Psychedelic soul source?

Hi,

Why does it have to be explicit? By that point he had only released a mixtape and the thr articles published were released the same time as the album, and both clearly indicate tiwards his music overall, including this album. If thats the case then wheres the source for the other genres, at least progressive soul? 202.90.242.154 (talk) 06:51, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Channel Orange should be classified as his second album

They've done this with Tyler, the Creator with Bastard on Wikipedia, Tyler referred Bastard as debut studio album, but Wikipedia referred as a mixtape, but this corrected sometime in Late 2024, Frank Ocean has referred to Channel Orange as his sophomore studio album instead of his debut, cause he says his debut album is Nostalgia, Ultra so I think Nostalgia, Ultra should be referred to his debut album, Channel Orange his second, and Blonde his third album. P.S I do think also think Endless should referred as an studio album not a visual album, but I still don't about this yet. J (talk) 23:45, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
