[Free Album Stream] Earl Sweatshirt - 'Doris'

I'm not one to vocally deem myself an avid fan of Odd Future, but my CD collection from the past year begs to differ. After streaming Earl Sweatshirt's new album, I'm positive that my physical copies of Frank Ocean's Channel Orange and Tyler, The Creator's Wolf will soon be joined by Doris.

Now that the "Where's Earl?" phenomenon has ended and the shock value surrounding Odd Future has calmed down a bit, it's time to see if the nineteen-year old emcee is really the prodigy he's been proclaimed to be. Stream Doris courtesy of Odd Future's Souncloud HERE, and check out the visuals to the Tyler, The Creator featured "Whoa" below. Be sure to cop on August 20th if you like what you hear!

Earl Sweatshirt ft. Frank Ocean - "Sunday"

Earl Sweatshirt was the sole rap feature on Frank Ocean's debut album channel ORANGE, and the favor's been returned as the singer-songwriter morphs into an emcee on "Sunday." Frank's half of the record is an added bonus to Earl's well-crafted verse as Odd Future's most skilled lyricist takes on the simplistically intricate self-produced track.

Stream "Sunday" below, and hit the jump to see Earl's television debut as he took to Late Night Jimmy Fallon to premiere "Burgundy" with The Roots. Doris hits shelves August 20th,

[Music Video] Frank Ocean - "Lost"

If I had my way, each song from Frank Ocean's channel Orange would have a visual counterpart. It looks as if I'm one step to having my dream come true as Frank let loose the music video for the upbeat track "Lost."

Watch below as director Francisco Soriano compiles moments from Frank's summer of 2012, and be sure to buy the Grammy Award winning album on Amazon or iTunes if you haven't already!

[Music Video] Tyler, The Creator - "IFHY" + 'Wolf' [Album Stream]

Tyler, The Creator plans to release his album Wolf tomorrow, and both the critics and fans are giving the Odd Future general his props on this one. The Sony distributed album is a proper follow up to his previous efforts Bastard and Goblin as we find Tyler in a more elevated creative space in terms of  production and lyrical delivery.

While Odd Future videos have always been entertaining, Tyler also stepped up his game in the visual department. Watch below as he brings a Mattel themed nightmare to life in the visuals to the Pharrell featured "IFHY."


To hear how the rest of Wolf sounds before it hits stores tomorrow, stream the album in full after the jump!

Frank Ocean - "Eyes Like Sky"

Frank Ocean is starting off 2013 with two Grammy Awards under his belt and about 11 songs crafted for his sophomore album.  While we wait to hear what Frank has in store with producers like Pharrell, Danger Mouse, and Malay, take a listen to the previously unreleased "Eyes Like Sky."

Though the track didn't make the cut for Channel Orange, "Eyes Like Sky" definitely deserved to see the light of day. Your girl's got puns.

I remember Big Boi saying that he wanted to appear along with Andre 3000 on Frank Ocean's "Pink Matter," but of course legal mumbo jumbo wouldn't allow it.  Instead, we get an unofficial Outkast reunion as Sir Lucious adds a verse to the Channel Orange favorite.

Ever since Frank Ocean came out as bisexual on the fourth of the July, there's been a lot of talk surrounding what his statement means for his future and also for the black and hip hop communities themselves. His Odd Future brothers Tyler, The Creator and Earl Sweatshirt could care less about his preferences, and they explained this (sort of) when they sat down with MTV News and added their signature humor to the entire situation.

Last night, Frank Ocean's debut album Channel Orange was surprisingly released digitally a week before its scheduled July 17th date. Moments later the singer, who recently revealed in a heartfelt letter that he was bisexual, took to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon to perform "Bad Religion," one of the most  personal tracks from the album. Watch the emotional and, in my opinion, incredible performance below.

Frank Ocean - Channel Orange (Teaser) [VIDEO]

July 17th. Channel Orange. What is that? Ummmmm. My guess is a new project. Or at least I hope that's what it is.

Frank Ocean, in his usual mysterious fashion, dropped off this teaser video via Tumblr this morning, so that means something's coming! As soon as I find out you know I've got you.

When Jay-Z & Kanye West release a video, especially after all this time, you know it's going to be a work of art. With the help of director Romain Gavras, they depict a full out riot in Prague to the tune of "No Church In The Wild." Neither they nor Frank Ocean appear in the visuals, but it's captivating nonetheless. Watch The Throne in stores now.

From the sounds of "Math," this is probably a Frank Ocean demo for someone else. But you know how that goes... Might be his single in a few months.
