UPDATE: February 5, 2018 1:05 p.m. EST: Frank Ocean's Tumblr has apparently been hacked, strongly suggesting that the posts about new music were not authentic and unauthorized. A post written since our initial report offers "unreleased Frank songs" for purchase, and a second post read that the Frank Ocean/SZA/Andre 3000 song will be leaked if an Instagram post gets 25,000 likes. All four posts shared on Tuesday have been deleted. Find a screencap of the final two posts below:

Previously: A new post on Frank Ocean's official Tumblr suggests the artist may be sharing new music on March 1, and the new release could feature André 3000, SZA, and Kendrick Lamar. Check out the post here. It reads "March 1st... SOLANA + KL + ANDRE... HERE FOR THE BEANS.” (SZA's full name is Solána Imani Rowe).

A second, more cryptic post reads "? (2019) ? (2019) ? (2020)." Fans speculated online that it could be teasing the release of two new projects in 2019 and a third in 2020.

News of a possibly impending SZA collaboration comes after Ocean shared a snippet of his cover of SZA's "The Weekend."
