On "Pilot Jones" Ocean Discusses The Topic Of First Love And Compares It With A Drug By Using The Double Entendre Pilot Jones. This Is Because A Pilot Is One Who Drives Or Steers Likening How Lovers Are “jonesing” Or Craving Each Other To A Pilot That Is Driving Them Toward Each Other. Alternatively A Pilot Episode Is The First In Any Line Of A TV Series Hinting At This Being A First Love. Further Adding To This Extended Metaphor Is That The First Love He Discusses In The Song May Or May Not Smoke Frequently So He Could Be Using Drugs As An Easy Comparison To The Love That They Share. "It’s Really Interesting That He Uses Seed Ideas Or Tools To Write That Really Don’t Have Anything To Do With The Song. It’s Just A Way For Him To Access Himself And Then The Song Comes Out And Then The Track Is Built Around What He Writes." Rick Rubin In Conversation With Jeff Himmelman. "I Was Like ‘I Gotta Get This Song Out.’ I Always Knew The Track Would Have To Change." Frank Ocean In Conversation With Jeff Himmelman.
