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

[Maximus Meridius]

C'mon man, y'all in here crying about "mystique".


People love their favorite artist till they blow up. As long as dude keeps making that late night, running through O's music I'm good.

 

[a blinkin]

I feel you. I'm tripping low key. His popularity only means more people are starting to realize what we've known for years; dude's got talent.

Kiss Land needs ta hurry up.

 

[a blinkin]

She's got money for blow oh oh oh

Just look at that nose!

 

[guzzy]

They really need to kiss and make up....

This is ehhh.....unimpressed.

Lulz that cant be the album cover. Aint messing with it.

Did they really pull down odd look remix? As soon as it was tweeted i downloaded it from youtube...glad i have the audio. Track is honestly amazing. Weird to hear him at that higher register for a whole song.

I told myself i wasn't going to listen to belong to the world a lot......i failed...i can't help it....

 

[Gordonson]

They probably took it down because it'll be on iTunes on Tuesday.

Perfect. Right before i head to Spain. Gonna have something nice on repeat.

 

[Gordonson]

Damn man, was really hoping that it would've been August 27th after all.

 

[trilluminated]

look at that smirk on his face on the cover..

he knows exactly what he's doing.

"Odd Look (Remix)" > "Belong To The World"...

Yea he's trolling us all.

I was expecting the cover to be 2 asian chicks on the front end of a bed as the focal point & Abel just off in the corner somewhere or not in sight at all.

Yes, I was bored one day & came up with that concept

. It would've been dope tho.

Hopefully he gives us a deluxe with an alternate cover.

 

[NCtwin]

Must... Not... Listen...

My thoughts exactly.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Smh at how catchy odd look is. I can't stop listening

 

[trilluminated]

the way i see it he's pretty much saying, look at me now *******.. i made it.

"where were you when i needed you 8 months ago."

"bet you miss me now baby, bet you'd kiss me now baby."

"you never thought that i would go this far."

 

[rusty shackelford]

I hope Abel keeps getting more major recognition for his work, dude is one of my favorite artists ever just off the strength and consistent hotness of his work. I'm never worried that he'll put put something lackluster, whoadie could post, "My new song- Infinite booty crack -August 10th", on Twitter and I'd be hype for it. He doesn't fail.

 

[airjordan jb23]

the cover definitely caught me off guard... im not used to seeing him do interviews & be out there like that with album covers (even though the same was done on the trilogy). even more success is on the horizon for him, so im not mad at it at all, but i always took him being mysterious & closed off to go along with his music

 

[nom de guerre]

Damn man, was really hoping that it would've been August 27th after all.

 

[cozypapi]

           Over time the cover will probably grow on people....to me right now it doesn't seem like it'll embodied what kiss land is , should of just made the cover art of the single for the album cover imo

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

That cover will never grow on anyone it's a random pic of dude looking like he dgaf. Lol. It's a cover though I never seen such a reaction over a cover. Not here but other sites. Like why do people care. The mixtape covers were pretty cool to me

 

[mgrand15]

Come on. I'm a giant weeknd Stan but people call out weak covers all the time.

Apparently his cover was influenced by portisheads dummy cover. Still expected something a lot better tho.

Odd life remix is actually amazing

Didn't even cross my mind, but I definitely see it.

Okay, at least it's not just uninspired nonsense. Still easily his worst cover for anything yet.

 

[checks mcgee]

"Odd Look (Remix)" > "Belong To The World"...

Yup. That odd look **** should be his single, I haven't stopped listening to it since it dropped.




And to Blink, I agree with you on missing the whole mystique thing but we all know it wouldn't last with the talent this man has.
The mainstream knows now what they have at hand, just keep that vibe and don't get too poppy is all I ask.

 

[scotthallwithapick]

I don't like that Odd Look song. I'm a credit it to Kavinsky tho so Weeknd can remain undefeated

How? Song got me dancing like micheal in the ol jackson 5 days

and i see the influence i guess....but really just the pictures bar across the cover...

I still think the Kissland cover is kinda dumb...i was hoping for it to be this, or this without The Weeknd written under it
