Aug 18, 2023It is a solid album, it is not lost or even diminished in its magnitude, it manages to be at a high level during the 17 songs that make up its tracklist

Mar 15, 2023Blonde is the perfect album in every way, melancholic, narrative, deep and with a production that connects with its fans.
-
Mar 5, 2023This album is special. Each and every song on here has a meaning behind it.
The production on here is extremely unique and different, and definitely takes some extra listening to get used to. The vocals on here by Frank Ocean are perfect. You can hear the emotion and sadness in his voice. Frank's vocals in White Ferrari, Seigfried, and Godspeed always make me tear up a bit. -
Jan 26, 2023FrankOcean made the best one of albums of 10s,which changed my view of music.

Jan 9, 2023sounds are cool and very emotion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jan 8, 2023A very wavy produced simple piece of love, loss, heartbreak. It is like feeling summer and cold at the same time. Those simple tunes give the most complex emotions to somebody who is either with/not with or moving on from you. Its different and relatable for everyone. Man named an album "Boys don't cry" and then not just boys everybody cried. No way to hate this bruh Love ain't funny.....

Nov 29, 2022The only saddest thing about this album is that I listened to it before Channel Orange. The best album of our time.

Sep 26, 2022since the first time I heard this, my perception of music has changed

Aug 20, 2022perfect album, its sounds good for an album like this. Frank is so smart and reunite the perfect tracks to make a project
-
Aug 7, 2022Awesome, had so many fillers which did add to the album a LOT but they were kinda ehh boring
-
May 2, 2022For some reason, I didn't get much enjoyment from this album at first. And while i still prefer Frank's 2012 project Channel Orange, This album grew on me a lot. If you find yourself unsure about this album at first, listen to nights one more time. That's what made me realize the genius of this project.

Jan 10, 2022How could you possibly say this is the greatest album of all time and it doesn't feature a single drum beat of any kind? Overrated
-
Jan 9, 2022first half: minimalist / second half: experimental, the album in one word: nostalgic. some skits and the last track weren't necessary
best tracks: White Ferrari and Self Control
worst tracks: Futura Free or Close To You

Oct 26, 2021So beautiful. Not your generic sad pop album, the beats are so luscious and futuristic that I just love every aspect of the album. Incredible.
-
Sep 15, 2021Listening to this album in the comfort of your bed before going to sleep is the best gift you can give to yourself. ITS A MASTERPIECE. I feel like Frank collected all the sweetest melodies in the world and put it in this album.
-
Sep 6, 2021Blonde is one of the greatest Pop album ever made. Frank Ocean is easily > The Weeknd. This album saved a generation.

Aug 31, 2021Blonde has insanely good singing from Frank, the drumless songs are super good, when there are drummy beats, it also hits, production overall is really good with soft and gentle instruments, that goes really well with Frank's voice, which just stuns me, a must listen!
-
Aug 29, 2021Do you want to drift off into a completely different world, but don't know how to do it? Turn on "Blonde" and it happens. What can I say. It's recently been 5 years since its release. Almost every night I listen to "Nights" to calm down, but also to "Self Control" to reflect on life.
-
May 22, 2021one of the greatest albums of all time, a true masterpiece and MY favorite album

The WireNov 8, 2016The sum is Ocean’s most thorough reading of his world to date. [Oct 2016, p.65]
-
MagnetOct 18, 2016This is an album of mostly beatless soul whose heart nevertheless pumps vividly and loudly throughout its 17 tracks. [No. 136, p.61]

Oct 5, 2016This is music that fascinates on first listen but requires multiple spins for its complexities and idiosyncrasies to take hold.
