READ Frank Ocean's Emotional Response to the Orlando Tragedy

I read in the paper that my brothers are being thrown from rooftops blindfolded with their hands tied behind their backs for violating sharia law. I heard the crowds stone these fallen men if they move after they hit the ground. I heard it’s in the name of God. I heard my pastor speak for God too, quoting scripture from his book. Words like abomination popped off my skin like hot grease as he went on to describe a lake of fire that God wanted me in. I heard on the news that the aftermath of a hate crime left piles of bodies on a dance floor this month. I heard the gunman feigned dead among all the people he killed. I heard the news say he was one of us. I was six years old when I heard my dad call our transgender waitress a faggot as he dragged me out a neighborhood diner saying we wouldn’t be served because she was dirty. That was the last afternoon I saw my father and the first time I heard that word, I think, although it wouldn’t shock me if it wasn’t. Many hate us and wish we didn’t exist. Many are annoyed by our wanting to be married like everyone else or use the correct restroom like everyone else. Many don’t see anything wrong with passing down the same old values that send thousands of kids into suicidal depression each year. So we say pride and we express love for who and what we are. Because who else will in earnest? I daydream on the idea that maybe all this barbarism and all these transgressions against ourselves is an equal and opposite reaction to something better happening in this world, some great swelling wave of openness and wakefulness out here. Reality by comparison looks grey, as in neither black nor white but also bleak. We are all God’s children, I heard. I left my siblings out of it and spoke with my maker directly and I think he sounds a lot like myself. If I being myself were more awesome at being detached from my own story in a way I being myself never could be. I wanna know what others hear, I’m scared to know but I wanna know what everyone hears when they talk to God. Do the insane hear the voice distorted? Do the indoctrinated hear another voice entirely?

Did Adele Read Chris Brown over his 'Sore Loser' Attitude?

Apparently, Adele gave Chris Brown a piece of her mind after he stayed seated during Frank Ocean's Grammy win.

The British superstar appeared to go on the attack and unleash a verbal torrent at Rihanna’s rekindled lover after he lost his manners when his rival Frank Ocean beat him to a prize at the Grammys. 

Cameras failed to pick up what the Skyfall singer was saying to Brown but captured her fronting up to him and barking at him.
Brown looked like he’d met his match when he appealed to the seven time Grammy winner during the exchange. 

The 24-year-old made her move after Brown failed to rise to his feet with the rest of the crowd when Frank Ocean beat him to the best urban contemporary album gong.
Cameras captured the Turn Up The Music singer sulking in his chair before he was confronted by the bolshie songstress.

I really want to know what was said.

Chris Brown serves 'Sore Loser' Realness at Frank Ocean

Last night, Frank Ocean beat Chris Brown for the Best Urban Contemporary Album award at the Grammys. Watch as Chris keeps his raggedy ass in his seat while everyone stood up.

Frank Ocean wants Peace with Chris Brown

Frank Ocean wants to put the drama with Chris Brown behind him.

On his Tumblr page he said:

AS A CHILD I THOUGHT IF SOMEONE JUMPED ME IT WOULD RESULT IN ME MURDERING OR MUTILATING A MAN. BUT AS A MAN I AM NOT A KILLER. I’M AN ARTIST AND A MODERN PERSON. I’LL CHOOSE SANITY. NO CRIMINAL CHARGES. NO CIVIL LAWSUIT. FORGIVENESS, ALBEIT DIFFICULT, IS WISDOM. PEACE, ALBEIT TRITE, IS WHAT I WANT IN MY SHORT LIFE. PEACE.

I guess Frank proves he's the bigger man in all of this.

Frank Ocean wants to press charges on Chris Brown

The story continues to unfold.

Frank Ocean has already talked with the police and is "desirous of prosecution in this incident,"
 according to a Los Angeles County Sheriff's office. Chris Brown has brought in his lawyer, Mark Geragos to help sort out this mess.

MTV reports

Unnamed sources told the site that Geragos' team have a surveillance tape of the end of the scuffle that shows that Brown did not throw any punches. TMZ reported that the tape also clears Ocean, who does not appear to throw punches either. The fighting appears to be between the singer's respective crews. The video, however, only captures the end of the fight and is not conclusive, because it started in the parking lot of a Los Angeles recording studio where there were no cameras.

The altercation ended up in the lobby of the studio, where it was caught on camera. TMZ said Brown's account is "radically different" from that of an unnamed witness who claimed that the singer threw the first punch. That witness told TMZ that Brown started the fight after Ocean dissed him in front of his crew and refused to shake Breezy's hand. The source added that Frank laughed at the dis, while Brown was so angered he "coldcocked Ocean and started an all-out war."

Once the fight moved to the lobby, sources said it demolished the studio, as the brawlers "managed to break almost everything in the room and scare all of the staff members" before the receptionist called 911. The Sheriff's spokesman said officials do not believe the incident rises to the level of an assault and could just be a "minor scuffle over a parking spot."

 This is getting serious.

Chris Brown physically assaults Frank Ocean

Another reason to lock Chris Brown in a tin box and ship to a war zone planet.

This past weekend, he attacked Frank Ocean! He and a couple of other goons attacked Frank in a WeHo parking lot.

Us Weekly has the scoop

Another day, another violent feud for Chris Brown. The 23-year-old has been accused of physically assaulting fellow R&B star Frank Ocean at a West Hollywood parking lot on Sunday Jan. 28. A report from the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department confirms that "Chris Brown and the victim were involved in an altercation over a parking space. The altercation allegedly led to Chris Brown punching the victim," with Brown and Ocean's respective entourages being separated after a brief tussle.

Although the LASD does not mention the Grammy-nominated Ocean by name, he tweeted about the incident himself. "got jumped by chris and a couple guys. lol," Ocean, 24, wrote. "cut my finger now I can't play w two hands at the grammys."

This is ridic! And I want to know why and what happened. To be real, I wonder if Chris' self-hatred was catalyst for this fight.

God, I really don't like Chris Brown.

Frank Ocean talks about Coming Out in GQ

Frank Ocean gets personal in his GQ interview.

On posting his letter to Tumblr: 

The night I posted it, I cried like a fucking baby. It was like all the frequency just clicked to a change in my head. All the receptors were now receiving a different signal, and I was happy. I hadn't been happy in so long. I've been sad again since, but it's a totally different take on sad. There's just some magic in truth and honesty and openness.

On coming out and worries about if it would hurt his career:

I had those fears. In black music, we’ve got so many leaps and bounds to make with acceptance and tolerance in regard to that issue. It reflects something just ingrained, you know. When I was growing up, there was nobody in my family—not even my mother—who I could look to and be like, 'I know you’ve never said anything homophobic.' So, you know, you worry about people in the business who you’ve heard talk that way.

Interesting Quote: Frank Ocean

"I knew that I was writing in a way that people would ask questions. I knew that my star was rising, and I knew that if I waited I would always have somebody that I respected be able to encourage me to wait longer, to not say it till who knows when. People are just afraid of things too much … Sure, evil exists, extremism exists,” he continued. “Somebody could commit a hate crime and hurt me. But they could do the same just because I'm black. They could do the same just because I'm American."

Chris Brown disses Frank Ocean

Chris Brown continues to be a nuisance and mess. Just recently, when he was in Cannes, a reporter asked the fallen star about Frank Ocean and his coming out.

What did Chris Brown say? He responded with this: “Man, no homo!”.

If you didn't know, the phrase “no homo” basically mean to reject or denounce anything that LGBT.

According to PRLOG, there's been drama between the two before:

Brown has had run-ins with Ocean before, in 2011 the two exchange hate tweets that eventually erupted into Brown sending family members to attack Frank Ocean. Brown also has a long history of homophobia and is known for making homophobic statements in the past.

I guess Chris is mad because Frank is outselling him and getting more attention.

Beyonce shows some Love to Frank Ocean

On Beyonce's official website, she post a pic of Frank with some encouraging words. She has worked with him on a few tracks and it's rumored that they are working a few for her future album.

Interesting Quote: Chuck D

"I commend Frank Ocean for coming out and saying it, but it's not a first because there's plenty of black male gay singers. Even when they don't admit it, you kind of know. If you heard somebody like… I don't want to say a name, because people will talk… but like somebody in the Wu-Tang Clan or something, if they came out then that would be groundbreaking. That would be totally challenging."
