Frank Ocean performed for the first time this year last night at the Met Ball. Prior to the set at the Met Gala party, he had not taken the stage since the Odd Future Carnival last fall.

Backed by an all-female orchestra with some additional instrumentalists, Frank performed "Super Rich Kids" and "Wiseman." The gala's stage was set just in front of the Temple of Dendur. His mother Katonya was his guest.
