@historyinmemes Frank Ocean knocks out Chris Brown's bodyguard (1/28/2013)
Frank Ocean's live performance on Saturday Night Live (SNL) in 2012 certainly made waves, but it's a bit of an overstatement to say he "broke the internet." However, his performance was notable for several reasons. On September 15, 2012, Frank Ocean appeared as the musical guest on the 38th season premiere of SNL. He performed two songs from his critically acclaimed album "Channel Orange": "Thinkin Bout You" and "Pyramids." The latter performance was particularly noteworthy for featuring guest guitarist John Mayer. The performances were well-received by critics and audiences alike, with many praising Ocean's unique blend of R&B, soul, and experimental pop. Additionally, his appearance on SNL helped to further solidify his status as a rising star in the music industry. While it's not accurate to say he "broke the internet" in the sense of causing a massive, widespread disruption, his SNL performance was a significant moment that garnered a lot of attention and praise. #frankocean
