Brad Pitt has named his favourite Frank Ocean song – find out what it is below.

Pitt – who has had a relationship with Ocean dating back to 2017, where the singer-songwriter brought him out on stage at the FYF Festival – was asked by a fan while out in public what his favourite Frank Ocean song is.

After pondering for a moment, Pitt asked the fan “what’s the one with the ‘s’? The guy’s name?”. The fan asked if it was ‘Seigfried’, with Pitt going on to confirm that it was his favourite song from the singer.

‘Seigfried’ is taken off Frank Ocean’s lauded 2016 effort ‘Blonde’.

In May 2017, Pitt revealed that he had been listening to a lot of Ocean’s music as a way to get through his divorce from Angelina Jolie at the time. He said: “I find this young man so special. Talk about getting to the raw truth. He’s painfully honest. He’s very, very special. I can’t find a bad one.”

During Ocean’s FYF Festival performance later that year, Pitt appeared on the screens at the festival grounds, revealing that he was listening to the performance live from the venue.

Since the release of ‘Blonde’, just a handful of singles including ‘DHL’ and ‘In My Room’ have arrived. Ocean also shared previously unreleased music to soundtrack his radio show celebrating the ten-year anniversary of 2012’s ‘Channel Orange’ back in July last year and also dropped ‘Cayendo’ and ‘Dear April’ on streaming services earlier in 2023, with the tracks previously being vinyl exclusives.

Most recently, Ocean seemingly teased in late July that he was back in the studio, as he uploaded a photo of him tracking on a bass guitar on social media. However, it’s currently unconfirmed if it was an older photograph, or something taken recently. The musician has made no concrete hints at dropping a new project since ‘Blonde’.
