California collective Odd Future might be making waves in the hip-hop world, but they’ve got a smooth-singing secret weapon. Frank Ocean, the gang’s resident R&B crooner, recently released his mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra, giving the world a taste of the group’s answer to Young Money’s Drake. On the standout cut “Songs for Women,” the singer-songwriter, who’s written for Brandy and Justin Bieber, sings about making music exclusively to nab the ladies. Get acquainted with the West Coast’s rising star.
Nobody sings anymore. Even “love songs” arent real love songs. I’d rather these idiots copy Stevie Wonder or other classic artists than the current bs out now.

The world doesn’t need another Drake; the one we have is devoid of worth and significance.
