Years later, in 2011, Frank Ocean released a mixtape titled Nostalgia, ULTRA. His plan was to stay for a short period of time, however when he signed contracts into the music industry, Frank extended his stay. Later, Frank moved to LA to pursue his dreams in music.

In his younger years, Frank grew up in New Orleans and was shown jazz scenes and listened to his mother’s R&B CDs. His birth name, Christopher Edwin Breaux, was born on October 28, 1987, in Long Beach, California. You’ve probably heard of “Thinking Bout You” or “White Ferrari.” These, are in fact, by Frank Ocean. This is the cover of Frank Ocean’s album, Blonde.
