The mouth-dripping R&B mogul, Frank Ocean, has hosted the first Blonded clubnight, named PrEP+. Entitled after the drug that prevents the transmission of HIV, the party’s launched in New York on October 17th.
“PrEP+ is the first in a series of nights; an ongoing safe space made to bring people together and dance. PrEP+ will welcome globally celebrated DJs. The night is named PrEP+ as an homage to what could have been of the 1980s’ NYC club scene if the drug PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) – which can be taken daily to prevent HIV/AIDs for those who are not infected but are at high risk – had been invented in that era.”
“Ticket links have been distributed and the venue will be announced to ticket-holders on the evening of the night. Club hours are 10 pm -late.”
“House rules: No photos or videos are allowed. Consent is mandatory. Zero tolerance for racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, ableism or any form or discrimination The dance floor is for dancing.”
During the party Frank Ocean debuted two new songs:
