Waiting for Frank Ocean in Cairo

<p>Weaving the lyrics of Frank Ocean's discography Hazem Fahmy's <em>Waiting for Frank Ocean in Cairo</em> is a poetic account of four years of shuffling a catalogue of the constant in-betweenness of being caught in the middle of two places across an ocean. Exploring themes of family gender and the attempt to find meaning outside the confines of the state Fahmy's sophomore collection uses the singer's iconic music and persona as a guidepost to a firmer understanding of the self and the spaces that define it.</p>
