They don't wanna hear this. His stans would rather believe this is actually good. Mans been taking steps backward since HOB, literally every project worse than the last.

Then the whole going pop thing, just seems so forced, you can still sell a lot of records while sticking to your roots, ask Frank, ask Kendrick.

Hopefully the rest of the album is good.

He's not Frank or Kendrick so why compare them ?

You n!ggaz are just greedy and want HOB back

In terms of career trajectory he's doing exactly what an artist should do....

Often and Hills might be pop ladden production but he's still as hedonistic and alternative as ever

What's so forced about singing about coke and being HOH ?

When he drops a ballad on some Babyface/jodeci shyt you can talk

The funniest thing is that on trilogy he had quite a few "soft" ballads. The knowing comes to mind. Granted it was amazing but it was a ballad

People really do oversimplify Trilogy. "Oh it's Dark, Hard On Hoes Music, all of it"

Which is a lie. I spent time with those tapes. There's a lot longing for love, longing for acceptance, using drugs as an escape, heartbreak from women, betrayal from women, feeling abandoned by women. Trust issues, and deceit from women"

People who oversimplify it to "hard on hoes" really weren't listening.

Rolling Stone, Wicked Games, Same Old Song, The Knowing, are not what I would call "hard on hoes". Especially in comparison to a lot of the other tracks.

People listened to the spacey, dark, gloomy vibes and sounds on Trilogy and not so much the lyrics. Bought more into the image and not so much the music/lyrics.

Dumbing his music down to a hard on hoes, partying drug addict is one of the dumbest most lazy things that people do when it comes to Trilogy. And it isn't true.

Y'all could come up with whatever excuses y'all want. But this is lackluster.

Y'all nikkas need to chill

I'm literally a day one fan remember back on sohh when he first dropped and people were saying he's bubbling. Am I completely thrilled with bbtm naw but nikka was homeless at one point and dropped gems for free. I actually ranked kiss land ahead of everything but Hob but the general populace panned it and that whole album other than wanderlust was pure darkness. So what y'all nikkas really want at the end of the day

We just don't want generic ass pop music that sound like edgy One Direction, Backstreet Boys or Jason Derulo rejects

nikkas didn't like Kissland because there wasn't enough bytches and hoes and coke in it


I play The Town and get on some BDSM shyt with bytches that still love me after years of separation

I play Pretty and hate fukk an old flame that thought her p*ssy didn't belong to me

I play Kissland and hit the strip club and make a bytch snort a line off the toilet seat before I piss on her face

What I tell you

The Video


Weeknd looking like a VET!

 

[MillionMills]

This shyt is corny as fukk...

I will always check for his music just because he was my favorite artist and Trilogy and Kissland will always be up there for me.

But this shyt is fukking corny...

The entire music video was fukking car commercial bruh...

He really just turned himself into a moody pill popping Jason Derulo.


Like the quality drop in his artistry is like never seen before...you thought Eminem's drop was bad...this is pretty bad

How you go from making music videos like Pretty...to The Hills to fukking In the Night and Starboy?


nikka dancing with a big ass red lightsaber cross...

Did Abel fukk your girl ?

nikkas want him to make the same music he made when he was sharing some dirty studio with 2 other grown men broke as fukk doing drugs everyday to escape harsh reality

He made $55m last year, how can these nikkas think he's gonna move backwards
