Frank Ocean interviews Master Mingtong Gu in “blonded ENERGY!”

Blonded Radio returns after a 7-month hiatus with two new interviews. In this episode, titled “blonded ENERGY!,” Frank talks to Master Mingtong Gu about the practice of Qi Gong.

An earlier episode, titled “blonded Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,” featured Frank Ocean conducting an interview with Dr. James Fadiman, an esteemed researcher in psychedelics. The episode also featured a thirty-five-minute score produced by Frank himself.

Following a similar format to his December interview with Wim “The Iceman” Hof, the episode focuses on the interview and score. Unlike that episode, no additional music was released following the discussion. This episode ditches the episode numbering we typically expect, indicating it is a special, like the Xmas and Midterm specials of years past. Frank Ocean’s publicists have described these episodes as the “latest from a series oriented on ‘how to change your mind’.”

UPDATE: A transcript of the interview is available on Genius.com, provided by blonded.blog’s Odysseus.
