Here's what Williams said about Ocean: \"He’s super talented. To me he’s like the Black James Taylor. He’s lyrical—he’s got a great perspective and super sick melodies. I haven’t seen anybody bob and weave through chords with such catchy melodies in a long time—that’s why I liked working with him.”", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
