Almost done. On first listen it isnt perfect,couple misssteps with the production but overall very solid.

Songs like tell your friends and shameless feel like natural progression and are fukking great. If all you want from weeknd is hob over and over this isnt for you. This album definitely is more pop than his earlier work.:yeshrug:

Same people that been saying hes wack for months are the same people pretending theyre dissapointed with the album.

On first listen Im giving it a 8/10. But that could go up or down on repeated listens.

I don't think that's the case. The quality of the nikkas music is not as good. Nobody is doing this with ocean or Kendrick Lamar
They still underground/unknown appeal. Weeknd is on the radio every other song.

I don't know why people didn't expect the sound to change, he's in a different tax bracket and on a totally different journey. There's not a lot of darkness when you're making six figures a show. His whole last album was dark and discussed dealing with fame. He's on to the next. Gonna give it a listen when I get in later.

nikkas mad that he switched his sound
shut up
just shut up
He gave us 3 fukking free albums.
The fukk yall want more than him?
PLus he could have went a lil more "pop"(idk im listening to it right now just started) to get that fanbase and then he'll release his next album closer to the styles of his last 3 mixtapes when he got them people on lock.

I mean shyt he got the number one song in the country talking about fukking cocaine and most of the population don't KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT :russ:
XO Anti simp king he's still not loving these hoes so fukk ya :wow:

Ooh, said you wanna be good but you couldn't keep your composure
Ooh, said you wanna be good but you're begging me to come over
Ooh, come over
Ooh, saying who's gonna fukk you like me? Yeah
I don't wanna hurt you but you live for the pain
I'm not tryna say it but it's what you became
You want me to fix you but it's never enough
That's why you always call me cause you're scared to be loved
But I'll always be there for you, I'll always be there for you
I'll always be there for you, girl I have no shame
I'll always be there for you, I'll always be there for you
I'll always be there for you, girl I have no shame

:ohlawd:

Used to hate attention, now I pull up in that wagon
I was broken, I was broke, I was so broke
I used to roam around the town when I was homeless
Me and Lamar would rob a nikka for his Jordans
And flip it just to get these hoes another nose fix
Now we get faded when we want girl, we got choices
Leave 'em on the fukking table, we got choices
If they wanna fukk my nikkas, they got choices
They told me not to fall in love, that shyt is pointless

Sing that pop shyt abel :troll:
