Frank Ocean fans have been sent into a frenzy, after news broke that the Channel Orange's long-awaited new album Boys Don't Cry will be released this Friday.
It's been four years of patience, rumours and hear say since Orange dropped his universally-acclaimed and game-changing debut album, Channel Orange.
Now, according to The New York Times, his sophomore record Boys Don't Cry will be released exclusively via Apple Muic on Friday 5 August. 'Sources' also claim it will come accompanied by a video and publication.
This comes after Ocean launched a teaser video on his website yesterday, and the album was rumoured for release at this exact time last year - which is a little suspicious.
Naturally, fans are mixture of optimistic, overjoyed and dubious:
Praying Frank Ocean and Bryson Tiller can successfully being back good quality R&B

Ditching Spotify for Apple Music so I can listen to Frank Ocean's new album, providing it actually comes out on Friday 😁
