Singer-songwriter John Mayer has praised hitmaker Frank Ocean for his impressive creativity and described him as having an "interesting" mind.

Speaking to Rolling Stone magazine about Ocean's talent and personality, the 'Clarity' star confessed that his friend is very 'deep' and he hopes he can find another person on his level to be with"

"I love Frank's stuff. Frank is such an interesting, deep, touched, wonderful guy. They don't make a lot of other Frank Oceans, and the guy is looking for another."

"And the way that his mind works is craving the same frequency that he's able to communicate on, and I think he's just searching for that kind of depth that he has inside of himself in someone else. He's fascinating to me. He's so great."

Ocean made headlines earlier this week after it was revealed that he got involved in a fight with Chris Brown, in which he was called a "f**got" by the 'Don't Wake Me Up' sensation.
