Frank Ocean flexible sexuality surely hasn’t dampened his impact on the charts. In fact, the sombre singer-songwriter’s debut album, ‘channel ORANGE’, is on track to enter to the top 10 of the Billboard 200 next week with impressive opening figures.
‘channel ORANGE’ is on track to sell 110K-125K copies in its first week of availability. Surprisingly, the record, which was released seven days ahead of schedule, is currently only available for digital download and won’t be physically available at retail outlets until July 17th.
Thus far, Ocean’s only major media promotion for ‘channel ORANGE’ has been a performance of ‘Bad Religion’ on ‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’. Of course, we can’t overlook the whirlwind of publicity that he received from his public revelation regarding his past relationship with another man.
Trini Trent TV recently highlighted Ocean’s actions for the exciting first episode of its new season. Watch that installment of the show below:
