[scotthallwithapick]

I must be in the minority but I heavily disliked OG Ron C's C&S mixtape of the Weeknd. It wasn't done right

 

[boys noize]

Siouxie and the Banshees

Beach House

 

[yungdeadmike]

Chris Brown and them better not start biting!

I was gettin so tired of "rap" aka CRAP and "R&B" aka POP music lately.

Thank God The Weeknd and Frank Ocean have came into my life. Only thing I been listening to lately.

Awesome songwriting ability.

Real Lyrics=Real Music.

why? your getting free promo + it shows how much people like your music

co-sign.

The Weeknd is doing his whole mysterious artist thing and people aren't waiting up for him and his team to actually drop an official video.

If I were The Weeknd, who know one would know about if it wasn't for Drake pushing his mixtape, I would be flattered people are taking the time to create videos for his music. If nothing else, like the man said - free promo.

Thank you for this, that was awesome

 

[D StaXX]

That's dope. 

 

[rhino so]

^thanks guys

it makes you appreciate the mixtape even more when you listen to the samples. Beach House and Siouxsie fit his style perfectly.

 

[shady4life]

High For This is all I've heard so far. Got me eager to hear rest of tape later.

I can see why he would be annoyed. You're taking creative control away from me. Maybe your unauthorized interpretation is completely different from what I intended it to be.

and no matter how much he'll say, these videos are not authorized, not official.. there are plenty of people ignoring that and saying it is.

Whoa whoa whoa. Who said he was mad at unauthroized music videos? If anything he posted some of them that were ok. He is made at youtube for deleting his song off of youtube. And mad OF for being lames.

[rico x hood]

Gave dude a chance. But I'm goin back to my Frank Ocean, can't really get into The Weeknd.

Wicked Games is cool though.

 

[36 ounces]

Pretty shocked that there is almost no mention of Coming Down....

...That bassline.

 

[D StaXX]

That's my favorite song. 

 

[Gordonson]

It's high on my list as well.

And I'm actually the exact opposite of dude on the last page. I can count the Frank Ocean songs that I really, REALLY like on one hand. But I can't seem to get enough of The Weeknd.

 

[jr paperstacks]

Yea, I put that Ocean tape away a few weeks ago. It had a good run though.

He praised the video for Glass Table Girls. I know because that's the first one I saw and that's what inspired me to download the tape. Personally thought that was fantastic. However, he definitely voiced displeasure with the "What You Need" video via twitter. He also continues to tweet/facebook "no official videos yet"



for the record, I prefer The Weeknd over Frank Ocean. They're both dope though.

Seriously, if I were The Weeknd I would've just claimed this as mine.

 

[slim]

really, though.. i'm drunk right now and i have to say that The Knowing is one of the greatest songs of 2011.
