    Both frank and the way you broke down the lyrics literally inspired me to change up the way I write my songs.

    Just realized that Frank was staring at the Ocean in swim good haha. It’s the subtle details that make me love his artistry.

    I love your clear analysis of the lyrics and emotional depth of it. I’ve been SEARCHING for videos like this as opposed to the broad explanations that are usually available where barely anything about the song is actually explained. Thank for you this. I sincerely hope that you make more videos like this for us all as a gift. I feel like I’m in English class again. Except it’s about the music I enjoy and appreciate the most. Bottom line. Please make more Frank ocean song analyses considering he’s so complex and I’m sure people would love to get a better angle at his work too!

    It’s poetic lines over a beat. Just sway away from saying basic lines or basic melodies.

    You made a great point with your discussion regarding Ocean's humility. This idea has affected me, and will likely affect a few ways in which I perceive not only myself, but my general output to the world around me. Idk about how specfic you. are about th lyrics though. I want to hear more about what you think! keep at it. great vid

    “Honestly, the song could’ve ended here and I’d still consider it to be a masterpiece of songwriting. It’s fucking great.” 🥹
