This might be the most impressive album I have seen in a while. Nostalgia Ultra is the debut album from Frank Ocean, a member of Tyler, The Creator's group OFWGKTA (Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All) or Odd Future. Frank Ocean is an artist from New Orleans who moved to LA after Hurricane Katrina. He originally was associated with Def Jam but, feeling ignored, he left and joined Tyler, The Creator. This album is incredible. Ranging from back beats like Hotel California to Coldplay, MGMT to Mr. Hudson. The album is raw, emotional, and filled with exceptional stories. In "Novacane" he talks about a porn star who wants to be a dentist. When he was asked what genre his album was he said it was a combination of bluegrass and death metal. I'd say death metal is a little far, but a mix between bluegrass and R&B is believable.
