**💭 Thoughts:** Frank Ocean’s 2016 studio album *Blonde* is one of the most celebrated R&B albums of all time and is often recognized as one of the greatest albums ever released, regardless of genre. To be honest, I’ve never really seen what’s so special about this record. Sure, it achieves the atmospheric and emotional vibe it’s going for, but nothing really stands out to me other than a couple of tracks. **🎶 Tracklist Review** 1.) Nike🔵🥉 2.) Ivy 🔵🥈 3.)
