[@mikeyv94]

Loved the video man and I wholeheartedly agree with your stances. I’ve been seeing this notion of “Well Frank doesn’t owe us anything” and that’s right, he doesn’t just like I don’t owe anybody anything but that doesn’t mean we, as everyday people, are allowed to just not follow through on our obligations, especially ones we’re getting paid for. And although he doesn’t owe his fans anything, he does owe us respect. We’ve respected him for years, despite how he’s treated his fans, we’ve all been super dedicated and loyal to him (and I’m not the fan that’s like WE DEMAND MORE MUSIC) if he didn’t want to make another album, that’s totally fine, he can go and fade into obscurity but it’s the fact that he keeps saying things like “it’s coming” and dropping breadcrumbs when he knows how the fan base will take that. Idk just all around a disappointment.

[@yahard42]

This is all very funny because if you were really a frank ocean fan you would know and like how he really is, not that "he knows how the fan base will take that". he didn't disrespect nobody at all, not even the people who worked at that(first of all, dangerous) ice rink, because he paid them! The fan base he is really worry about(or not worry at all) is the one who is ready to accept him and the delivery of his art, because thats what they want to see: him beeing him and the way he feels to show it! not to choose which songs he would perform, how he would perform them, how much he pets people in the show, if they care too much for some delays with the show and how long he would take to release new songs. If you are trying to box his approach in some way you are used to from another artists you are crearly ain't paying attention and doesn't know him at all. Frank Ocean is my favourite fucking artist since he started and that was one of the most amazing and memorable performances experiences I ever witnessed in my life for a lot of reasons, you should be thankful. The truth is most people are just pissed because he didn't play the hits they wanted to hear exactly the way it is on spotify and you don't accept the way he makes things wanting him to be something else

[@petealvarado2394]

@@yahard42 i like how you said “ you should be thankful” to a person who was paid $4 million dollars to give us Literally nothing ! He showed up an hour and a half late gave us like 4 songs and you still have the audacity to say we should be thankful. Girl bye fans like you are the reason why he keeps doing shit like this. He had no respect for anyones time and effort. At the end of the day he was being a drama queen and should’ve never said yes to performing in the first place.

[@mikeyv94]

@@yahard42 okay man lmao just because someone is your favorite artist, doesn't mean they're free of criticism but go off with ya novel I guess 😆

[@ceered1017]

How could he have been more respectful? He wasn't late because he was partying or not giving a fuck, they were working on the stage until 10:45p. And he's not touring blonde. He doesn't have to sing Nikes and Nights or Pyramids. He went in and freshened up all the other versions he played and they sounded phenomenal. The visuals were done well. I find it hard to ask for more when I got a lot out of a set that was fresh as fck on a myriad of levels.

[@KILLIVVN]

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and watching the video 🙌🏿

[@reu2002]

For the ‘Frank doesn’t owe you anything’ people, if he accepts a contract to do a performance, and you pay the price of admission, he does in fact owe you a decent standard of performance that starts on time. That is literally the bare minimum.

[@shadow_realm47]

These fans need to have some self respect and move on. Frank doesn't care about his own fans that much is clear.

[@juantequeno]

Easily spent 2k to go see this man as a bucket list item. Been a fan for over a decade since I was a teenager and now that I have a stable job with good cash flow this was my first big purchase. I heard so much about how he treats his fans (not refunding vinyls that ship months late and are shattered) but I guess I chalked it up to having a bad team. After this, I truly feel he resents his fans. Whether it’s because of fame, anxiety, etc he resents us. Doesn’t resent the money we earn him though

[@KILLIVVN]

Bro I feel you so much

[@eddiebankston13]

Frank literally needs to be up front with everything. If he doesn’t have any motivation to make music or just do anything he needs to tell everyone. There isn’t a lot of excuses for the way he behaved or what he did.

[@BrokenEquipment.]

No he doesn’t

[@cs7611]

He doesn’t owe anybody shit, the same way that you don’t owe anybody shit. At the end of the day he’s just a dude like the rest of us. Granted, my opinion doesn’t make yours wrong, but that’s just how I feel

[@itgirlarchive]

@@cs7611 as humans we actually owe each other respect and basic decency

[@itselllyyy]

@@cs7611 I paid for my Coachella tickets, I think I’m owed a decent performance. I literally would’ve been happy if he just showed up and sang without all the extra shit. He doesn’t owe me anybody anything except the obligations and the deal he made to perform at Coachella which people flew to from all over the country. People waited for hours. I was a hardcore fan. I stood in the crowd for hours and hours just to hear him sing and he played a whole dj set no one asked for and didn’t even sing some of his songs. I love his music but I’m not gonna defend his actions especially if it’s disrespectful. All he had to do was the bare minimum. Everyone put so much effort, not only his fans but the people who worked there to set his stage and perform. Literally everyone I met there bought those tickets to see HIM. lol

[@shadow_realm47]

@@itselllyyy Your disappointment is valid. From what I've seen Frank has good dedicated fans,they're not unkind even though they have every right to be so. He doesn't deserve the Hype, he's a special artist but at some stage we have to accept that he's a poor performer or at the very least an absentee performer. All that money, fame and fandom does come with obligation. If an artist doesn't care about their own people should the people still show them love?

Speaking from the perspective of a person that went w2 I’m glad he dropped out. Skrillex, four tet, and Fred’s set was legendary. I loved every single minute of it and I could feel their passion. Although I was so so upset and sad I’m still glad I went. Coachella wasn’t the best experience (60 hour drive total for me and car camping) but I still loved it. I met some amazing people and I got to see skrillex for the first time, porter’s set was so touching, and pusha t’s set was passionate! Can’t say I’ll do it again but I’m glad I did it once at least 😭

[@sdollar1399]

what bothers me the most about the whole situation is that, even though some factors were out of his control, he still has yet to apologize about having to cut it short and the multiple issues throughout the show

[@gummy5862]

From the info presented, most of the factors were within his control. The only things I can see not being within his control are his foot injury (which wasn’t really all that bad based on the footage) and his grief for his brother, which is really kind of just an excuse since he could’ve cancelled the show long ago. Sure production was being annoying initially, but they got everything done the way he wanted just for him to tell them to tear everything down last minute.

[@umyeahok2097]

As a Kali Uchis Fan I was very annoyed w frank ocean fans because they wouldn’t let us go to the front 😒 it was so annoying. So I’m not gonna lie I was kinda glad to hear y’all got scammed for one second lol then I felt bad. Smh 🤦🏻‍♀️ he shouldn’t have headlined

[@naomilikayi5927]

This is the best take I've seen on this whole situation so far: being empathetic to Frank's possible situation, holding him accountable, and validating your first-hand experience as a fan and others. I definitely got more insight into the stage situation and see how that could piss more people off since he was practically sitting behind a backdrop and metal beams which I didn't really make out during the live streams. As much as people would want to make out Frank's performance to be this "avant-garde performance piece on space and time with the long breaks in between," it really was a cop-out and is chaotic at the end of the day. I definitely love Frank's musicianship and creativity at the end of the day and I don't see that diminishing anytime soon, but I most definitely think he needs to reevaluate how he should go about committing to his obligations, instead of fulfilling them half-assed. Cause at the end of the day your not only screwing the people who put money into you over, but you're screwing yourself and your credibility over. Mucho love :)

[@KILLIVVN]

i'm listening to Frank since 14 y.o. He was the first black artist i've listened and then I found out about hip hop, r&b and many cool artists. Though in my country it is not popular and it was hard to find out about this because I hadn't an internet till 14 y.o. I felt like a part of something big and global after listening to this amazing music and it inspired me to learn English and to be involved in something that will expand my mind so as I'll be able to leave my village one day and make it big, see the world. I feel your dissapointment. Thousands of people made so much effort to appear there, to see him, to hear his voice and sing together familiar songs. It's sad

Bro, I feel for you so much.

I stayed up until 7 in the morning here in Ireland to see his set last week and only got to see it on some random IG live and I was angry at the lack of effort put into it from Frank but I can’t even imagine what it must be like for someone like yourself who spent so much to just see that lacklustre performance

This had the potential to be such a great possibly career defining performance... Such a shame. Im a little tired of hardcore fans trying to defend him for this performance. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to unexpectedly lose a close loved one. But business is business and if you're going to show up to a performance. It's not too much to ask for a somewhat competent performance. Especially from Frank who we know is capable of fantastic genuinely moving live performances. If ANY other artist (ie.. Justin Bieber) did something similar he would be relentlessly lambasted for it, even by his core fanbase. But because Frank is such a a well respected artist and a critical darling of the music industry. People feel like they need to defend him. Bad actions need to be called out, regardless of who causes them.

[@KILLIVVN]

Thank you so much for this comment and I totally agree we should hold him accountable

[@mysticfellow9843]

Exactly. Frank reminds me of that guy that secretly loves attention/pissing people off while playing the "cool/mysterious" card. If he was actually cool, he would have tried in his performance and not fuck with everyone involved, from the set designers to the roadies, the ice-skaters, the audience, etc.

While I’m not a fan of the hate some artist can get, I’m also not a fan of the crazy fans who defend them for everything they do. More people need to hear what you’re saying, and understand that these people lift up are just like them and shouldn’t get any special treatment. This is one of the things that pisses me off about people like Harry Styles fan bases; the fact that he’s so loved, that it feels like if he committed actual murder, people would defend him, is sickening.

My husband and I went broke to go see him b/c we thought he was WORTH that. Granted, that’s not on him cos we decided to buy the tickets anyways. I waited since Porter Robinson who honestly gave it his all for his performance and you can just feel how much gratitude he had to be able to perform there. I had no absurd expectations from Frank except to just hear him sing, I didn’t even care if he didn’t set up and elaborate performance. I literally would’ve been so happy just to hear and see him sing. But despite waiting for hours and having to sit through Bjork’s set, no offense to her, she put a lot of effort into her set. But she was not my type of tea. Then Frank delays the whole thing for an hour. Then takes long pauses in between his songs and then he spent the whole time inside his little “box” and shows a whole dj set THATS NOT EVEN HIM DJing. Then doesn’t even sing a huge chunk of his songs after. I also wanted to sing along and vibe with him but he basically did a cover to his own songs. Which would’ve been fine if not for all the other stuff. I just kept making excuses for him in my head. Because he was my fave. I went feeling disappointed. He even wanted to blame the event for not letting him play but bro literally made them melt a whole ice rink. & yes they made a whole lot of money cos of him but he still didn’t deliver.

[@itselllyyy]

I HATE all these other celebrities saying how beautiful his performance was. I BET it was sitting in the VIP section. Not having to stand for hours waiting for him. At least TWO people fainted during his set. They were not too far in front of me. & the least he could do was just give us a basic performance and I would’ve been happy as hell. Truly.

[@dnicole1391]

The only reason I would’ve went to Coachella this year is to see Frank Ocean. I’m sure that was the same or main reason for many others who went. So glad I didn’t waste my money because the show he gave is worth watching at home. It’s also sad that you have to give an elaborate explanation to validate your disappointment. Holding artists accountable for wasting fans time doesn’t make the fans entitled. Mans was paid $4 million PER show so high expectations is valid. I also don’t think Frank canceled because of a leg injury, he doesn’t even have a song that requires him to even stand up lol. Frank seems like a perfectionist which gets in the way of him sharing his vision and bridging the gap with his fanbase. It was apart of his image/brand but I feel likes there’s a disconnect between him and his fans now after coachella. I think he’s still a “behind the scenes” kind of guy from being a more of a writer at heart than a performer which is fine… but just stop booking shows and taking away headline spots from artists that actually want to be there. I want to know how HE prepared for Coachella because it sounds like he just found out about certain decisions the minute he arrived to Coachella. I feel like he must’ve put his ice skating idea in the hands of production and relied on creative directors to organize the show while he focused on the music/set list. He should’ve had more oversight on the creative direction to avoid seeing it last minute and scrapping the whole thing. If that’s the case then he can’t really be upset with anyone but himself.

[@dak0tacr4ft]

i love what you said about growing up looking up to artists. i was in the exact situation as you. i relate a lot. that's why this stuff sucks.

[@KILLIVVN]

Thank you 😞

[@paigew6707]

Is crazy see the excitement a hope in your eyes from the video before going to Coachella. I would have never imagined you’d come back so hurt and disappointed. 😢 sorry dude. It meant a lot to all of us but it must have hurt even more that you wasted so much time and money.

[@KILLIVVN]

😔 yeah this one stung a lot

[@hafizwllms]

Coachella sounds like the hunger games.

[@cammyg24]

I bought Weekend 2 tickets and we flew out across the country to see him. It was sad and annoying to hear the news of him dropping out. That being said I still had a blast at my first Coachella and witness PHM legendary set

[@adellis24]

Frank Ocean will be around years from now, PHM/TBA... won't be so I think you lucked out in the end. Plus if you went to Jai Paul's set there was no need to so see Frank imitate him.

[@STGsnix]

w style good job keep it up bro!!

[@cammyt9030]

I love Bjork I'm so happy she's still performing and had a good set. Sorry, Frank didn't deliver as expected.

[@_dekunut]

Sorry for what happened. Same shit happened to me. Frank hates his own fucking fans. And I feel bad for the people that worked on that rink. All the money spent to go see Frank on Sunday. But me and my friends got scammed and also it is all my fault because they wanted to go to rolling loud. They still haven’t forgave me.

I was there at coachella for Frank, right up in the front/middle of the crowd. And don’t get me wrong, I’m a die hard Frank Ocean Fan, we all Waited for hourssss, stood in 1 spot, didn’t move at all. Yes he came out 1 hour late. But mannnn we he actually came out and sung then talked on the microphone, that was just it for me man, that was everything. Goosebumps all over my body, man I was just so happy I witnessed him, Couldn’t believe he pulled up, I was so scared he was going to cancel etc. All I can say from my experience, it wasn’t as good as i expected. BUT I’m still sooo sooo happy with it. I personally only liked a couple of the songs he remixed but wish he just performed them normally. So grateful to be there 🙏🏼

[@KILLIVVN]

I was scared to click on this vid cause the thumbnail seemed so malicious, but my expectations were pleasantly subverted. The vibes felt akin to a love letter. KILLIVVN, I felt like you eloquently expressed disappointment, while showing love and respect you have for an artist's work. I'm sure your take here is resonating with many of us who love frank's work, but don't blindly agree with some of the choices he's been making ('chella performance, merch, etc.) Thank you for the time you put into this my guy

[@cheeseballjohnson2368]

i hope at some point you do a jai paul vid, love love love your content man

[@demetriusdearmon56]

Man, the show was so raw idc. and as a casual fan of him, im very pleased. that’s the kind of set i dont mind waiting for, calvin harris on the other hand… and i dont say that bc i actively listen to one and not the other. but rather bc i got a visual artistic experience in addition to the music i came to hear. i was hella far from the stage bc i almost blacked out, and i still felt immersed in his vision. it seemed like he and the team were really enjoying themselves and when it comes down to it, thats all i can ask of an artist. im seeing a lot of people having gripes about waiting, about the setlist, etc. and its not that those arent valid, but if you’re familiar with frank you know hes not a traditional cookie cutter musician. the set was imbued with his other artistic endeavors and i thought that was a serious treat. plus to play the same songs for us, rework them and show that musical longevity can be achieved through simple means…that was a flex if you ask me but in regard to the criticisms, it kinda falls on deaf ears for me. i feel like a lot of fans project these weird, overdramatized standards and expectations on an artist who has literally never been one to do shit like that. like its no secret that he’s reclusive and doesn’t actively put out music on schedule like say the weeknd or tyler or whatever have you. so people acting like, shocked beyond comprehension is a little bit odd imo. for me, i saw an artist whose music and art has moved me significantly over the last decade, and to finally experience him and his art and the people who aided him in bringing it to us live, it just doesnt get better than that.

[@Kim-yf4sg]

This.

[@tyeekurosaki4675]

Agree 🙌🏽

[@WildHeart7777]

That’s just it. You’re a *casual* fan and you didn’t spend your money on going to see him, so of course you aren’t disappointed… 🤷‍♀️

[@demetriusdearmon56]

@@WildHeart7777 I’m a casual fan in the sense that I am very familiar and in tune with his music, but I don’t have a channel dedicated to the man. Frank being a headliner was the biggest driver in me buying a ticket, so yes, i did spend money to see him and I did so with no expectations of what I wanted it to be or what i think it should’ve been. I just accepted what was going to come. Regardless, I went to see him live - and i got that. The suckiest part was the lateness which resulted in him cutting the set short.

[@rickeysantos]

Love see this from a frank fan. A bunch of frank fans who didn’t attend the festival or even never attended Coachella are quick to say that artists don’t owe their fans anything. Keep it up this was a great unbiased video.

Respect the artist. You want to control the Artist, CRAZY FANDOM

[@jcelinacoffee]

I’ve been a massive Frank Ocean fan for over ten years now- so I am very familiar with his style of performing/ disinterest in touring or playing shows. However, agreeing to be a headlining act at maybe the biggest US festival of the year, and realizing moments before you’re not ready or over it, just isn’t fair to the fans and production teams. I really hate the sentiment of “you should know how Frank is by now”; that’s so unfair to say to fans who *believed in him* and believed he would come through. Along with the sentiment that the set performers “got paid anyway”. Those ice skaters are artists too, they deserve to perform and share their art and talent and being told moments before to walk in a circle for an hour is just disrespectful. I am deeply empathetic to his pain and grief and even just discomfort with performing, but this was just so frustrating and heartbreaking.

[@ToonTrill]

[@KILLIVVN]

[@TeeRells711]

Imo , he definitely does owe the people what they paid for. especially considering all the turnoil revolving around the experience and the constant cliff hanging his fans , the merch not being delivered , the momentum breaking .. I'm not gonna apologize for his poor performance & organizing he should not have taken on Coachella if he wasn't ready or at least pretended to care if the timing was bad .. something .. I get it were fans and he had someone pass but idk It doesn't feel right excusing this performance either because he kinda just does this too and fans kinda just hamster drips whatever he gives out.. they deserve better

[@jackxavier3915]

Great set loved the new versions don’t give a fuck what nobody say. My life is dope. Frank is dope.

[@sajiste]

Hopefully someone got in his ear to keep it simple after this. A tribute to the dead can be very modest, but to each their own. He’s experimenting as artist should and has his own vision so i can understand.

I'm in there, and I lined up after the Bjork set. I got in close to the stage, and honestly. I think people are just playing themselves by lining up in the scorching heat really early in the day, and only have themselves to blame. My honest take in that concert is that.. his vocals are so good. His different prod, renditions.. works really well just so his vocal can be heard more than anything. And weirdly.. I fucked with those beats, but then Its just a me thing.. and I totally understand people being put off by it lol

[@cigarettesafterhours]

Yeah, i had a viral video on tiktok about frank cancelling the livestream and when i made a vid about how disappointed i was about the show (im a local to coachella so i know the setup) i was like completely attacked by some people telling me to kms because i was ungrateful and stuff like rhat.
