Fans have been quick to infer that the smooth vocals belong to Ocean, sparking excitement about the possibility of new music from the elusive artist.
Romance Rumors Spark Fan Theories
While neither Ocean or Talbott have confirmed their relationship, rumors have been swirling for months. According to Billboard, speculation began when the pair was spotted together at a series of public events, including a gallery opening in Los Angeles. Talbott has also shared moments with Ocean on his social media accounts, leading fans to believe they are romantically involved.

Fans React to the Snippet
Fans of Ocean have been starved for new music since the release of his highly praised 2016 album, “Blonde.” Though he has released a few singles since then, a full-length album has remained out of reach.
“I can’t believe Frank Ocean just casually dropped a snippet in his rumored boyfriend’s video,” one fan tweeted. “We’ve been waiting for so long, and now we get this?”
Another user wrote, “If that really is Frank Ocean singing, I’m losing my mind. We need an album ASAP.”
Hope for New Tracks
Even though Ocean keeps his personal life and music private, fans are still hopeful about the possibility of a new album. According to Rolling Stone, sources close to the artist have hinted that he has been quietly working on new material, but no official announcements have been made.
For now, the unexpected snippet has renewed the public’s interest in both Ocean’s music and his rumored romance with Talbott. Fans can only wait and guess as they look for more hints in the couple’s public appearances and social media updates.
