People want you to believe that Kanye West only cares about himself, but his latest stunt is all about helping another artist: Frank Ocean.
The Life of Pablo rapper took to Twitter yesterday evening to show support for Ocean’s new album, Blonde, and implored radio stations “across the globe” to pick a song from the album and “play it at least 10 times a day.”
If anyone at radio really loves music … Come together and pick your favorite Frank Ocean song and play it at least 10 times a day.

Every station across the globe. I Heart. Clear Channel local stations. Satellite. Every station. This will make the world better.

West’s love of Ocean shouldn’t come as a surprise. Frank Ocean came into the spotlight with 2011’s Nostalgia, Ultra, he’s been featured on every Kanye West album since. ’Ye also contributed to Frank’s latest LP.
Kanye’s Saint Pablo tour starts tomorrow in Indianapolis. What are the chances that he brings out Frank as a special guest on at least one of the dates?
