    Frank Ocean comes out

    He has caused quite the reaction after posting this on tumblr and got a very positive response from the music community on Twitter so far:

    I still have no idea who he is, despite this story banging around on digitalspy for a few days now. I guess it is significant for the genre, though.

    I can't be fucked reading that but yay for Frank Ocean! I never thought I'd see him of all people coming out given that he's written and sung his own material about sleeping with female porn stars etc.

    I only really know him as a featured artist on "No Church in the Wild" by Jay-Z/Kanye but he's a pretty well known singer/rapper/writer within the hip hop community. Needless to say the gay issue is still a very big taboo in that industry, similar to country music.

    Frank Ocean wrote Bigger on Justin Bieber's debut album, which has turned out to be a song about breaking up with a boyfriend.

    Wow! Quite a big deal as he's only just emerging. Will probably kill his career off though

    Come on Taio, you're NEXT!

    I'm just surprised she didn't end it with Be Yoncé.

    I don't know who this person is, but he can't be worse than that bloke from Blue.

    considering he comes from the super hardcore OFWGKTA, this is a huge step for the milieu of the genre

    #1 on US iTUnes too, I wonder if he has any shot at getting #1 on the Billboard 200 (not likely cause his digital sales are probably much bigger than the physical sales but it's nice to ponder). It would make quite the STATEMENT
