Passion Pit   delivered a somewhat flat performance on SNL this weekend, but as it happens, the SNL stage isn't the most conducive to vibrant or electric performances (save, maybe, Frank Ocean ). The band performed two new songs off of their newest album,  Gossamer , " Take A Walk " and " Carried Away ". Watch the band perform on the sacred SNL stage below.  Connect with  Passion Pit :   Facebook | [...]

loafchickwaterreeds : Frank Ocean & John Mayer - “Pyramids (live on “Saturday Night Live”)”

As Frank Ocean put in his superstar-making performance this weekend on SNL, his incredible run continues with the stunning video for “Pyramids’. Ocean is inebriated in the deepest and darkest ways, as he ventures in a strip club, ride motorcycles, and encounters John Mayer in front of a neon pyramid. Got some goosebumps during that ladder scene as Mayer is shredding away under the dazed Odd Future member. Production value is high on this, and the always mysterious man continues to intrigue us all. Get Channel Orange [...]

Frank Ocean kicked off this season of Saturday Night Live with performances of "Pyramids" and "Thinkin Bout You." With a little assistance from John Mayer on the guitar, Frank proves once again that he's no slouch when it comes to live performances. Still waiting on seeing "Pilot Jones" live. In ... Read More

Frank Ocean's "Pyramids" video was released yesterday. Like a euphoric journey, tracers follow images, as we watch Frank Ocean's trip towards a pyramid stopping along a stripclub, before Ocean has a transcendent experience with John Mayer playing guitar. The seven minute NSFW video (cutting short the nine minute song) is directed by Nabil, who also did videos for Ocean's tracks "Swim Good" and "Novacane." Additionally, Frank Ocean performed "Pyramid" with John Mayer this past weekend for the John Mayer SNL, which again showcased the artist as premier performer (take a look at Frank Ocean's performance [...]

If there is one artist who understands that timing is everything, it is Frank Ocean. After his debut on Saturday Night Live , Ocean released the official music video for "Pyramids." The Nabil -directed clip features John Mayer . Overall the video is quite random with a stylistic intro in a bar setting with "Pink Matter" playing in the background. Ocean continues his journey into the desert where he ends up in a strip club with a lady showing off her Hershey Kisses shaped nipples. John Mayer later plays the [...]

After taking over SNL last night with John Mayer , Frank Ocean has revealed the Nabil-directed video for his track "Pyramids" . Though it's not the full nine-minute album version, it makes up for it with Frank getting wasted ( Frank the tank! Frank the tank! ) at a bar, then shooting it up, and then going for a motorbike ride int he desert to an awesome strip club. Afterwards he meets up with John Mayer who soundtracks his hallucinations with light-emitting guitar licks, [...]

Imagine the dismay of many upon learning that Frank Ocean would be making his SNL debut with the likes of John Mayer. I guess it could've been worse. My only qualm was the direction that Ocean decided to take with "Pyramids" live and the ending. Did we really need to see Mayer do an albeit sweet guitar solo despite the spotlight really being on Frank Ocean to end the song? On the upside, the official video for "Pyramids" looks like Ocean had a crazy visit (are there any other kind) with Hunter S. Thompson in "Fear in [...]

In a year that's gone from one extreme to the other for SNL musical guests, with Lana Del Rey delivering one of the worst performances in the show's history (I'm not even going to link to it, it was that bad), we should be thankful that we have Frank Ocean to prop up the other end of that extreme. The musical man of the year contender made his debut appearance on SNL tonight in what might just cap off one of the best years [...]

Frank Ocean and John Mayer made a stop by SNL this weekend. They teamed up for a couple of amazing performances. This is Pyramids...

Frank Ocean made his Saturday Night Live debut on the September 15 season premiere with two knockout performances. His first song was his now-staple "Thinkin' Bout You," followed by the second half of " Pyramids " (which we predicted !). For both songs, Ocean was in front of a string of old (but functioning) arcade games, accompanied by John Mayer and a couple other non-John Mayer guitarists, as well as a drummer. "Thinkin' Bout You" is not an easy one to sing live, and [...]

Frank Ocean (with his trusty bandana) is in a series of promos for tomorrow's (Sep. 15) season premiere of Saturday Night Live , which will be hosted by Seth MacFarlane. In the above clips, Ocean appears alongside MacFarlane and cast-member Fred Armisen, mainly just standing there (sometimes with his hand over his mouth) as the other two do a couple quick routines. So is he nervous? Shy? Or maybe just holding in laughter? Who cares! He's not on the show to yuk it up with a bunch of comedy nerds, he's there to sing! [...]

The king of cool is scheduled to appear on Saturday Night Live this weekend, which is sure to be yet another exhilarating performance from the Odd Future singer. To promote the event, we are now catching wind of a short clip featuring Frank Ocean alongside Fred Armisen and host Seth MacFarlane. While the two crack jokes, Mr. Ocean sits tight and hardly speaks a word. Watch the three takes of the promo video below, and be sure to catch Frank on Saturday Night Live Sept. 15.
