    Horse shit, he didn't outright say it, but how could that be taking as anything other than a tease for a new album?

    Just stoking the fires

    ...and? People can use context clues, prior rumored/planned release dates for Boy's Dont Cry with new dates and people aren't supposed to expect an album? Frank knows exactly what he's doing, If the album release date is November 13th people are going to lose their damn minds.

    I mean it's his record, he can do whatever he damn well wants to with it, hell these constant delays and meme-ification of BDC will probably lead more sales and apple music subscriptions than it would otherwise, but it gets deflating time after time of delays (It's usually why when people announce a release date for something they stick to it). Wouldn't be surprised if there is massive disappointment if this thing isn't the second coming of Christ.

    Just a really annoying hype cycle for this thing, and fans have every right to be frustrated, whether or not he explicitly announced a date or not.

    Didn't the drake/future tape come out on a Sunday afternoon? From a non sales point I could see putting it out then over a Saturday where more people are active and might not know it drops. Aka I'm still hopeful for this weekend. I don't think he'd stream home improvement stuff for nothing

    Saturday, premiered on Drake's Saturday afternoon Beats1 show and then went on Apple Music immediately after (well, actually while it was still playing on Beats1 IIRC but close enough).

    I'm going to guess that he's probably aiming for November. Though it still makes the Apple Music promo stuff seem real weird now.

    I'm sure he'll release the album when he's ready, I know that sounds crazy but it'll be okay!

    Maybe Boys Don't Cry was never an album. Maybe it was a social experiment featuring cryptic teases to get fans riled up about an album release, only to release nothing, leading to a number of boys literally crying.

    actually reading into context clues (the library card) would lead one to believe the album is still months away...

    records get delayed all the time, its happened repeatedly just in the last year or two for big name artists (kanye, rihanna, drake).

    fans have no right to be frustrated lol he has never announced an actual release date for this, at best he kind of sideways implied it was coming out in either july 2015 or november 2016. everyone's just comically embarrassingly thirsty for this album

    "fans have every right to be frustrated" is such a horrible thing to say and sets an awful precedent for fan entitlement

    He's only got 1 mixtape and 1 album, both are definitely worth listening to in full

    I can certainly understand frustration, but it doesn't seem like it's coming from the horse's mouth or w/e. It doesn't matter anyway lol
