Frank more than came into his own with Channel ORANGE and triumphed everything the group had done prior to it combined.
He's moving more away from Odd Future, because honestly they'll just hold him back.

Earl is the one I don't understand the love for, don't see anything special about him as an MC. Tyler is on make or break with his next album, if he releases one of the same quality of Goblin without making a duplicate, he can make something of his youthful exuberance. If not, he's just going to go down as another musician who peaked too early and couldn't live up to his potential.

Besides, though Channel Orange is probably the opus of the entire group right now, his personality is still in line with the group. He also still falls back on the group for production, verses, etc., so i don't see him entirely breaking away, though he's definitely making a name for himself.

Yeah, that's fair but it's only a matter of time until bigger and better producers want to work with him.
Even on Channel ORANGE he had collaborations with big names such as Andre 3000 and John Mayer, so I don't think by the time his next album rolls around there'll be much input from the rest of Odd Future.

Well, John Mayer's contribution was still on a Tyler produced track, and, depending on which version of the album you listen to, Tyler is featured for a verse on the very end of the album, with a song title slightly referencing Goblin (Golden Girl). I'm not against Frank breaking off to make his own, but i'd be disappointed if he entirely abandoned the crew, as you can see the similarities and chemistry (useful chemistry-- all those different rap personalities at your disposal?) between them.

At least we now know Flying Lotus is a shitty rapper.

Pretty solid album. Loving the beats, especially the songs starting at 6:20, 21:30, and 27:30.

What's up with the tracklist, or is it more supposed to be a continuous track? I looked it up and there are like 30 songs on a 30 minute album.
