Mens vi venter på anmeldelserne af Frank Oceans “rigtige” nye album, kan vi altid lade hans største kritikere – kollegerne – vurdere det længeventede produkt.
De har nemlig været hurtige til at lovprise ‘Blonde’ på blandt andet Twitter.
Kanye West anmelder med et håndtegn.
…Frank album on repeat

I'll be by the pool listening to Frank Ocean eating an acai bowl and reading a book if anyone needs me..

Frank Ocean makes me feel like my senses have been dulled all my life and only now I'm experiencing things for the first time. #Blonde

Selv en af techverdenens mest prominente herrer viste sig at høre Frank Ocean, Twitters CEO Jack Dorsey.

Majoriteten af ros er rettet mod Frank Ocean selv, der velsagtens også har udløst et kollektivt lettelsens suk over den afsluttede ventetid alene. Men særligt én af albummets samarbejdspartnere får rosende ord med på vejen for sin medvirken på ‘Solo (Reprise)’.
when Andre 3000 is not releasing his 1 verse per year he travels the globe in a magical zepplin with a face on the side & the eyes light up
— DVS (@DVSblast) 21. august 2016
Andre 3000 is my lyrical idol wow wow wooooowwwwwww
— J (@JackJ) 21. august 2016
Andre 3000 drops one fire verse for the year
then goes backs home to sip herbal tea and watch jimi hendrix documentaries to piss us off.

We have "best rapper" debates weekly, and then twice a year Andre 3000 drops a verse and reminds us that we've wasted our time.
— the other one (@imfromraleigh) 21. august 2016
På verset lægger André 3000 også en slet skjult sviner til rappere med ghostwritere, som måske i virkeligheden er en strakt skråt op-finger i retning af Drake.
Andre 3000 just dissed Drake now he going to disappear another 3 years this man has the nerve..
— Fresh Prince (@DonxFigueroa_) 21. august 2016
Andre3000 dissing Drake on Frank Ocean's Blonde is like Jay Z stabbing Lance Rivera at the Q-Tip album release party.

"I'm so naive
I was under the impression that everyone wrote they own verses" – Andre 3000 pic.twitter.com/nRVX8VqxgG— XXL Magazine (@XXL) 21. august 2016
