It's HOT. If I go outside I pretty much melt into a freaking puddle. So, I've been holed up under the AC (bliss & very grateful for it right now!) to work, occasionally checking out to chill and listen to one of my all-time favourite albums, Frank Ocean's Channel Orange. It was love-at-first-listen and continues to enthral—that voice!—with his compelling lyrical storytelling.

Ocean once said :  “[Storytelling’s] the more interesting part about making music for me, or making albums and songs and stuff. So much so that I might not make another album. I might just write a novel next.”

That was before the drop of Blonde and Endless. I love the idea of him writing a novel! And hopefully, more music.
