Frank Ocean

A report from weekend one of Coachella.

Head to head: Frank Ocean has released a solid gold, diamond-encrusted cock ring for his luxury brand, Homer. A bit of fun or a little on the heavy side? THE FACE debates.

The LA-via-London producer reveals how a depressive episode, like-minded musicians and an ominous tarot card inspired his EP, Like a Good Old Friend.

Frank Ocean got his first taste of the music industry as a songwriter in the latter half of the ’00s. Collaborators detail first impressions of a young Lonny Breaux, his studio ethic and eventual rise to worldwide success.

The south London House of Pharaohs member is flying solo with his debut mixtape Sorry You Were Saying.
