The most amazing part? This is just one of two consensus frenzies (confrenzuses?) Frank Ocean is currently commanding, because his album Channel Orange is so bonkers-amazing that no one knows what to do with themselves. The kind that warms hearts, raises goosebumps, and makes you feel like the world is headed in the right direction. The kind in which people are falling over one another to join an entirely righteous consensus. The courage he’s shown in the face of homophobia has created that rare good kind of Internet shitstorm. Praise for his July 3 coming-out Tumblr post has been rolling in ever since, from music critics, from Russell Simmons, from Ebony… nearly every corner of the Internet. While most Americans were celebrating our nation’s independence by grilling food, drinking beer and igniting small explosives, Frank Ocean was busy celebrating his own kind of independence. By now, I hope someone in your social media feed of choice has freaked out about how incredible Frank Ocean’s album Channel Orange is.
