The black-and-white cinematic preview for ‘St Chroma’ shows Tyler leading a group of masked men through a barren desert. The teaser, just over a minute and a half long, ends with the group entering a container labeled ‘Chromakopia,’ which is also the title of his upcoming album, followed by a dramatic explosion. The sudden shift to color at the end hints at something major on the horizon.
Frank's last album, 'Blonde', came out in 2016, but since then, Frank Ocean has continued to captivate fans. On July 29, he shared a series of Instagram photos, including shots from a bullet train in Japan with Stray Rats founder Julian Consuegra. However, the real excitement came from a later post showing Ocean holding a bass guitar in a recording studio, fueling speculation about new music.
Fans on X, formerly Twitter, quickly reacted to the teaser. One wrote, “Tyler the Creator is Frank Ocean's best friend… Frank feature confirmed!!!”
Walk with me....
