Frank Ocean's Channel Orange album #1on iTunes

Fresh off his first official television debut, recently opening up about his sexuality, and a number one album, singer-songwriter Frank Ocean certainly has a lot to be happy about right now.

Ocean performed his latest song "Bad Religion" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, following a special surprise that his new album, channel ORANGE, will be fully available online and on iTunes today, a week before it's original July 17th physical release date.

Ocean has received nothing but support from his family, friends and fans following his open letter regarding the details of his sexuality after rumors sparked due to the apparent lyrical content of his album said by some critics.

After posting a full stream of channel ORANGE via iTunes on his tumblr account, following song titles like "Pink Matter," "Bad Religion," "Super Rich Kids" and "Forrest Gump" appearing as some of the top trending topics within hours, "Channel Orange" has still not left the top five trending topics on Twitter as of now and the album is currently at number one on The iTunes Album Top 100 Chart. His management team joined in admiration tweeting how much they are "proud" of the singer.

Ocean begins his channel ORANGE tour July 13th later this week starting in Seattle, WA.

What are sum of your fav songs ONTD??

Yup.

Ikr? It's good he came out about this before his career actually started. Even though his original fans probably knew of his sexuality before on account of his past songs being about women AND men.

browniecakemix 10th-Jul-2012 03:45 pm (UTC)

lol actually before he released the letter all his fans were like "he writes songs from female perspectives okay IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING" so I doubt it

Slightly OT: Did anyone see Chelsea lately last night? Those pimple cunts were bashing his music and saying, "Who is he?!?!?" He's a singer-songwriter and game changer, his label is behind him, russell sim-monssssss, beyonce and jay-z, all these powerful ppl backing him bitch he bout blow up that's who he be!!! I almost threw my shoe at the TV, I was so upset ughhh!!!

YES. I could not believe the shit they were saying.

snappple 10th-Jul-2012 03:31 pm (UTC)

Chelsea has nerve coming after him like that, LOL didn't this bitch get her tv show from bending her ass to some executive from E! ?

I hate this bitch so fucking much.

we_eat_coldcuts 10th-Jul-2012 03:34 pm (UTC)

Yo, I'm not gonna front, I thought everyone and their mom knew about him at this point, but I think it's because I'm in this industry and have an awareness, because I was talking to some "normal" people who just listen to the radio and aren't internet addicts, and they have no idea who he is.

I don't think he has really made a blip on public consciousness quite yet, TBH.

setfire2failure 10th-Jul-2012 03:38 pm (UTC)

Not where I live, everyone knows who he is if they are socially aware and Internet friendly which 95 percent of young people are anyway. But I do agree, I don't think his career taken off as of yet.

lmao at chelsea calling someone else a nobody

prophecypro 10th-Jul-2012 04:40 pm (UTC)

Def Jam been sleeping at the wheel in terms of being behind him though. Even now it feels like he had to generate his own buzz without the label support.
