Frank Ocean Announces “Boys Don’t Cry” Magazine Pop-up Shops
Frank Ocean has announced pop-up shops for his “Boys Don’t Cry” magazine. The four locations can be found via his website here, and below. The singer has so far announced shops in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and London. The magazine was initially announced last April alongside the album Boys Don’t Cry; while we still haven’t gotten that album, Ocean did recently release a visual album, Endless, and a music video for a new song, “Nike.” Take a peek at the magazines below as well; fans can apparently get one copy per person, for free. The magazine features Endless collaborators Tom Sachs, Tyrone Lebon, and Wolfgang Tillman, as well as Kanye West.
Update (8/20 8:03 p.m. EST): Frank Ocean has released his second studio album Blond, the album formerly titled Boys Don’t Cry. It’s streaming here exclusively via Apple Music, and features contributions from Beyoncé, Andre 3000, Brian Eno, David Bowie, Jamie xx, and more.
Read Pitchfork’s interview with Wolfgang Tillman, the composer whose track “Device Control” was used as the intro and outro for Ocean’s album Endless.
