FRANK OCEAN'S NEW WAVE, BOYS DON'T CRY, IS...NOT HERE

We gotta hand it to Frank Ocean for drumming up anticipation to a fever pitch for the expected 8/5 Apple-exclusive release of Boys Don’t Cry. We counted down to midnight ET, then to midnight PT—nothing, nada, nyet.

As the sun comes up on the West Coast Friday morning, there is still not Ocean view. Was this whole thing a head fake, and if so, why?
