      He didn't submit the album for Grammy nomination, as the year prior he felt Kendrick should have gotten album of the year and there's a lot of politics when it comes to the Grammys. I agree and disagree w/ those sentiments, but I also recall Outkast winning album of the year w/ 'Speakerboxx / The Love Below'. ::Shrugs::

      He is a Kpop idol, he's a member of a boygroup called NCT and he was making a video about what he's doing at the time when he is off work. He played this song and said it's one of his favourites ever. So people came here to listen I guess... :D

    I just realized this song tells the story of some guy that dropped acid in Colorado and met his babymama. Then his regret of meeting her and wished he just smoked solo that night.

    • @yairasevilla7456
      @yairasevilla7456 4 ปีที่แล้ว +232

      “White leaf on my boxers, green leaf turn to vapors for the low”
      He’s rolling a joint in his boxers
      “And that mean cheap, 'cause ain't shit free and I know it”
      I might sound crazy but I think he’s talking about a joint costing less than child support and you’ll see why
      “Even love ain't, 'cause this nut cost, that clinic killed my soul
      But you gotta hit the pussy raw though”
      He came inside the girl he met in Colorado raw, and went to a pregnancy clinic and said she was pregnant which killed his soul.
      “Now your baby momma ain't so vicious
      All she want is her picket fence
      And you protest and you picket sign
      But them courts won't side with you
      Won't let you fly solo”
      He wants to be left alone. He doesn’t want to keep fighting with his baby momma, but she’s making it hard for him cause she wants to have her all perfect family but he doesn’t.
      “I wanted that act right in Colorado that night
      I brought trees to blow through, but it's just me and no you
      Stayed up 'til my phone died, smoking big, rolling solo”
      Instead now he wanted to act right (no acid) in Colorado that night, blowing trees without her, enjoying his time solo.
      Thats from the second verse. The first verse talks about that night he connected with her.

    Hand me a towel, I'm dirty dancing by myself
    Gone off tabs of that acid
    Form me a circle, watch my Jagger
    Might lose my jacket and hit a solo
    One time
    We too loud in public then police turned down the function
    Now we outside and the timing's perfect
    Forgot to tell you, gotta tell you how much I vibe with you
    And we don't gotta be solo
    Now stay away from highways
    My eyes like them red lights
    Right now I prefer yellow
    Redbone, so mellow
    Fuck 'round, be cutting you
    Think we were better off solo
    I got that act right in the Windy city that night
    No trees to blow through
    But blow me and I owe you
    Two grams when the sun rise
    Smoking good, rolling solo
    Solo (solo)
    Solo (solo)
    S-solo (solo)
    S-solo (solo)
    It's hell on Earth and the city's on fire
    Inhale, in hell there's heaven
    There's a bull and a matador dueling in the sky
    Inhale, in hell there's heaven
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Solo, solo
    Solo, solo
    I'm skipping showers and switching socks, sleeping good and long
    Bones feeling dense as fuck, wish a nigga would cross
    And catch a solo, on time
    White leaf on my boxers, green leaf turn to vapors for the low
    And that mean cheap, cause ain't shit free and I know it
    Even love ain't, 'cause this nut cost, that clinic killed my soul
    But you gotta hit the pussy raw though
    Now your baby momma ain't so vicious, all she want is her picket fence
    And you protest and you picket sign, but them courts won't side with you

    This track came out the same time I was leaving the Gold Coast- and as a result makes me think of the few years I spent living there while moonlighting as an Uber driver. The "together/ alone", bittersweet feel of this entire track- with its' constant flashbacks to crazy nights past- sums up life there perfectly. You could spend every day, every week surrounded by the crowds amidst the noise, the action, the partying and caught up in the goings-on and the fun to be had...but you could be gone the next day and barely a person would notice. You could find yourself solo, and all the crazy times and people you met would exist only as vivid flashbacks because they all have their individual life stories to return to, quite possibly forever. In some ways there's a real sense of freedom to the realisation- but in other ways it's rather sobering...and somehow, Frank manages to capture all of these contrasting feelings in a simple, understated, 4 minute track...
    If you spend enough time on the GC, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about...
    For those of you from the States? Picture Las Vegas with Florida's beaches and you'll get what I mean...

    [Verse 1]
    Hand me a towel, I'm dirty dancing by myself
    Gone off tabs of that acid
    Form me a circle, watch my Jagger
    Might lose my jacket and hit a solo, one time
    We too loud in public, them police turned down the function
    Now we outside and the timing's perfect
    Forgot to tell you, gotta tell you how much I vibe with you
    And we don't gotta be solo
    Now stay away from highways
    My eyes like them red lights
    Right now I prefer yellow
    Redbone, so mellow
    Fuck 'round, be cutting you
    Think we were better off solo
    I got that act right in the Windy City that night
    No trees to blow through but blow me and I owe you
    Two grams when the sun rise
    Smoking good, rolling solo
    Solo (solo), solo (solo)
    S-solo (solo), s-solo, (solo)
    [Chorus]
    It's hell on Earth and the city's on fire
    Inhale, in hell there's heaven
    There's a bull and a matador dueling in the sky
    Inhale, in hell there's heaven
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Solo, solo, solo, solo
    [Verse 2]
    I'm skipping showers and switching socks, sleeping good and long
    Bones feeling dense as fuck, wish a nigga would cross
    And catch a solo, on time
    White leaf on my boxers, green leaf turn to vapors for the low
    And that mean cheap, 'cause ain't shit free and I know it
    Even love ain't, 'cause this nut cost, that clinic killed my soul
    But you gotta hit the pussy raw though
    Now your baby momma ain't so vicious
    All she want is her picket fence
    And you protest and you picket sign
    But them courts won't side with you
    Won't let you fly solo
    I wanted that act right in Colorado that night
    I brought trees to blow through, but it's just me and no you
    Stayed up 'til my phone died, smoking big, rolling solo
    [Chorus]
    It's hell on Earth and the city's on fire
    Inhale, in hell there's heaven
    There's a bull and a matador dueling in the sky
    Inhale, in hell there's heaven
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Solo, solo, solo, solo
    [Outro]
    By myself
    Solo, solo, solo, solo
    (By myself, by myself)
    (Solo)

    'SOLO' is an Italian word that means 'to be alone' in english, and in a part of the song he doesn't say 'SOLO' but he says 'SO LOW',so i thought that for him beeing low (SO LOW) and beeing alone (SOLO) are a similar thing, something like he's always alone when he is high or something like he is always sad and Alone(SOLO) when he is low

      Same, man. His vocal delivery at that part, specifically when he sings the "on fire" part with the enchanting instrumentals in the background just legit makes my whole soul cleansed and blessed, I'm not gonna lie. That is absolutely so great that I'm being obssessed with it and having to get back to it to listen on repeat. Actually, I love this song so much but it's what I love the most on the song and I think this is the most beautifully produced track on the project. Truly wholesome. I candidly feel lucky that I discovered Frank, for real.

      @@hsn7018 aight, wtf is wrong with listening to a song that a Kpop artists recommended? Kpop artist trains for years and can easily surpass some of the western artists. there's no need to be rude and disrespectful to artists you dont even listen to.

      @@nizarfaiz I never said their songs are always good and the artists are superior, but frankly some of them are more devoted than western artists. However, what is wrong with taking a music recommendation from an Kpop Idol? Music is Music, it doesn't matter if they like the artist or not. Do you care about every single artist you listen to? Definitely not. Moreover, shouldn't the fans of Frank Ocean be glad that more people are becoming interested in this talented artist? I agree these comments can get annoying, but there's nothing to be done.
