NOVACANNEEEEEE - Frank Ocean

Frank Ocean is a new artist. Maybe not really new cos most of these artists are usually underground before they blow, but yeah Frank's blowing time has come!

The first song i heard from him was Novacane (recommended by my friend Jabz), and since then i have downloaded his mixtape Nostalgia. Awesome mixtape. He reminds me of John Legend. Nothing soulful about his music o and i doubt he plays the piano, but i think its his lyrical swag and content that reminds me of John Legend.

Here are the lyrics to his 'Novacane' track:

I think I started something,
I got what I wanted
did didn't I can't feel nothing
Superhuman, even when i'm fucking
Viagra popping, every single record
Auto-tuning, zero emotion, muted emotion
Pitch corrected
Computed emotion uh huh

I blame it on a model broad with the hollywood smile
Oww, stripper booty and rack like wow
Brain like berkeley
Met her at Coachella, I went to see Jigga
She went to see z-trip
Perfect, I took a seat on the ice cold lawn
She handed me a ice blue bong, whatever

She said she wanna be dentist really badly
She's in school paying, for tuition doing porn in the valley
At least she working

But girl i can't feel my face
What are we smoking anyway
She said don't let the high go to waste
But can you taste, a little taste of..

Novacaine
Baby, Baby
Novacaine baby i want you,
Fuck me good, Fuck me long, Fuck me numb
Love me now when i'm gone love me none
Love me none, love me none
Numb numb numb numb

Sink full a dishes
Pacing in the kitchen
Cocaine for breakfast, Yikes
Bed full of women
Flip on a tripod
little red light on shooting, I'm feeling like
Stanley Kubrick
This is some visionary shit
Been tryna film pleasure with my eyes wide shut
But it keeps on moving...

I blame it on a model broad with the hollywood smile
Stripper booty with the rack like wow
I'll never forget ya
You put me on a feel that i never had, never had, never had
and ever since I've been tryna get it back, and pick it up, and put it back

Now i'm something like the chemist on campus
But there's no drug around
Quite like what i found in you you

I still can't feel my face (oh-oh)
What am i smoking anyway (ah-ah)
She said don't let the high go to waste
But can you taste, a little taste of...

Novacaine , baby baby
Novacaine baby i want you
Fuck me good
Fuck me long
Fuck me numb
Love me now when i'm gone love me none
Love me none love me none
numb numb numb numb

Novacaine, Novacaine, Novacaine, Novacaine, Novacaine ...
Numb the pain, numb the pain
Numb the pain, numb the pain, numb the pain...
Novacaine, Novacaine, Novacaine, Novacaine, Novacaine...
For the pain, for the pain...
Novacaine, novacaine

(Singing)

Pretty girls involved with me
Making pretty love to me, pretty
Pity, pity
All the pretty girls involved with me
Making pretty love to me, pretty
Pity, pity

Ooh ooh, I can't feel a thing
I can't feel, can't feel a thing

Can't feel a thing
Can't feel feel feel feel her
I Can't feel feel her
Novacaine Novacaine Novacaine
I can't feel feel her
Novacaine, for the pain, for the pain

I can't feel feel her (feel her, feel her)
Ooh, Novacaine Novacaine (caine, caine...)

Crazy right? tot so too. lol. He's moving up the ladder sha. Like infact he's not moving up slowly. he took a damn leap cos his first main collaboration was with Jay Z and Kanye West on Watch the Throne can u imagine that. On two songs - "No Church In The Wild" and "Made In America (Sweet Baby Jesus)"

I know he's just starting sha and i just can't wait for more!!

Roman!!
