In the leadup to "Boys Don't Cry," Ocean's second studio album, the elusive singer has stoked the hype by broadcasting a looping video stream on his website. In the stream, Ocean has been deliberately constructing some sort of structure by table-sawing, spray-painting, and arranging slabs of wood since the start of last week.
To the dismay of many, though, the looping video currently shows only a desolate warehouse, and there's still no sign of "Boys Don't Cry" on the immediate horizon.
Now, as some outlets are pointing toward a possible November release for the album - which Ocean cryptically alluded to on his website with a "due date" library slip last month - the internet pandemonium (and fan despondency) continues.
Read on to see some of the best reactions to Ocean's album delay.
