As we all know by now, Frank Ocean opened up about his sexuality late Tuesday night via an open letter on his Tumblr page. Since then, many have come out in support of the Odd Future singer, including his own group. Now he has even more people behind his courageous move. Writer Dream Hampton, longtime friend of Jay-Z and author of his book “Decoded”, wrote an open letter to Frank yesterday, praising him for what he’s done. She emailed the letter to Jay (who worked closely with Frank on last year’s Watch The Throne) after writing it, who as Dream tweeted, “put it on his site in minutes. That’s love. Over your shoulder is an army love…” Check out Dream’s letter below. Marisa Mendez

Frank Ocean’s Odd Future Groupmate Tyler, The Creator Reacts To Frank’s Open Letter About His Bisexuality
As we reported a little while ago, Frank Ocean “came out” last night and opened up about his bisexuality. Of course the Twitter world was on FIRE with peoples’ own opinions and feelings on the matter, and one such person was Frank’s Odd Future groupmate, Tyler the Creator. The VERY outspoken rapper has never been one to hold his tongue about anything, joking or seriously, and the topic of his homie’s sexuality is no different. Despite what some may take as rather insensitive jokes, Tyler (in my opinion) showed his support for his friend in his own way. Check out his tweets below and share your thoughts! Marisa Mendez
Live Your Life: Frank Ocean Officially Opens Up About Bisexuality Via Open Letter To Fans
Earlier this week, a UK reporter had the chance to preview Frank Ocean’s debut album Channel Orange before it drops later this month, and wrote a post about what she heard. And what she heard, she said, was Frank singing about a “him”. This led to various reports on the web of Frank Ocean “admitting” to bisexuality, but obviously there were skeptics as this couldn’t be confirmed by our own ears. However, in an act of bravery, Frank took it upon himself to post an open letter via his Tumblr page and open up about the love he shared with a man 4 summers ago. Kudos, Frank! You’re no longer swimming from something bigger than you. You’re going to help so many people with your bravery. Read his open letter in full below. Marisa Mendez
