I'm afraid to have kids. ****** wearing dresses and getting multiple grammy's. ****** come out the closet and get grammy's and mtv awards. What kinda message is this sending to the fatherless black youth? Homosexual behavior will be rewarded why masculinity gets shunned?
How do you perform at the grammy's and the mtv awards without having a hit single? Black ppl ain't rocking with dude at all so if he doesn't have the urban market then is he a pop artist? I never seen this thread before so I can't answer ya question.
I agree that part of the appeal/intrigue with Frank Ocean is his semi-openness about his sexuality. And within that there might be some political motivations or whatever that is generating more attention/opportunities for him.
But you're gonna type on here fronting like channel orange isn't good at all?
You're gonna type on here fronting like you know what all black people are rocking to?

Frank ocean was ONE individual featured on the Grammys among several straight black men - The host LL Cool J, Jay Z, Wiz Khalifa, Chris Brown, The Dream, Nas etc. Yes, there are some gay black men on reality TV, so what? There are tons of straight black men on reality TV as well. Gay black men exist, get over it.
Frank ocean makes good music, people like him and admire the fact that he had the courage to come out when there are so many ignorant, immature people like you in the world. If you don't like the music then don't listen to it and stfu.
Frank Ocean was the only ***** at the grammy's to ever perform without a hit record. Show me 1 other ***** that was allowed to perform at the grammy's without a hit record and i'll admit I was wrong for making this thread.
So people weren't buzzing about his album before he came out? He wasn't on tracks with Jay and Kanye, in the studio with Nas and writing for Bieber and Beyonce before he came out?

Having one of the most critically acclaimed albums of the year? If you're nominated for Album of the Year, you perform, that's how it's always worked. He performed at the MTV Awards after having an album open up at #2 on the charts to critical acclaim. The album was out for 2 months before he performed there.
Thinking About You charted as high as 32, which was higher than Miranda Lambert's Over You which charted at 35. She performed that song tonight. Dierks Bentley performed a song that peaked at 44. Jack White performed 2 songs that never entered the Hot 100.

I never heard the Orange Channel album bruh. Most of the time the consumer get's inspired to purchase an album due to a hit single. Dude never had a hit single therefore I was never inspired to purchase the album. Him coming out the closet made me ignore all the rave reviews because I refuse to listen to a ***** sing to men for an hour.

Frank Ocean is a good writer.. But him being gay obviously makes him the poster child for the limo liberal agenda.. It was a brilliant move on his part to come out of the closest..He always has a tie breaker to separate him from regular ******..

So you've never even heard the album and admit it had rave reviews, but are questioning why he is performing at the Grammys
