Frank Ocean might be doing a comeback anytime soon. Precisely, the man behind the "Super Rich Kids" song is making his fans clamor more on whether he will surprise them with a new album.

After a long time of waiting, Frank Ocean's music is still one of the most sought-after albums in the music scene this 2016. Ocean who released singles "Super Rich Kids," "Novocane" and "Thinking About You" stopped releasing new singles since 2013. His absence undoubtedly left many fans questioning whether or not the "Nostalgia Ultra" artist is working on a new one.

Although the 28-year-old RnB singer is always sly in giving his fans information about his comeback, news recently revealed that Ocean currently worked with one of Kanye West's songs entitled "Wolves" from the album "The Life of Pablo."

Ocean was featured in the song after it was played in West's latest fashion gig Yeezy Season 3 event at the Madison Square Garden last week. This new song also involved different artists aside from Ocean. Vic Mensa, Caroline Shaw and Sia also jived in their music prowess in this track for the fashion show.

Ocean working with Kanye West is no surprise, however. He also worked with several artists in the past. Ocean's career transition in music evolved greatly from booking his own track at 12 years-old to becoming a "ghostwriter" to other famed artists such as John Legend, Justin Bieber and Brandy. Along his journey in the industry, the "Channel Orange" musician also managed to juggle "11 jobs" before hitting it big time introducing his own sound in 2011.

What made Ocean a standout artist with a distinct sound is due to his technique called "idiosyncratic in style." Clearly, he made his cut through music producers because of this interesting sound.

While Ocean is still not yet hinting a new album on the horizon, the collaboration with Kanye West is already a good sign that the 28-year-old artist might be working on the studio soon with his own tracks. Fans just have to wait a little more regarding this announcement.
