End/Golden Girl Frank Ocean (Ft. Tyler, The Creator) – End/Golden Girl

Song Bio 7 Contributors ?

What is this?

To learn more about participating in the Genius Editorial project, check out the contributor guidelines.

“End” serves as the closer to Frank Ocean’s debut studio album channel ORANGE on streaming services, while the CD version includes the hidden track “Golden Girl,” featuring Tyler, The Creator, beginning at the 3:44 minute mark of the song.

“End” samples a scene from the 2006 film ATL, in which the main characters, Rashad (T.I.) & New New (Lauren London), are exchanging conversation in a car late at night, with the ambient sounds of pouring rain & car chimes in the background. Ocean layers this with his song unreleased song “Voodoo,” previously posted to Tumblr on January 29, 2012. The chorus of “Voodoo” interpolates the classic African American spiritual “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands,” first published in 1927.

Interestingly, the scene from ATL ends with Rashad & New New kissing in a parked car with Aaliyah’s 1994 cover “At Your Best (You Are Love)” playing on the radio. “End” closes out the digital release of the 2012 channel ORANGE sampling this scene, after which, Ocean would not return with an official release until the 2016 visual album Endless, which opens with the track “At Your Best (You Are Love),” a tribute to Aaliyah.

Tyler, The Creator’s verse is completely different from the rest of “Golden Girl” and is likely Tyler’s take on the song. While still an overall positive message, there are still negative aspects to this relationship, should it go sour.

At the end of “Golden Girl,” the sound of the song changing can be heard. The song gets quieter as if the listener wanted to either change the station or turn the radio off because they didn’t like how the song changed when Tyler started rapping. The song eventually dies down, but not before a last laugh track can be heard.
