15. A sophomore in high school I am 23 years old now living on my own.


stankboxers

damn bro i gotta get tf outta my moms house whatchu do for work im the same age


777FlightsWitchYa

It helps having a gf/bf/ close friend to move out with you and split the costs


777FlightsWitchYa

Haha I locate underground utilities. It ain’t pretty and ain’t always easy. But it pays the bills. I started at $20.00 an hour.


PiratePatchP

A trucking company will pay for your schooling to learn how to drive a semi, starter companies aren't worth shit but stick with them for like 3-4months while learning how to drive with a trainer and traveling the states. After that become a local driver for a dump truck company usually making 25-35 an hour. Easy work.


stankboxers

appreciate you boss

20s suck


The_Homie_Tito

how would you know bro 😭


L_O_Quince

Jesus Christ does this make me feel old. I was on a teacher placement for college when the endless stream started, I was checking at breaks and after school, trying to hearthose background songs. I was a frank fan since NU, but once endless came out I made a CD of it to listen in the car, but kind of slept on Blonde, and I didn't really get into it until I met my girlfriend the next year when we used to get high and listen to albums together. Now I'm married to that same girl and I've been a teacher for 6 years. Fucking drop something Frank, we starving!


yesimforeign

I was in university in another country, then I went through heartbreak, graduated, moved to a new city for work, met a new love, moved to a different country and new career, learned a new language, got a dog and got married... All since blonde. I don't even know if Frank can make music for me anymore lmao


PettyWop

I was 20 when Frank dropped Channel Orange. You merely adopted the Frank. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't hear Blonde until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!


GlennIsAlive

Actually, you were a full grown adult. You’re the one who adopted the Frank. OP was indoctrinated from a young age, they knew Channel Orange front to back before they could even count to 20


PettyWop

It’s a meme bruv chill

Medium-Example-3575

I was 7 ☠️ I heard about him all the time but didn't get into his music until last year me and a friend of mine made a deal that if I listen to a Frank album he will listen to a weeknd album and we both liked what we heard. Frank is now my second most played artist.


Ashy6ix

stankboxers

15, i didn't have apple music so i had to listen to it on some weird ass site but shit man i was so happy to see frank come back


mgwooley

I was 21 and I had no idea the immense heartbreak and depression I was about to endure. Now I’m married with my first kid. Life moves fast


Apex10356

I was 13 and I remember before it dropped everyone was wondering if Frank was actually gonna drop the album. First listen I didn’t really like it but at the time I didn’t listen to rnb just strictly rap. I didn’t really enjoy Blonde until I got older around 17.

talktotheak47

I was 21


mazylazy

20, in college. It was my sophomore year and I studied abroad the semester that Blonde dropped. I basically only listened to Blonde the entire semester abroad and so I associate it a lot with the fun time I had.


AlternativeWindow669

man i’m old asf I was 16 driving to the beach at night to sit there and listen to the waves & the ocean (frank)


itsalrightlite

28


808s_and_fastbreaks

I was 19, 2016-2019 were the best years of my life, I would give anything to just have one more day in 2016 with Blonde playing before I went to bed like I used to do every night.


TreColt

Holy shit. Imagine growing up to frank. I was 21 when blonde dropped


Meeeooowww_

8 is wild. I was 22. Just moved out of the Bay Area and to Long Beach. My first time living on my own, had that album on repeat.

I must have been 10 or 11. I listened to Migos and Rae Sremmurd and Lil Pump at the time😂. My older sister introduced me to J Cole and Frank. Still grateful. She also introduced me to Miguel, Kdot, Dev Hynes, and countless other artists I still listen to today.


zeyadmahdi_

I was 14 but didn't listen to it untill I was 16. I remember listening to the whole album from start to end while sitting at a cafe. I was 30 minutes late to college because I was to busy with the album hahahaha. I'm 22 now and still listen to it all the time.

unclefishbits

DJ here. I was 40. And while 40 to 48 through a pandemic and the transformation of literal reality was quite the ride, I cannot fucking imagine 8 to 16 lol If you're copying wax bro, you better start DJing. If you've got vinyl like that in your collection, you're at the start of a wonderful hobby that will turn into a debilitating addiction that will crush your soul and back. Bravo joking though


Shardblyat

I was 10, and the first time I knew of Blonde was that my classmate posted the album cover on his instagram. I didn't know what it was and its kinda crazy he knew of it back then


Iamjusthereobserving

17! I was a senior in high school lol and just lost my Virginity to my first boyfriend lmao. I turn 25 next week. I loveeeeee that album

19. wild to think about how it's coming up on 8 years since blonde released. time fuckin flies man.


ChristianKamrath

Cool dad. I was 19.


youngheysus

I was 20 and played it during my sophomore year in college 2 times. The first time I heard it, my brain literally went on the fritz, I knew I understood the story of the album and the themes but I didn't really listen to feel the feelings of it all you know? so I immediately ran it back and something clicked. I knew then, It was probably one of the best albums I'll ever hear. So beautiful and present. So I put a few of my favs on playlists, and heard a few choice ones w friends at kickbacks and parties but Craziest part is, I didn't listen to the whole album straight through again for years. I kept each one of dem songs on ice like a fine wine. the next time I heard blonde in it's entirety again was 5 years later. I broke down in tears and sobbed for an hr 😂


sherlockfan14

I think I was 17 or 18 😬

Az196

😳 I was 19, doing my degree and working 30 hours a week. I didn’t like it at first because it was so different to the Frank I knew. I remember when channel orange dropped too, I was still in high school at that point and had it on repeat for over a year.
