False Alarm, Nothing Without You, Stargirl and Attention the only tracks im not fukking with brehs. Love to Lay is pretty boring/generic as well.
Everything Im rocking with to various degrees. The peaks are up there with almost any Weeknd project IMO
How yall rating brehs work?
1) House of Balloons (one of the best mixtapes of alltime, no filler, everything bumps, tho a couple im not feeling as much as i used to back in 11)
2) Starboy (production is another level, not the most layered but its just bangers on bangers that will age extremely well IMO. Like i said i only dont fukk with a handful of tracks, most of the hate im seeing from this are from nikkas that just dont like Pop/DancePop/Eletrcropop and want that same dreary shyt from top to end, nikkas is grown and a star now. Move on rassclots)
3) Echoes of Silence (most cohesive shyt hes done outside HOB, its just lacking that umpf, peaks arent on the level of most his shyt)

gap
4) Thursday (i get why ppl rank this higher but i dont feel it like that. Felt like a watered down attempt to follow HOB. Flows well and i get ppl love that cinematic shyt with it but eh - but i dont listen to hear shyt like crows cawking and gunshot/girl tears, thats for the
crowd lol, hipsters love this shyt and want to put next level meanings to lyrics and tracks but eh. Weeknd )
5) Kissland (this gets weird ass acclaim from the cult whitbois/gals and KTT vrigin nerds, its a bit underrated by critics who completely shyt on it but yeah it sonically regressed from the progressive shyt he was making.......Kiss Land is one of the best Weeknd tracks of alltime, Adaptation up there too and Wanderlust bump, better pop feel than most of BBTM easily. Some corny ass tracks on here tho, Tears In The Rain and Pretty are
. Production can be too one note and flat at times, its most boring tracks are easily the most boring of any project except arguably BBTM. Its a decent album but the nerds calling this classic is just hilarious with the revisionism. I swear some nikkas tried listening to this shyt 1000 times to try to like it, its not as good as the stans believe. Ppl love the idea/vision and its really good but the execution most the time is
)
6) BBTM (Tell Your Friends, Hills, Often, Acquainted bump HEAVY, ICFMF is pretty good. The rest....70% of this shyt wont age well at all)
