I knew this on the first listen, wasn't even much of a contest.

Abel delivered

 

[a blinkin]

Kiss land delivered. Just wonder how it will hold up as time carries on.

You all think it'll still be that deal in a year or two like HoB and Thursday?

 

[josh4523]

It will def hold its own weight in the future. Personally, even though its a bit glossier than its previous releases, there are some songs on there that i will play till im dead. However, i dont think its as a significant as HOB/Thursday/EchoesofSilence are, Those albums are very unique and imho, are genre defying and landmark pieces of music not only within the genre of R&B. I do love that abel keeps progressing and hopefully going into the direction he wants, i feel if you know someone who likes more straightforward easier to digest side of abel, Kiss land would be the one to recommend. Personally i think any good music is easy to digest, whether it be sad, happy, slow, fast, good music is undeniable but lets face it, most people that **** with R&B just **** with pop stuff.

Yea. I've already played it as much as those two in just two months according to iTunes.

Kiss Land finally starting to grow on me

Came in here to post this 

Wasn't feeling it nearly as much as the mixtapes tbh, and I felt ashamed. A few weeks back I gave it a spin in the car and finally made that connection. Haven't stopped playing it since. 

I need to remember to sub the album version of Odd Look for the original version, and I'll be on my way

Also was just thinking about a nice PartyNextDoor collab. 

 

[Gordonson]

I really don't think singers collaborating makes much sense most of the time to be honest, especially two males. It could work out spectacularly, or end up being really forgettable.

As long they keep making great music individually, I'm happy.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Meh. Won't know until we hear it. I'd rather have them try than not

In this case, if they made a track centering on being drugged out and faded, having a wild night, I don't see how it would hurt to try

 

[henz0]

AOTY.

 

[cozypapi]

At the end of the day I still go back to playin Professional 20 times in a row before I finally let Kissland run all the way through.

   Song starts off so perfect "it's ideallllll you need someone to tell you how to feelllll" 

 and then he basically describes every girl I know on instagram who get over 200+ plus like and nobody know them in person " so you're somebody nowwwwwww what's a somebody in a nobody town...I don't think you even know itttt" 

 

[a blinkin]

Kissland opens up with so much realness...

 

[ii flash ii]

Anyone have the more recent Weeknd songs/features on mp3?

 

[hymen man]

So finally got around to hearing 'Devil May Cry'

Abel just TOO good and in top form right now.

Can't wait for his next release, though I'm still playing KL heavy...can never have enough new music from this dude.

 

[yotk13]

This and YEEZUS are the only 2 albums that dropped this year that I still bump consistently

 

[la kb24]

Ok after two weeks of not bumping this in the truck I put it back on and its like the first time i heard it

 

[airjordan jb23]

kiss land is still holding up nice... his projects age so well

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

his projects age so well

Echoes of silence is getting more play now that when it drop..

I think I'm comfortable enough in this thread to share this now. I made it some time ago, but I didn't want to seem like I was spamming the thread.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

 

[delete1234]

Haven't listen to KL in forever

My god, I've been fronting on "Pretty" for too long :x such a good song I always used to skip

Finally, I knew this day would come...

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

The video made me appreciate pretty..

 

[Mister Meaner]

Wonder how long it'll take before his next project is underway. When I saw him at Radio City, he announced that he's be working on new music in NYC.

4 classics (yes, classics) under his belt already. I had a bit of free time as of late and went through the mixtapes & KL. Gets better with time.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I agree everything to this point is classic. I'm hyped he has plans for new material already

 

[awwsome]

Like Kiss Land a lot but its not a classic IMO

HOB/Thursday/EOS all classics though
