"She" is a song by the American rapper Tyler, the Creator featuring the fellow American singer Frank Ocean. The song was written by Ocean and Tyler and produced by Tyler himself, it was released on May 10, 2011 as the fourth single from Tyler's studio album Goblin.
The song is written from the perspective of an obsessive lover who stalks and watches a woman while she sleeps. Lyrically, the song explores dark themes of necrophilia, stalking, and obsession. The song received critical acclaim from music critics who praised Ocean's hook, though the subject matter was often noted as questionable in nature and content.
A music video for the single was released on June 3, 2011 on the Odd Future YouTube channel. It was directed by Tyler himself and features Ocean. The video contains black humor and was noted for approaching its subject matter in a satirical, tongue-in-cheek manner. Both Tyler and Frank Ocean would often perform the song together during their various tours and was notably performed at the April 2011 Coachella Music Festival.
