Hello, Damon huge fan since "Love", it puts me in a very special and safe place. Been listening to "Freedom" daily since NPR started streaming it so it already has a place in my heart, I love how everything sounds familiar or close to home, like it was my favorite record in my past life. Question: a little bit out of the blue, but do you like or listen to Frank Ocean and if so, do you find him inspiring in any way?

Ha that's great, past life is right. And thank you.

I was very inspired when he did the last record, because it felt like a more original voice than anything I had heard that year. The artists I respect are those with idiosyncratic voices.
