Or maybe it’s not so deep-perhaps Ocean is just a bored obsessive with money to blow. Maybe it’s a complicated expression of his masculinity-“a deep subconscious straight boy fantasy,” he speculates in his essay-or a testament to the solitude that cars afford those with hermetic tendencies. Maybe Ocean’s auto fixation really is about outrunning demons. On one song, he reminisces about his family’s Acura on another, he recalls the BMW X6 that he owned at a time when “everything sucked.” Another track is simply titled “White Ferrari.” Ocean uses cars as narrative signposts in his lyrics: “Remember when I had that Lexus / No? / Our friendship don’t go back that far,” he sings. Instead of commissioning Kanye West to contribute a verse or a beat, Ocean asked him to write a poem, and had him pose for photographs in a black Lamborghini at a drive-through. One of the magazine’s essays is about Ocean’s habit of running out of gas, and he fills its pages with photographs of vintage BMWs, of engine wreckage and racetracks, and snapshots of black men with luxury-car logos shaved into the backs of their heads. The project is sprawling, but cars offer a through-line. His long-standing fascination with cars is a focal point of Ocean’s ambitiously subdued new work, which has three parts: a forty-five-minute black-and-white video, titled “Endless,” in which Ocean builds a wooden spiral staircase, set to gauzy, lo-fi music a hefty magazine called Boys Don’t Cry, distributed at pop-up shops in four cities and an album-in the loosest sense of the word-called “Blonde.”

During the week that he released his new project, after years of delays, he was filmed street-racing sports cars in Los Angeles with the rappers A$AP Rocky and Tyler, the Creator. “Taxi-driver / Be my shrink for the hour / Leave the meter running,” he sang, on “Bad Religion,” from “channel ORANGE.” “It’s rush hour, so take the streets if you wanna / Just outrun the demons, could you?” Now Ocean has turned to flashier vehicles to help him outrun those demons.

Four years ago, we heard Frank Ocean fretting in the back of a taxi, begging the driver to lend an ear.
