After what seems like an eternity, Frank Ocean is finally giving fans the new music they’ve been waiting for.
The mysterious R&B crooner has spent much of the last two years promising music lovers new tunes that instead resulted in botched release dates and cryptic followup statements about why things didn’t go as planned, but it seems those days are now long gone. Taking to his website boysdontcry.co late Thursday evening, Ocean streamed an entire visual album titled Endless as fans watched him build a staircase while the tracks played loudly in the background.

Although Endless is indeed a full project, another formal album is reportedly still on the horizon and set to release on Apple Music this weekend, according to Rolling Stone. The new album was previously titled Boys Don’t Cry, but Rolling Stone reports that Ocean has apparently decided to scrap that title for a new one that has yet to be revealed.
