Miguel Vs. Frank Ocean

I am personally a fan of both of these guys music. I think they are both keeping some form of "R & B" in existence. But IF I had to choose who I prefer, I'd have to go with Miguel, just because his sound is a lot bigger & broader imo. He's also a better singer than Frank. Who's music do you prefer?

Miguel

Frank Ocean

Both are good, but I'm picking Frank Ocean. Kaleidoscope Dream might be excellent though.

Damn this is hard. If had to choose one I guess I had to go with.....Miguel. Some of Franks songs from channel orange are good like thinkin bout you, pyramids, pilot Jones, but some of them not so much.

I've heard some of Frank's stuff and while it's not bad, I can get into Miguel's music much more. So I pick Miguel.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I thought they were actually having a feud before clicking for some reason. lol

But anyway, Miguel's cool but I'd go with Mr. Ocean for the time being.

I would consider myself a Miguel fan.

I gave Frank a try, I think the org may have hyped him up too much (for me) but he is still a good artist. I don't think I'm into his form of r&b.

I really dont care for either of them but between the two... I would pick Frank because his a good story teller and I like more songs by him than Miguel. Miguels songs to me appear rather generic which is why I am surprise you even like them. razz and even some songs I havent heard on the radio by him besides maybe one or two... nothing grabs me.

Understood. Frank is what I consider an alternative artist.

Miguel. I dont like Frank Ocean. Dont feel his voice, dont feel his songs. Only his lyrics are good. But im more a melody and groove kinda guy. Dont even know whats so 'r&b' bout him. Yeah that song fertilizer is kinda nice.

Miguel performed live at South Beach this past New Years Eve and that was the worst show I've seen/heard.

That cat is definitely not ready 4 the live circuit.

Franks is a much better live performer.

Well, Frank is the artsy fartsy one. He makes "deep, meaningful" music that orgers just love. lol

I don't know if Miguel writes his own stuff or not, but it's not as "deep" as Mr. Ocean. Miguel definitely has the better voice, and "Adorn" is my jam. I like a couple songs from Frank's new CD, but to me he can't sing and is over-hyped to the max.

I'll go with Miguel, who's still in the closet. evillol
