[268] set the cheetahs on the loose
Oops, I slipped and lost complete control of the weekend and now it's gone! Oopsies, oops, wuh oh, oops! WrestleDream was a lot of fun, though, and now it's October! I gotta go do some... stuff.
Wikipedia Sez: Channel Orange (stylized as channel ORANGE) is the debut studio album by American R&B singer-songwriter Frank Ocean. It was released on July 10, 2012, by Def Jam Recordings. After releasing his mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra the previous year, Ocean began writing new songs with Malay, a producer and songwriter who then assisted him with recording Channel Orange at EastWest Studios in Hollywood. Rather than rely on samples as he had with his mixtape, Ocean wanted to approach sound and song structure differently on the album. Other producers who worked on the album included Om'Mas Keith and Pharrell Williams. Its recording also featured guest appearances from Odd Future rappers Earl Sweatshirt and Tyler, the Creator, vocalist/songwriter André 3000, and guitarist John Mayer.
Genre: R&B
Styles: Alternative R&B, Contemporary R&B
Release Date: July 10th, 2012
Prior Familiarity: Low.
What I Did While Listening: Ran.
Verdict: Not very good running music, and not really my thing otherwise, but it's got a few nice moments of poignancy.
Favourite Song: Pink Matter
