MAGAZINE FAB: Frank Ocean GETS STYLISH For The December 2011 Issue Of "L’UOMO VOGUE"

Frank Ocean, one of the music industry's breakout talents off 2011, gets super stylish for the December 2011 issue of "L'Uomo Vogue." In the issue he addresses his fantastic year and writing style. Get the deets inside.....

In the December issue "L'Uomo Vogue" Frank Ocean, a member of the Odd Future collective, dishes on his writing technique and his fabulous career in the industry and what will change once he is president.

On being called an R&B artist:

“I’ll usually cringe at the R&B label. Because it’s like calling it urban…and what the fuck is urban music?”

On working with Kanye and Jay, as well as writing music for Beyoncé:

"Career-wise, this year feels like a montage scene in a movie."

On politics:

“My generation just doesn’t have the best taste in leadership. And weak leadership means little to no cohesion. If there’s no cohesion, there’s no real chance for effective protest or politics. Obviously, looking at Occupy Wall Street, there are a few in our bunch who still give a damn enough to rally and shout. This will change once I’m elected President.”

On changing his name from Christopher "Lonny" Breaux to Christopher Frank Ocean:

"It was like a middle finger to my slave name"

I love to here him sing

I love to here him sing "Sweet Jesus" on the "Watch the Throne" album.. It sounds soothing and compliments a mellow mood.. His high notes gives me chills.. Wonder if he has a strong New Orleans accent when he speak. I still love to here their French dialect..

I'm really feelin Frank Ocean

I'm really feelin Frank Ocean and everything he's putting out there and I appreciate that the fashion spread actually has a point of view. It suits Frank's personality. How many times have we seen black male celebrities in spreads for Uomo looking really out of place and uncomfortable? It makes the whole thing seem fake. Even though they're styled, these photos of Frank come off as natural.

Frank Oceans song writing is

Frank Oceans song writing is amazing...I'd fuck with him before I fuck with these other cats ( Trey SOngz, Chris Brown et al). His voice is also very melodious. I love Frank Ocean, cant wait for new music. The Weeknd is a close second as well

Frank Ocean voice reminds me

Frank Ocean voice reminds me of Nate Dogg,because it Not your Typical RB Voice Unconventional,But still Soulful and Moody.Just like Nate Dogg ,Frank is Better at singing Hooks for other Artist...I Don't think Frank could Carry a Whole album on his Own,My Opinion.

His art is so refreshing.

His art is so refreshing. Thank you Frank for bringing something innovative to the game. This man doesnt seem easily swayed by the glitz and fame but will definitely be in the hall in the long run. And he's hot :)

Every since I lost my baby,

Every since I lost my baby, I've had this black suit on..... I'm about to drive to the ocean, I'm a try to swim from something... bigger than me... kick off my shoes, and swim good swim goooood, take of this suit... and swim good swim gooood... I LOVE This dude. I like that more men are shedding the hard image, calming the f*ck down, talking about their emotions, love loss, hurt, life... yet still be MEN and be manly. I don't see him wearing any leggings EVER! LOL. And the difference between him and Drake is Drake caters too much to what women want to hear rather than just sharing how he truly feels uncensored and raw. Their is not enough balance there so he sounds like a simp sometimes. Whereas Frank Ocean just says what is on his mind and as a woman you feel it because it's not "game" it comes from his heart...

I must be old because I keep hearing this man's name but don't recall ever hearing any of his music. *shrugs*

Don't feel bad... he's not

Don't feel bad... he's not really that mainstream yet. You have to search for his music as opposed to hearing his songs on the radio 3 times in one hour. He has a vast collection of music available though.... you should google him, most of his music is free on websites like www.livemixtapes.com
