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

[Vincent Van Goat]

Wouldn't mind a Remember me Pt 2.

Let's see if Wiz can actually not get edited off this time

 

[Narcissist]

I think it'll be an alright track but probably won't come close to Remember You. Hopefully I'm wrong though.

Been listening to the album the past few days, and after initially being disappointed, I LOVE this album. Not quite HOB, but is comparable to Thursday and of course better than DOS and KL.

Tell Your Friends is legendary 

 Not one single flaw on that joint. Losers and Angel are my next favorite tracks, the instrumental on Losers is fire too.

Hell, even Often has grown on me, and I couldn't stand it when I first heard it. 

Only song I skip is As You Are, because it is a ******* trash song. Should've including KOTF instead of that.

I feel like folks are just trying to invent the most alternative posts

Go with the flow here but go totally against the grain there

God damn If Abel was a playwright it'll be nothing be Greek Tragedies. The beginning of the album talking about a savage life only because he's cancerous to everyone he touches while being told to not bother trying. But still strives onward to find a cure to the poison he carries along. Only to find he'll never find a cure. He's decided to drive off the cliff but rather then making it a miserable view he'll be content with seeing a few sights along the way. Angel is such a perfect way to end the album with her reply back of repeating his words. Same cliff, different cars.

/random rant. I just had a moment

 

[a blinkin]

That was beautiful.

-insert the rock hand clap gif

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Very impressed at how good this album is from the intro to outro. You can really hear the King of Pop influence on the majority of the tracks. This album seems more commercial and mainstream but it sounds refreshing and new. Abel is the best R&B artist doing it today. Sorry Miguel, Abel is the king right now.

 

[MetalMario]

That was brought on after a deep listen to Angel lol

Wiz needs to pull a Lil Wayne and just stay off the track, but keep it on the album.

 

[BranchLifestyle]

Sigh at this album.

Listened to it 2x, was meh. Trying to get myself to put it on my phone and get it on my headphones...just haven't gotten to it. Didn't excite me, ish is bland as hell.

Don't get me wrong, happy for Abel.

At least this thread is comedy.

 

[QU!K]

Don't drink the Koolaid breh

Album is subpar

 

[illicit305]

[scotthallwithapick]

Don't drink the Koolaid breh

Ha Ha. You really don't want no one to like this album bruh.

 

[QU!K]

PS

I like Pray 4 Love

Fight me

Now where is that new disclosure track to help me forget about Losers

 

[awwsome]

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

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

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

Ain't nobody overestimating anything b.

Welp

Also gotta give credit where it's due.

Predicting 350k+ sold first week. The hype is real.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

So what are the projections? From what I'm reading, BBTM comes in second to Drake's IYRTITL in terms of sales in the first week for 2015

I also read that as of August Drake's album hit a million sold, which came out in FEB, so about 6 months

 

[scotthallwithapick]

402K or 412K I believe

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

402K or 412K I believe

Yeah 412K. So you guys think he'll hit platinum by say FEB or March?

 

[a blinkin]

If he's able to work the radio/singles angle, I'm sure I'll go platinum in time.

 

[stick]

If his next single is In The Night that'll move another 100k copies.

this


and what is crazy is drakes album was free. Do the downloads count toward the "sales". It dropped as a mixtape at first then he started charging right?

 

[a blinkin]

IYRTITL was free? I could've sworn it was an iTunes exclusive for like $12.
