what is your woman, Is she just a container for the child? That soft pink matter
Frank Ocean
With my art, it's the one thing that I know will outlive me and outlive my feelings. It will outlive my depressive seasons.
Frank Ocean
I don't ever want to be caught up in a system of thinking I can do one thing 'cos that's just... that's just telling yourself a lie.
Frank Ocean
Don't feel sad over someone who gave up on you, feel sorry for them because they gave up on someone who would have never given up on them.
