Even Apple Music employees are waiting on Frank Ocean's new album

Another rumored Frank Ocean release date of "Boys Don't Cry" has turned into another way we have all been set up for disappointment, but it turns out the internet isn't the only one suffering.
Noisey's own Ryan Bassil decided to take matters into his own hands and looked straight towards the reported source, Apple Music, to get some answers. Obviously, he was praying that the guidelines for customer service and motto to make the customer happy might earn him a sliver of hope as to when we can expect new Frank.
When pressed for information, Apple Music's customer service rep, Erica, explained that the company is waiting on Frank just like the rest of us. "We are waiting on the artist," she revealed before adding, "I would just advise to give it a little more time." From there, the two dipped into a friendly exchange about being equally anxious for the new project, which Erica said she hopes arrives soon, or more accurately, "like today."
If you've been painstakingly paying attention to the few Frank details that have been emerging this week like us, you are probably already aware that Frank got all of us prematurely excited with a livestream that later transitioned into a video of Frank sawing away at wood just because.
Pretty much everyone that has worked with Frank in any capacity has been questioned by the internet and even home improvement legend Bob Vila has weighed in. Even Snapchat has gotten involved by dropping its own set of Frank Ocean-themed filters meant to nudge Frank towards a release. An anonymous New York Times source let everyone know that the album would reportedly be dropping as an Apple Music exclusive on August 5, but we are well into the day, and there is still no sign of new Frank anywhere.
It's clear we are all in this pain together and only Frank Ocean can save us.
