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

[ii flash ii]

Album is definitely worth another listen... Im actually feeling it

Only bad thing is that I feel like the songs dont flow together

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I can see why doc don't support this album

Damb, they were supposed to be byke too

Doc came into the studio and Weeknd played some new **** and Doc did the Abe Simpson gif 

 

 

[awwsome]

I can see why doc don't support this album

He was 100% against going pop, I'm sad that they'll probably never make music again, they still had levels they didn't hit.

"Shout my ***** Doc that's a mentor".

"Shout my ***** Doc that's a mentor".

"But now the word out that we back 

on some young Quincy Jones dark skin Michael Jackson"

 

[FreshLeeLA]

 
stop it...

having a drake feature would just be more of a commercial/mainstream reach

not needed.

How is it a reach when they've collaborated on his earlier projects?!

Zone is not a reflection of his earlier sound? Crew Love?

 

[delete1234]

Drake wasn't the reason live for was bad that's all on Abel. Chorus was buns. Started off like it was gonna be fire too

Anyone got a link?

Would appreciate it.

Fams just thinking about the possible doc/ill produced tracks Abel might have sitting in a computer somewhere that where made some time ago

. On some Trilogy type flow. What if he did this more fast paced album just to get him on some strong ground. Then he releases a whole bunch of savagery in a year or so

That's all we can hope for tbh

I'm OK with this mainstream stuff but it isn't going to be getting plays far into the future

 

[broncos19dm]

Saw this on Twitter 

.

"Does it bother you that Abel went mainstream?"

 

[QU!K]

I don't wanna say this, but I kinda hope this flops harder than Kissland so he can go back to what he's best at

 

[Mister Meaner]

Yea, there's no chance this album flops in terms of sales at least.

I haven't listened yet, but I think the best thing OG Weeknd fans can do is be as loud as can be when voicing their disappointment in this new direction.

 

[awwsome]

No way in hell, album will be #1 and has a good chance to go platinum regardless of the actual quality.

 

[Belgium]

I've listened to the album in full a few times now. It's a great pop album, but it's not a great Weeknd album, if that makes sense.

I'm not even mad at the pop sound, I just feel like the album lacks growth. Lyrically it's a step down from Kissland and overall it's just not nearly as cohesive as his previous work, especially compared to KL.

Kissland is pretty much my favorite body of work from him. 

 

[Rumble Gang]

Lol at this track flopping. Only reason KissLand...flopped??... Is because he still wasn't well known as he is now. I believe someone said I forget who that when he was starting to be more well known with the Fifty Shades tracks and collabs with Ariana etc, that Trilogy made some extra sales. All about you being well known.

I'm from NJ and Fetty Wap lived 45min from me. I never heard of dude until his first big hit and thats when I found out he's from NJ. Now everybody knows him

 

[BranchLifestyle]

Yeah this ish aint floppin'

The mainstream fans got his back. New T-Swizzy-type fans. Shades of grey-type fans.

SMH.

Nah, he ain't going plat. I think ya'll overestimating this new fanbase ya'll think he has.

 

[franchise3]

There is no way. Dude is going at least 100K right off the bat. Higher most likely.

 

[awwsome]

Nah, he ain't going plat. I think ya'll overestimating this new fanbase ya'll think he has.

He's selling out arena's and has had 3 songs in the top 10 with the #1 song in the world.

Ain't nobody overestimating anything b.

 

[tay1]

Easily 100K. I'm gonna say 120K - 170K

 

[broncos19dm]

I see this doing numbers.
