The Weeknd Thread ( "Hurry Up Tomorrow" Coming Soon)

[northoaklandfc]

High For This is one of the greatest album intros in the history of contemporary music imo.

It's a phenomenal song, but in full context taking everything into account from timing, it being the literal start of Abel's career as The Weekend, to the influence that spread after, to the symbolism, to it being the essence Abel's early music, it's an even better intro.

It's a song that's astronomically bigger than the sum of its parts.

When those chords first come in at 4:13. Still.

You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar.

 

[Nawzlew]

hope he partner up with uniqlo or something

so we can still get that cheaper weeknd gear

 

[broncos19dm]

That’d be tight!

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Just saw an unreleased track with he and trippie redd in the drake thread

Wtf

If he just had tracks and features like that I'd be content

 

[broncos19dm]

Trippie Redd, Abel, and Drake? Interesting

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Unfortunately drake isn't on that unreleased track just trippie

 

[Mister Meaner]

Comments saying that ain't eem Abel on the track.

$60 for a long sleeve shirt my *** my *****.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Smh that's a disappointment about the trippie track

 

[yourboy]

These snippets sound mad nice, more of the darker Abel.

But we know not to get our hopes up

 

[Rumble Gang]

As per The Weeknd bible those snippets are from work in 2014. Nothing new . And the man won’t release it. Also nothing new

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The world ain't never getting that free flowing sound back

That's the main difference I think in his old sound vs new. Also his curses and vulgar word choice seem forced af now lol

 

[a blinkin]

Now they seem forced?

“I make alladem swallow” 59 times was cool to you all, though.

Way to pick and choose tho hahahaha plus I never said I liked that swallow part lol. Although if he didn't repeat it 100 times it would have been fine to me

 

[Rumble Gang]

“They all feel the same...”

Fam was fresh off KL.. he could do no wrong at the time

 

[Mister Meaner]

Just gimme another 9 unfinished tracks like the last leak and I'll be content. We ain't getting that vibe no mo'.
