After more than a year away, Frank Ocean is back on Beats 1 today with a brand new episode of Blonded Radio—his expertly curated, on-again, off-again, surprise-laden radio show. Listen to the new episode live below. Unlike previous episodes of Blonded, this episode isn't numbered. It's instead billed as a midterms special. (That's a subtle hint. Go vote.)We'll update this piece as soon as the episode is up on Apple's website for re-streaming.The last time that Ocean broadcast a Blonded Radio episode, in August last year, he dropped in a new song called "Provider."
