Singer Frank Ocean didn't disappoint as the musical guest on the season premiere of Saturday Night Live's 38th season.

Ocean, introduced by host Seth MacFarlane, first sang his contemplative hit "Thinkin' About You," while surrounded by his band and an assortment of arcade games. For his second song, Ocean performed "Pyramids," with a little assist by John Mayer. Watch both performances below.

In July, Ocean blogged about a same-sex relationship of his, leading to an explosion of media attention. Read our cover story about the 24-year-old artist's effect on the hip-hop and R&B worlds.
