Each individual's success as a solo artist is pretty much a win for the whole team.

A friend of mine jokes that I have a painstaking royalty complex. Like maybe I was a duke in a past life.

In art, at a certain level, there is no 'better than.' It's just about trying to operate for yourself on the most supreme level, artistically, that you can and hoping that people get it.

Go for someone who is proud to have you.
Frank Ocean

I don't know if I ever told you this before, but you're the only one I ever waited for this long.
Frank Ocean
Image
It's not always easy to be transparent about your emotions and sometimes the music can get heavy.
Frank Ocean

As a man I am not a killer. I’m an artist and a modern person. I’ll choose sanity.
Frank Ocean
Image
I don't have any secrets I need kept any more.

Why see the world / when you got the beach?
Frank Ocean
Image
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.

I feel like I was writing as I was learning to talk. Writing was always a go-to form of communication.
