Some people focus more on sonics. Some people focus more on story. I focus on both sonics and story.

More quotes by Frank Ocean
It's cool to be recognised by your peers.
Frank Ocean
Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.
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
It's about the stories. If I write 14 stories that I love, then the next step is to get the environment of music around it to best envelop the story and all kinds of sonic goodness.
Frank Ocean
As a man I am not a killer. I’m an artist and a modern person. I’ll choose sanity.
Frank Ocean
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
My TV ain't HD, that's too real
Frank Ocean
You just do what you can and you have as much fun as possible.
Frank Ocean
Don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is who I am, and my attitude depends on who you are.
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
I feel like I was writing as I was learning to talk. Writing was always a go-to form of communication.
Frank Ocean
Why see the world / when you got the beach?
Frank Ocean
As a writer, as a creator, I'm giving you my experiences. But just take what I give you. You ain't got to pry beyond that.
Frank Ocean
The first four and a half years was me in the studio every day, writing songs for other people. I had jobs, too - eleven jobs. I worked at Kinko's, Fatburger, Subway - I was a sandwich artist - and I was a claims processor at Allstate Insurance.
Frank Ocean
I've always wanted to make a career in the arts, and I think that my only hope at doing that is to make it more about the work.
Frank Ocean
Go for someone who is proud to have you.
Frank Ocean
A friend of mine jokes that I have a painstaking royalty complex. Like maybe I was a duke in a past life.
Frank Ocean
It's a bad religion to be in love with someone who could never love you.
Frank Ocean
If someone breaks your heart, just punch them in the face. Seriously. Punch them in the face and go get some ice cream.
Frank Ocean
I play piano every day. I enjoy that.
Frank Ocean
