Frank Ocean is the singer from OFWGKTA (Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them  All) a new hip hop collective that is extremely experimental but still  feature the vintage hip hop taste we all love. Good flow and metaphors  etc...
Frank Ocean however, is on a different level. The singer-songwriter has  been signed to Def Jam and apparently wrote songs for Justin Bieber (?!)  along with a number of different artists but after being ignored a  number of times joined the OFWGKTA. It's took him around two years to  finally establish himself and create his own EP - Nostalgia, Ultra.
He has a vast array of influences that range from Coldplay, MGMT and  Radiohead - and refuses to pigeon-hole himself to a single genre of  music. Following his uprising he has begun to work with Nas on his new  album and worked with Pharrell Williams.
After hearing his EP I expect nothing other than big things from him,  catchy beats with complex (and obviously well thought) lyrics. Amazing  talent like this can be slept on.
