In My Room

“In My Room” is the second single released by Frank Ocean in 2019, following “DHL” released in October. The track came as an unannounced surprise to his fans early Saturday morning. A day later, Frank then dropped the song as a 7" double-sided single; Side A contains the original while Side B is a remix done by Benny Revival. On the track Ocean is braggadocious, dropping lines on jewelry and his excessive spending. The track’s title is taken from the outro, where Ocean describes a libertine encounter with a lover. Fittingly, the single cover art shows Frank sitting in his room. Frank raps over up-beat production credited to Michael Uzowuru, a long-time collaborator of Frank’s responsible for songs such as “Chanel” and “Nights.” Sàngo confirmed he provided some of the track’s drum programming also.
