Boys Don’t Cry saw a limited-time sale on Oscar Night 2019 on Frank Ocean’s official website, marking the 2-year anniversary of Blonded Radio.

The magazine, originally released in August 2016 in conjunction with Blonde, was made available online only once before, during a 2017 Black Friday sale.

In addition to the magazine, posters were made available as well to commemorate Blonded Radio. The inscription on the back side of the poster reads as follows:

Thanks to all the heads who tuned in to our show. Blonded is about the friendship between feelings, noise, and conversation. Don’t hold your breath for anything in life and live it. For you feel the world around you and see it with more than your eyeballs. If you can’t see anymore than that right now, keep sending out a positive charge everywhere, loud and wide as possible and so will we. Love you.
