The Full Credits to Frank Ocean's 'Blonde' Include Kanye and Beyoncé

Frank Ocean released his highly-anticipated album Blonde back in August in an online-only drop. Accompanying the online album release was a physical Boys Don’t Cry zine, which was made available for free in select cities. The zine listed out all the contributors and credits to the Blonde album, which included Beyoncé, Kanye West and more. However, what they did for the album wasn’t revealed.

Fast forward to Black Friday and Frank Ocean released Blonde on vinyl and CD with all the credits listed. As it turns out, Beyoncé contributed additional vocals to “Pink + White” while Kanye West is listed as a co-writer on “White Ferrari.” Dirty Projectors’ ex-member Amber Coffman is listed for additional vocals on “Nikes,” and Yung Lean is a featured vocalist on “Godspeed.” View the full list of features below.
