    Sorry.. I’m a fan- but his performance was anything but pitch perfect. It was like he couldn’t hear himself. Definitely an off night

  • WEJ

    • jef

  • Delonte

    Pitch perfect….ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING? That was the single worst performance of the dumbest song America has ever seen. PERIOD.

    Is Frank Ocean Autistic or something? Why was this such an amazing performance for him?

    Another sign of the apocalypse. Behold, the future of music….”Now, I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.”

    Vocals weren’t as pitchy as I initially thought last night. Good performance Frank.

  • Riggs

    He sounds amazing. Anyone who says otherwise doesn’t know music. and thats the damn truth. Frank Ocean has to be one of the best live voices in this era of music. Check out his performances of Thinkin Bout You and Pyramids on SNL.

    Really off-key and the worse song i have ever heard, and what’s with the whistling?
    Terrible performance.

    perfect

    I loved him from start before his popularity, but this performance to me was boring, i wish he could have done it a different way.

    Man this guy exemplifies the death of “music”.Thank the jews of Hollywood for building up fuckers like this.

    Ugh, that was terrible. I watched it a second time to convince myself. Yep, just as bad, maybe worse the second time. I don’t think Frank Ocean quite has the concept of “song” down. What were the Grammy directors thinking when they put this horrible dreck on the air? And the whisling, OH MY GOD, that was awful and pitch-poor. Was he not able to hear himself?
