Frank Ocean drops surprise new track ‘In My Room’
Song follows similarly unannounced release of single ‘DHL’ in October

Frank Ocean has dropped a surprise new song titled “In My Room”.
The track, which had not been announced prior to its sudden unveiling today, marks the second surprise drop of new Ocean material in recent weeks.
In mid-October, Ocean premiered “DHL” on his Beats 1 radio show Blonded.
“In My Room”, which was released on Apple Music this morning, is a slinky R&B number with lyrics that nod to rough sex, luxury fashion and the effect fame has on relationships.
“You won’t flex when camera’s flashing,” Ocean sings. “Not fake laid-back, no it’s natural / And I don’t think you made for the life I live.”
Two further new tracks, “Dear April” and “Cayendo”, were last month teased via Ocean’s digital store. Vinyl pre-orders for both songs have since sold out.
The release of two new tracks and confirmation of two more on their way hints that a full album may be imminent.
Ocean’s last record, the critically acclaimed Blonde, was released in 2016 following months of anticipation and teasers.
