The Hip Hop and R&B community has been buzzing after an open letter written by Frank Ocean on Tumblr sent social media into a frenzy.

The “Thinking Bout You” singer revealed on Independence Day that his first love was a man. But the “recent” revelation may have simply been old news.

Ocean performed songs from his upcoming debut album “Channel Orange” in April. One of his songs “Forest Gump” contains lyrics of the singer professing his love for men.

On the song, he sings, “My fingertips and my lips, they burn from the cigarettes, Forrest Gump/You run my mind, boy/ Running ’round my mind, boy/ Forrest Gump. I remember you/ This is love, know it’s true/ I won’t forget you.”

Will Ocean be successful penning love songs for the same sex? Only time will tell.

Check out video of Ocean performing his song “Forest Gump” below.
