Its 17 tracks and has contributors like beyonce, kanye west. It was a video masterpiece. Fans were expecting the album to be called boys dont cry. So they were confused when the album came out. But boys dont cry it turns out is the name of a magazine that was released in conjunction with the album. And so blond was released after an 18 track visual album was released called endless. Reviews about the material are all over. One fan saying this isnt album of the year, its album of the life. Another used the eyes of crying jordan saying the nation listening to blond right now. I didnt get a chance to listen, but apparently hes producing so much material hes making up for the absence. He had four years. He was perfecting it, fan are saying.
