READ MORE: Frank Ocean’s Coachella 2023 headline performance – the view from the crowd Speculation began when an Instagram account, believed to be a private one – or a “finsta”, as known by the app’s users – belonging to the singer was discovered by fans.

The account – @kikiboyyyyyyy – features a profile picture of Michael Jordan holding up three fingers, which some are interpreting as Ocean hinting at a third album (with the idea that 2016’s ‘Endless’ doesn’t count as it was released as a “visual” album). According the Instagram, the account was opened in March 2025 and only has eight followers, with one being Ocean’s public profile, @Blonded. SZA is also a follower, alongside producer Michael Uzowuru, who contributed to ‘ Blonde ‘ and told the New York Times last year that he and Ocean had been working on new music.



Others include Sean Matsukawa, an audio engineer and producer who has worked with SZA, Kendrick Lamar , Ariana Grande and the emerging musician girlsweetvoiced. Further theories arose earlier this week when a billboard that says “Kiki Boy 2025” was reportedly spotted in Coachella , just as the Californian festival is set to kick off its first weekend.
