Odd Future member Frank Ocean may at first sound like some crazy hybrid of Trey Songz and Kid Cudi, but those comparisons will stop once you get through the first few tracks of nostalgia, ultra. Here’s the thing: this is a really good R&B album…there I said it. Frank Ocean is a singer who croons about his feelings, writes love songs, and in the process makes some quality music. The excellent songwriting and psychedelic production, combined with Ocean’s ear for beats and powerful voice make for a cohesive, melodically sophisticated concept album mixtape.

Frank Ocean Mixtape
Amazing and probably the best cd I could have ever bought. Only gripe I have is the songs that got removed like American Wedding and a couple of others but still great. I just wish The Eagles would come up off their crap and let the song get played cause its awesome and he performs it well. Plus they may would get some other stuff sampled if they would only accept the notoreity instead of griping like some old nursing home destined prudes.

Same as Joni
Beautiful, well-crafted music, full of Ocean's intuitive, creative, and emotional intelligence. I hardly ever feel this way about any contemporary artist, but I respect him high up there with Joni Mitchell. Frank Ocean will definitely keep going with his fine-assed artistry through the ages, and will become a genuine & true legend, just as Mitchell has.

Not very happy
I ordered this thinking it would come with the actual authentic cd case, but no it just came with the cd and ordinary blank cd case. I wasnt very happy. And when I transferred the songs onto itunes, the actual song titles werent listed but were called "track 01" and so on.

Like The cd
I didn't get the cover though. I wished i knew i was only buying the cd with no cover. So now you know. Still gonna keep it.

I like the album
Great CD. Not sure if the quality of the disc matters but it scratched fairly easily

What a talent!
Prince, Marvin Gaye, Joni Mitchell and Stevie Wonder are names that come to mind. And I really don't have to say any more!
