This is a post I started approximately 20 seconds into the song. Perhaps this a selfish, indirect attempt to shove Frank down a few more people's throats with the early of release of Channel Orange, but there you go. If we are being honest, Thinkin Bout You is a song that has been rinsed, despite only being released 4 months ago. There has been quite a buzz surrounding this 25 year olf Malaysian who coincidentally also had Pharrell doing production on her music (see: Live Your Life). Yuna's sample-fuelled cover is a surge of emotions helped along by the sweet, layered harmonies. Despite the afore-mentioned rinsing, it sounds remarkably fresh and endearing.

If you reside under a rock you may be one of the 5 people on this earth who haven't already listened to Channel Orange by Frank Ocean. If you are one of those 5 poor souls deprived of his story tales, weaved of rich melodies and knowing words listen here.
Taking my bias into consideration highlights are Pyramids, Bad Religion, Sweet Life and Pink Matter.

The moment we've all been waiting for... Frank Ocean is releasing his album Channel Orange on the 16th July (17th US). The first taste of this is Pyramids which has already had 144723 plays on Soundcloud in 16 hours. Insane. Pyramids is a 10 minute offering of stories of Pharoahs and Cleopatra which morphs into a electro funk track somewhere inbetween, deserving of the Drive soundtrack. Ocean goes even further and descends into the Pyramids chorus. If this is what we have to look forward to so far, it can only get better.
Pyramids by Frank Ocean
The track is available for free download.
