Read Kanye West's "The McDonald's Man" Poem From Frank Ocean's 'Boy Don't Cry' Zine

As we continue to unravel Frank Ocean's mountain of a release, his accompanying magazine Boys Don't Cry has revealed itself to be more and more of a vivid rosetta stone, unlocking some of the buried meaning laying within. Earlier we excerpted a poem the poem "Tricolors" by Tyler The Creator, and now, as the final freebie for those who missed the pop-up release, here's Kanye West's contribution: a poetic lament on the superhuman pull of McDonalds french fries. Read Kanye West's "The McDonald's Man" down below. Frank Ocean's Blonde and Endless albums are available to hear and see as an Apple Music exclusive.
