Tyler, the Creator helped Frank Ocean celebrate 'Blonde' release in a delicious way

Happy belated born day, Blonde!

The release of Frank Ocean's Blonde is a cause for celebration to the fans who waited four years for an album from the elusive singer.

But clearly, it's Ocean who should be celebrating the most after a successful rollout of a visual film, music video, studio album and, for good measure, magazine. and it looks like he got some help from longtime friend and collaborator Tyler, the Creator.

"Birthday cake for Blonde. Thanks Tyler," the caption read, with a smiley face thrown in. Ocean and Tyler were both affiliated with Odd Future, a provocative rap collective founded in 2007 whose members have since branched out into music, television, design and more.

Ocean's recent projects have already been met with critical acclaim from both the music media and his peers, including Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar. You can read Mashable's track-by-track analysis here.
