Feels like he's concerned that people don't get what he's doing.

He's also choosing this thematic/cinematic lane that most people really just don't care about all that much. He wants his genius points, but people just want great music, to start. Whatever way you feel about the music shouldn't be dependent on if you "get" the thing he's doing and he's leaning really heavy on that.

He seems to want to keep that cryptic thing going, but he's already been too exposed.

Bro, seriously I love how he seems happy and is happy to express himself in all these diff characters he plays but that **** just never hit with me I don't give a damb though I still f with his music so that's the most important thing

AND, he's still killing most if not all of his features. The Spanish pocket the one with Aliyah was a bit weird but I like it still and Tears in the Club and with Doja too

What we need are more NAV collabs... god forbid a Drake or 88Glam track

Really hoping if this is true that "After Life" will be THE album.

Intense, graphic, sexy, euphoric
Provocative, edgy, thought-provoking
Technically and visually stunning
A compelling work of science fiction
A suspenseful еxposé
Cinema like you've nеver seen it before
The exotic, bizarre and beautiful world of "After Life"\

So i am assuming its all good in heaven. We talking mad sex, drugs, strippers, money etc.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Everything depends on his producers

By now it's actually a cut and dry forumla

Legit anytime he works with the producers we know that hit, I'm talking the non pop ones, it's been magic

My only hope is that every single album he's had like entirely diff teams of producers. So I can assume that the next album won't have the same as Dawn which would be a good thing. I'm about done with the 80's stuff, he took it to new heights and as far as he could

 

[Armada]

if this a new trilogy I’m surprised dawn FM the 2nd and not the 3rd Considering it had some serious finality to it since it was all about death and being stuck in purgatory

But maybe the 3rd will be about being fully in the afterlife. Or turning back to the world and not going to the afterlife

 

[checks mcgee]

The sequence of the album flows so well

I almost wanna hear it in its entirety every time

But my favorites switch between sacrifice, out of time, is there someone else, and how can I make you love me

Guess since this flopping… kissland 2 should on its way? No stranger thing, weirdo 80’s sound please and thanks

 

[tay1]

This isn’t flopping. Not even close.

Lol bruh weeknd crying on twitter lowkey after his sales predictions came out

It's definitely not flopping, just subpar. The knee pads can be put away tho.

 

[ballinsam23]

This is the most criticism Weeknd received after a release?

662 knee pads, that’s crazy

 

[illustrayt]

I'm really enjoying the album! This retro sound is really refreshing for me. With that, it also sounds like Blinding Lights could've been on this.

I find myself playing Less Than Zero A LOT!

 

[adobecs4]

You own 40% of them too

 

[a blinkin]

Busy weekend. Still haven’t given this a spin.

 

[checks mcgee]

Ya moms own the other 60

Cool out

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The one song I go back to outside of the 5 track run after Quincy Jones is Less Than Zero

 

[adobecs4]

Ya moms own the other 60

Cool out

Meanwhile ya daddy still a *****. Have a blessed day tho

 

[checks mcgee]

Meanwhile ya daddy still a *****. Have a blessed day tho

I was just tryna help you find your ears

But it looks like you want these hands instead

Good morning to you also

So hostile in here.

At the end of the day it's just opinions.

No need to get worked into a shoot if someone's doesn't agree with yours.
