Losers is my least liked song on the album so far. Its lyrics are pretty silly.
the production choice is just fukking odd. :what:

it really is kinda weird how disconjointed the album is in general tho. i feel like you could re-arrange the rest of the tracks in a way that would make the album way more listenable than the way it is now, but losers still sticks out like a sore thumb.

On first listen I'm scared this might be the first Weeknd album I don't buy. :sadcam: hopefully it grows.

I been two steppin to that shyt all day. Gotdamn.

I can see people not fukking with this but I do, I like it...it's def different and if you want him to sound like the cat before the fame I can see why it ain't hittin you right but I like his progression. I just wish I hadn't heard some of these joints before hand.

If I got to experience this album without hearing the hills, earned it and often beforehand those joints would have blown me away. There's a handfull of other dope cuts besides those but since they are the stand outs and have already gotten heavy spins by many of the people who are listening the entire product isn't gonna come off as potent as it usually would have.

I'm disappointed

I understand he has to change his sound but some of the songs are just so blatant attempts at being hits its not even funny a lot of the beats are trash and the lyrics are just really terrible and he is really usually good at making lyrics but it does not sound like he wrote most of this album
