I've always wanted to make a career in the arts, and I think that my only hope at doing that is to make it more about the work.
Frank OceanA friend of mine jokes that I have a painstaking royalty complex. Like maybe I was a duke in a past life.
Frank OceanWhenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.
Frank OceanBeing singer/songwriter implies versatility and being able to create more than one medium, and R&B artist is a box, simple as that. It is 'that's what you do, that's what you are', and that's a little unfair, to me, because I don't just do that. So I like singer/songwriter because it allows me to move a little bit more freely.
