I don't care if you wanna call this a pop album but this album is fukking great.

I was worried come in and this blew me away.

This is better than kiss land Bbtm.


He shows so much versatility artistically on here


Vocally and lyrically he's grown so much.

Production is completely on point.


This might be my favorite weeknd album of all time.

a bunch of good to great songs mixed in with too much filler and a few duds.
not to bring up the golem from the 6 but its basically the same way i felt about Views.

his albums just don't hit.
this is most cohesive and best produced though.

I Feel It Coming is miles ahead of the rest of the album.
a mention for True Colors too.

Kendrick is on a run........of trying to ruin as many good songs as he can.
keep those verses for Taylor Swift and the likes my guy.

it's kind of funny though..I'm a legend I guess. Daft Punk were like we heard your music and you are amazing. I don't take compliments but for them to say that I was surprised. It goes way back when I was with Johnny J and pac. He asked me to make him a song. Now I'm going off on tangents. Enjoy the album.
Who exactly are you? You can't just drop random names and expect people not to call you out on the Bullshyt.

If you really did produce Secrets, very good job. I can hear some 80's samples in there. Sounds like Flock of Seagulls or Duran Duran or something.

I'm not sure what's the problem . There are plenty of projects that people never outdo. The project hasn't even been out for 12 hours yet and you're over here telling people what it is and what it isn't :heh:

If Trilogy ends up being him magnum opus, what's the issue with that.

You talking about in the moment dikkriding but you're in the moment hating. Can't even digest the project and you already forming opinions :heh:

The sound that got The Weeknd famous comes off as bland now but his pop and electronic songs sounds more fresh and have more life to them.

Gotta give it a few more spins before I come up with a conclusion but LOVE TO LAY is tooo fukking good man

Does anyone know the sample of the synths on Secret? It's on the tip of my toungue no homo. I wanna say it's from a early 2000's r&b boy band track that has the same melody in the hook. :jbhmm:

*found it*
