Frank Ocean comes out the closet

SCROTUM [Edit] [Delete] 08:52, 4 July '12

I think this is really sweet. You can see the raw emotion in his statement and how much he has agonised over this. To be a young upcoming male black artist loosely affiliated with a crew renowned for their homophobia and to be this bold....lot of respect for this guy.

It shouldn't matter of course, but in reality it does. Not that he's gay or bisexual, of course, but more that he's comfortable with saying it and not trying to bury it to avoid confrontations as he continues his rise to stardom.
