Listen to Frank Ocean’s new song ‘Memrise’

By Sam Rigby

Frank Ocean has returned to music with his first new song since his 2012 debut album Channel Orange.

Memrise – which runs for just under two minutes – is the first indication that the singer is preparing to release his second studio album.

The singer is getting ready to release his new material after signing a new management deal with Three Six Zero earlier this year.

Back in 2012, Ocean opened up about his sexuality, explaining that his first love was a man.

“By the time I realized I was in love, it was malignant. It was hopeless,” he explained. “There was no escaping, no negotiating with the feeling. No choice. It was my first love. It changed my life.”

Ocean’s Channel Orange featured the singles Thinkin’ Bout You, Pyramids and Sweet Life. It peaked at number two on the US and UK Albums Charts.
