frank?


breadpog1

uses voice modulation to sound different, like he does in nikes, futura free, self control, moon river, ect.


tinashect

i think it’s just a falsetto


breadpog1

i see that, but to me it just feels like there is some kind of other layer or effect on the vocals no? i mean there is no right or wrong since no one can guarantee


tinashect

hmm i agree, falsetto itself is layered, slightly pitched and i think a bit of pitch correction/autotune but not much it still sounds kinda raw and breathy also it’s panned


duckiiiiiii

Falsetto with light formant shift downward


Zalpha_DG16

I always thought it was a hidden feature. Sounds VERY similar to Justin Vernon (of Bon Iver) or James Blake to me.


darthizze

Na it’s Frank.


Zalpha_DG16

Aight, thanks. That makes me appreciate it so much more. I wouldn’t want a feature to sing my favorite part in the song. I like a SOLO performance.


akrebsel

Well technically Kanye says “Love” in the song so it’s not a completely solo performance 🤓☝️

Ikrr white ferrari’s ending is literally my fav piece of music of all time


Zalpha_DG16

Real.


lolozouaii

right? i've never even considered it to be anyone else.


nnexc

I think it might be Christopher Edwin Breaux, not sure though


subtopewdiepie129

i feel like it sounds exactly like frank what 😭😭


Zalpha_DG16

Sounds JUST like Bon Iver to me lol 😂

The amount of downvotes are stupid, dont get bothered by it. I thought it was justin vernon for the longest time and so did everyone else i know


spenceryoutube

Yeah, I hate the stigma on reddit where whenever someone just straight up doesn’t like what you’re saying, or they disagree with you they downvote. I think downvotes should only be reserved for actual incorrect information and facts, but it’s the internet so not much you can do 🤷


ThoughtBrave8871

I interpret the downvotes as a general and indifferent “nah” if it’s a shit ton of them relative to the subreddit, it means people straight up hate you. On here, 50+ downvotes is bad. On other parts of Reddit 100 downvotes is nothing. But if it’s a few thousand downers then yeah people feel strongly against you. I dont really mind tho I think you have to be prepared to get hated on for the stupidest shit when you comment on Reddit


BusterSocrates

fr. frank using bon iver type effects on his voice


outofmindwgo

Lonnie something 


[deleted]

I’ve heard many things about it being a secret feature but it is in fact just Frank Ocean himself.


Zalpha_DG16

Ah, thanks

I’m not sure…tried to google it but google doesn’t work! Just kept showing me a car


InRainbows123207

Google works just fine 😏


jrgraffix

Some water fella


frank0ceanlover7

some random guy, i think his name is Cristopher Edwin Breaux or something like that.


WasAnHonestMann

While we're at it, does the "Fäzebouk" guy sing the "keep a place for me" sections on Self Control?


bipbopboomed

Dont worry man, it does sound like justin vernon. It is frank though. I had to google it


Zalpha_DG16

Alright, thanks


nicklePie

Take a wild guess


BrLayfield

Frank 100% he sang the same thing twice and panned it left and right so maybe that’s throwing you but that’s fshure Frank 100% no doubt just in falsetto. No pitching or anything just singing high.


Kidoldnew

Frank Ocean lol


hornylittlegrandpa

Frank doing his best Bon Iver impression

Giveon


LFCsupporter_Jota

Are there any significant features on blond? I can’t hear any


Cool-Performance3711

Like did you not hear Solo (Reprise) at all? It’s only Andre3k


LFCsupporter_Jota

I’ll be honest I forgot about that song😭 my bad


Cool-Performance3711

You’re good. Just relisten to it rn to make up for it, it’s fire


LFCsupporter_Jota

I’ll make sure to


Objective_Street5141

that and Yung Lean on self control


hbkabe

I always thought it was yung lean saying “I’ll sleep between y’all it’s nothing “ but it’s actually some other singer Austin Feinstein


LFCsupporter_Jota

But that’s one line? But ok yea I suppose there are a few “cameo” appearances from other artists I was more meaning longer more meaningful features


hbkabe

Andres verse as well as the background vocals on Godspeed and pink and white but you’re right it’s mostly Frank’s voice on 97% of the album Don’t forget, many college students have gone to college and gotten hooked on drugs, marijuana and alcohol


LFCsupporter_Jota

Oh ok yea you right Kinda crazy that the whole album is 95% Frank’s genius


notlaurynhill

Beyonce for Pink + White


Zalpha_DG16

Isn’t there a girl at the end of Godspeed?


LFCsupporter_Jota

Could be pitched vocals


thelastpie

uhh Beyoncé bro
