Review

"Channel Orange" by Frank Ocean really caught my attention back in 2012 with its refreshing blend of R&B, soul, and hip-hop that just can't be pigeonholed. The way Frank mixes in funk, electro-pop, and jazz-funk had me appreciating music in ways I hadn't expected. His voice is incredible, and it's given the perfect backdrop with the album’s production, which strikes a balance between full and minimalistic, and that's no easy feat!

The stories and themes Frank tackles in his songs—everything from the sweet pain of love to poignant social commentary—make it feel like you're watching a movie, but it's all happening in your ears. It's no wonder that critics were all about it, and when "Channel Orange" took home a Grammy, I wasn't surprised at all. Tracks like "Thinkin Bout You" and "Pyramids" are just timeless, and it's pretty clear that Frank Ocean didn't just make waves with this release—he changed the tides for artists everywhere. - Ava
