Frank Ocean was set to collaborate with another major hip-hop legend, Nas. The track, “No Such Thing as White Jesus,” was to appear on Life Is Good. Due to an unfortunate technical problem, the song was lost.

"No Such Thing as White Jesus" was originally planned on being recreated, but deadlines prevented Ocean from making the song from scratch again. In his profile with the New York Times, he broke into the song, singing partial lyrics to what looked like another heartfelt offering. You can read some of the lyrics below, and the rest of the profile here.

"Whatever you do, young king, don’t wind up dead

Young queen, cross your legs,

Put a crown on your head and remove the chain

’Cause even diamond chains are for slaves/Don’t set foot in no penitentiary

And don’t taste the poison Don’t you bail on your families

damn shame.

No Such Thing As White Jesus

Great name for a track but with Ocean's recent revelations as a homosexual. I'll pass

Word I told her Ima have Jungle get us back stage at Rock the Bells this summer and she said she'll let him beat cause he's "fine".

I don't lean. No codeine, promethezine.

I just blow green, pick which bitch to bless the king.

Yea I was there in Union Square for the Untitled signing. Got to meet Nas

R.I.P. Virgin Megastore

yeah man i miss all those stores, especially the Virgin Megastore that use to be in Times Square. Tower Records, Fat Beats near Tribeca, Burkina in Lower East Side (LES), The Music Factory & Beat Street in downtown Brooklyn. those were the days man.

I was one of the first few people on line. Befores NaS started showing up, there was a cypher going on in the line outside while we waited. NaS has all kinds of fans people probably wouldn't expect. Everyone thought that NaS was gonna show up in the front. He was real slick and came in through the back....... The crowd went crazy and started shouting Bravehearts...... I will never forget that day .....

NaS wasn't shaking no one hand unless he knew you. He gave me a fist bump which i was cool with. When he signed my cd he asked me whats my name. I said Phil ..... When he gave it back to me, i looked at it, and it said "iLLphiLL, God bless u King"......

I said "Aight, good looking" i was really happy that week because it was the same week i went to Rock the Bells concert in Long Island. Everyone was smoking weed at that concert

When NaS was finished signing he started to head outside to hop into his Bently. Everyone was taking pics and i remember this funny guy in the crowd who stood out amongst the rest asking NaS to sign his cd. NaS was cool about it and asked dude if he had a pen. Dude had a funny dissapointed look on his face and said he didn't have one. NaS was like "oh well, maybe next time" and continued to head to his Chauffer.

There is still one more major record store still standing. J&R Music world in Lower Manhattan. A lot of music stars been signing their cd's there lately. I was wondering if NaS might be there? :-? Maybe not

Life Is Good
