Frank Ocean “might not make another album”
The man behind one of our favourite records of 2012, Frank Ocean has said he may not record another album.
The R&B singer spoke to The Guardian about his upcoming plans, and revealed that music may be put on the back-burner.
Ocean told the newspaper:
“The storytelling part of it is the most interesting and challenging part of the whole process for me. … So much so that I might not make another album. I might just write a novel next. I don’t know!
It could be . It could be it, if I flew next week and my plane crashed! It could be it if somebody walked along and shot me for my bracelet or something. It could always be it. The idea of recognising your strengths and using them in as versatile a way as you can is cool to me. I don’t ever want to be caught up in a system of thinking I can do one thing cos that’s just … that’s just telling yourself a lie. But I do like to sing. I play piano every day. I enjoy that.”
Channel Orange, the musician’s debut album, came out earlier this year to rave reviews.
