Overrated. Can't sing at all. Chanal Attention W**re would be a non-factor if it wasn't for his convenient coming out message. He's always so thirsty for attention. You'll never be Lauryn Hill, get over it HONEY boo BOO.

I can't with these attention *****s.

US album sales: @frank_ocean, Channel Orange 8,551 (404,884 total).

400K.

Hopefully he wins a few at the Grammy's so his sales go up

[Munich]

I just refuse to believe that Frank would let his album die like that

I believe he has some things in store next year to really help the sales, I don't think he's going to just let the era go away with so many single choices left.

I just realized this Blind Item from June was about Frank:

There’s been plenty of speculation about this hot young r&b star’s sexuality, but most of it has been drowned out by the adoration by fans and famous alike. After keeping folks guessing in 2011, this soul singer will answer any questions about which team he’s swinging for with his upcoming musical release.

Sorry, but the only other hint we can give is he had at least one big rap collabo last year.

[iamvladd]

Wow I've never realized how many Best of 2012 lists he topped.
