EXCLUSIVE: A source tells Rolling Stone that Frank Ocean's set was actually 10 minutes LONGER than originally intended. Details:
Ocean didn’t have much to say while he was on stage, but then again he was there to perform, not talk. While he didn’t really end up doing either, he did clarify to the audience: “I want to talk about why I’m here because it’s not because of a new album, not that there’s not a new album.”
The decision to headline the festival was more so connected to his late brother, Ryan Breaux, who died in a car accident in 2020. “My brother and I came to this festival a lot. I feel like I was dragged by him sometimes because I didn’t want to get a respiratory infection.… I would always come here, and one of my fondest memories is watching Rae Sremmurd with my brother … and Travis [Scott performed] in that tent,” he told the crowd. “I know [Ryan] would be so excited to be here with all of us.
Ocean went on to explain that the club interlude was strategic in taking some of the attention off of him — despite him being the top-billed performer of the festival. “This is fucking chaotic but so much fun.… Looking back, I feel like in 2020, when I was just starting to throw parties in little clubs in New York before shit started going down, I was having a good time listening to new music, with DJs coming in on their shit,” he explained.
