Frank Ocean‘s out at Coachella as a result of an ankle injury, but Benny Blanco says his much-maligned performance still left him inspired.

TMZ Hip Hop caught the decorated producer out Wednesday afternoon in Bev Hills, and he offered a much different take from the majority of Coachella attendees who felt Frank’s show was a bust.

Benny says he saw Frank live and thinks the “Channel Orange” singer, hands down, had the best set of Coachella Weekend 1 … and he insists all the internet chatter won’t sway his opinion.

The guy’s worked with Snoop Dogg, SZA and Lizzo in recent months, so his ears have to count for something … even if he’s going against popular opinion. 🤷🏽‍♂️

The quality of Frank’s set might be up for debate, but with his exit from the festival, it’s definitely a one-of-one now.

TMZ Hip Hop broke the story … Frank suffered two fractures and a sprain in his left leg, prompting festival organizers to replace his headlining slot with Blink-182.

So, if you’re like Benny, and were in the desert to see Frank last week … think of it as seeing a unicorn!!! You can argue what condition it was in, but a unicorn nonetheless.
