A phantom.

With only two (albeit flawless) studio albums in the span of 6 years, Frank Ocean has been branded the recluse of the music industry. But we forget that Frank began his career as a ghost, authoring songs for Bieber, Beyonce, Alicia Keys, and John Legend, and he is unlikely to relinquish that role.

Place two wet cups next to one another on your coffee table, and in a matter of minutes you will have a Venn diagram that represents the overlap between the subjective and the objective.

If a panel of video referees is more fit to make those calls, get them jerseys and whistles. Otherwise, let’s reserve review for objective decisions, like the ball crossing the line.
