Frank Ocean’s ‘Blonde’ album credits include Rostam Batmanglij, Jamie xx and Tyler, the Creator

Last month’s release also credits The Beatles and Elliott Smith.

Frank Ocean’s ‘Blonde’ album still has an air of mystery hanging around it.

Full credits for the album’s 17 tracks have yet to be revealed, although more details have been shed by ASCAP, a database tracking songwriting royalties.

Several credits were already widely known - such as Kendrick Lamar’s appearance on ‘Skyline To’ and Elliott Smith lyrics appearing on ‘Seigfried’ - but these additional details reveal the involvement of ex-Vampire Weekend member Rostam Batmanglij, plus Jamie xx and Tyler, the Creator.

Collaborators have yet to be revealed for ‘Self Control’, ‘Good Guy’, ’Solo (Reprise)’, ‘Facebook Story’ and ‘Close To You’.
