The debut album from Frank Ocean has leaked as a Mediafire, Rapidgator and Sharebeast download. The guy has been surrounded with a lot of controversy since his blog post, talking about his sexuality. But really, who cares about that? This album is the thing which matters and it hit the internet yesterday night during Jimmy Fallon. Enjoy this fine download.
I’m pretty disappointed. Nostalgia, Ultra was pretty near AOTY for me; this is just an unfocused mess. 2/3 of the album sounds like an extended interlude. Thinking of You, Lost, and Forrest Gump are the only notable tracks in my opinion.
I’ve often found myself confused as to how Nostalgia, Ultra became so highly regarded. Swim Good and Novacaine are really the only standout songs on there and practically everything else was just him singing over a well known instrumental. What was good on that mixtape was really good but there was no way I could have listened to that mixtape and had enough original material to be able to reach a fair assessment of his potential.

I think nostalgia was just showcasing his talent and songwriting. CO is where he tries to create his own vibe with his production selection, he seems to be more adventurous/outgoing with his lyrical content on a few songs on this album, like his coming-of-age.
I only finished my first listen through on this but the production is incredibly tight, smooth, and not overbearing and he’s exploring a lot of interesting themes lyrically. I feel that it’ll only get better with repeat listens.
If you find the link broken, you can simply Google “frank ocean nostalgia ultra download” and find a wealth of backup locations. This is a great love song collection that rivals any slow jam artist out there with tastes of that off-kilter Bilal bizarrity at sporadic points all broken up with the sound of a cassette tape player being stopped.
Thanks to everyone who has already visited this baby blog, but thanks in particular to those who have commented, emailed, liked etc. And thank you to those who have asked where you can find “Nostalgia Ultra”, the album referred to in our earlier blog here.
Well, at the time of writing, go here to find a nice easy zipped download courtesy of the friendly folks of Get Right Music.
For the law-abiders among you, don’t worry – this is all legal (well, we think so, we don’t yet employ an in-house lawyer here at Pop Lifer) – Frank Ocean himself put this album out for free last year as a result of frustration at his record label’s refusal to promote it.
Lord knows what they were thinking. While “Nostalgia Ultra” isn’t as fully realised, fully rounded and fully beautiful as “Channel Orange”, it’s still one of last year’s five best albums.
What with recent revelations, you might think “Songs For Women” – probably the catchiest song on board – was something of a red herring, but given the general mischief at work in the lyric, you can’t help but wonder if Ocean knew this song was one day going to be greeted wryly. Similarly, on first listen, 50-Cent favourite “Novocane” might sound like typical rap bragging – “Superhuman, even when i’m fucking” could be the abhorrent Chris Brown – until you hear the desperation and melancholy underpinning it: “I can’t feel, can’t feel a thing.”
More typical of Ocean are the slower and more reflective songs. “Strawberry Swing” samples Coldplay and is a gorgeous, shimmering and gentle meditation on childhood, while the brooding, organ-driven”Swim Good” finds Ocean heartbroken and driving out to the sea – maybe never to come back. And on “There Will Be Tears” Ocean reflects on his briefly known and departed grandfather to gorgeous effect. His honesty and vulnerability were there all along.

“We All Try” is the purest pop number, and should by all rights have been a global number one. On it Ocean sings of sin (“I don’t believe my hands are cleanly”) and sadness (“Can’t believe you would let me touch your heart”) but ends on a note of ringing positivity: “I just don’t believe we’re wicked/ I know that we sin, but I do believe we try.” It’s a sort of soul “Everybody Hurts” and gives the clearest indication of just what Ocean would achieve on “Channel Orange”.
