Frank is a member of Odd Future and has a few joints on the new Kanye/Jay-Z album “Watch The Throne”. We’re so happy for Frank (formerly “Lonny Breaux”)! His talent is undeniable.
Other Frank/Dapo songs include “Bigger” (Justin Bieber’s MY WORLD), “Quickly” (John Legend’s EVOLVER featuring Brandy). and a handful of songs on Frank’s mixed tape, The Lonny Breaux Collection.
