What’s Frank Ocean up to?

Frank Ocean attends the Costume Institute Gala for the “Punk: Chaos to Couture” exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 6, 2013, in New York City.

Additionally, Reddit users point out that the site’s source code has been updated with the image above plus a Boys Don’t Cry graphic and mention of Kanye West designer David Baker.

A music loop started playing and someone (Frank?) walked across the shot and began doing what appears to be some carpentry work.

As a tease (and maybe a clue), Ocean uploaded a live stream on his website of him cutting wood in a hallway full of workbenches.

The singer, who previously hinted at a July 2016 release date for the project, appears to have launched a live stream in collaboration with Apple Music. He’s long planned to release a paper-and-ink magazine and write a novel. Numerous music snippets that played during the video featured non-electronic orchestration-aching and lovely woodwinds and strings-though there were also trip-hoppy beats and one mini-song with distorted, looping vocals. So, fans weren’t surprised that Ocean’s album didn’t drop by the 31st. Ocean rose to prominence in 2011 with his mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra. His last solo LP came in 2012 with the magnificent Channel Orange. His solo debut earned six Grammy nominations, but the artist only took home the award for Best Contemporary Urban Album. It was a revelation that rendered the album’s love songs even more affecting and helped to make music a more progressive space.
