The Dj at this club I was at played 'Wicked Games' as the closing song, at like 2 Am a few months ago, I was surprised, I wanted to go tell that dude thanks, perfect song for the environment, but everyone is so out of it by that point, doubt they could appreciate it's lyrics.

Who breakin down lyrics at 2 am in the club??

Rihanna and Weeknd could be dope, if she does her 'Rated R', style. But, yeah, people like Nikki Minaj, Busta Rhymes, and Lil Wayne, aren't qualified to be on a Weeknd track, or album.

Have you heard Wayne? Lately....dude is not fit to be on his own track. There are rappers I could see with the Weeknd, actual songs, but not hooks. I think Budden could pull it off, but Wayne? Nah. Maybe years ago....2007, or something, but he's washed.

:rudy:

you realize homie sounded like this 2 years ago right?

When She Turns 18 - Christian TV (LYRICS) - YouTube

then the Weeknd gets some buzz and all of a sudden he gets a new name and new sound complete with the artistic vowel drops (weeknd=weekend, jmsn=jameson) dark depressing lyrics, trip hoppy beats and heavy echo

JMSN - Alone - YouTube

its the most blatant example of biting I've seen in recent years. the fact that you fukk with Jmsn yet hate the Weeknd proves it has nothing to do with the music for you (since it sounds exactly the same) and has everything to do with the fact that you're still butthurt over nyggas clowning you for counting the number of times they played Drake at the club (we didn't forget nygga)
:wow:

His touring that he has been doing. Artists don't see cheese from the CDs anyway not like that at least.

And the drake situation is :snoop: status

Echoes is AT LEAST on par with HOB, if you don't think so then you haven't spun it enough and let the songs digest. Echoes is a slow burner, HOB blew the doors off from the get go. Thursday is my least favorite but the second half of that CD goes in.

For those wondering what he has been doing, well he has been touring trying to gain more than just Internet buzz, plus he dropped 3 tapes in a year that he gave away for free, he should have gained some time to chill from you cats on the strength of that.

HOB>Echoes>Thursday

I like all three tho obviously Thursday gets some hate because it felt like a step down from HOB. Still, Birds pt 2 is easily one of his best songs imo...

Where is this Thursday hate coming from? The whole tape goes from start to finish just like HOB(I would even put it over that because Wicked Games always got a skip from me). EOS nearly put me to sleep outside initiation/fall
