The Weeknd Thread ( "The Dawn FM" OUT NOW)

ICFMF is easily the weakest to me, if any other artist sang it, I wouldn't even give it a second listen 

Whos singing pop songs about Coke though??

Miguel? Frank Ocean? I don't listen to him but maybe Trey Songz? R. Kelly?

And you said it...pop songs. The thing that has always made the weeknd stand out to me was the dark atmosphere that surrounded his sound. Like you can mean mug while listening to high pitched vocals. I have never been an R&B fan but love the Weeknd. It was like a rappers R&B singer.

I am not saying the new stuff is bad because i like wanderlust in the same vein. But a whole album of that and i feel like i have lost my favorite musician out right now. But Mood Music (the hills) gives me hope. That song puts me right in the place.

I have only listened to In the night. And its good i like it but i hope its the minority of the album sound.

Miguel yee, Frank yee.
I agree that the sound/atmosphere is a part of what made him unique, but his ability to hit notes & his songwriting I think also played a big part in that.
Look at KL, that album has a whole different sound to it & it still goes.



Imo even if the sound goes, the content & the singing will still be there.
Also too I think its better to go with new sounds than to keep pimping the dark atmospheric stuff. Itll get too repitive.

Whos singing pop songs about Coke though??

So because it's about coke it's automatically good music? If you folks rock with it, I'm happy for them. Personally I think it's a pretty bland track

The Hills music video dropping   did the CDQ drop as well???

Naa not even,cmon man. The thing I was trying to say was nobody could make something like this rn. A drug pop song with Michael esque vocals, dont see how its generic,unless you mean generic for him.


Imma stop though, starting to stan

It's all good bro, just different perspectives is all. Flourish 

Is there an explicit CDQ version of The Hills out?

[Vincent Van Goat]

I'm in class can't wait to listen

I remember being in class years ago when tracks would drop, I'd excuse myself from class 

 didn't matter what was going on at the moment

Or if it wasn't important, best believe I was turning up on the laptop or computer, gyrating like Quint in my seat

 

[stick]

I'm gonna have to pirate that Explicit version. Can't buy 2 mp3s of the same song off of principle .

 

[hymen man]

Props to the Weeknd for having Bruce Jenner do a cameo at the end

 

[knappps]

One for the kids & Moms, other for you & the females.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Was his inspiration for In The 90's

I wonder how often he kicks it with these 90's babies. Pretty dangerous

 

[grandtheftbike]

His coachella performance > cdq



Not mad at this tho

[Vincent Van Goat]

you wild bro

I specifically recall a morning when show tickets were going on sale, and I KNEW it would get sold out quick. I got to class super early, before anyone was even in the room, just to set up the website so I could cop. Eventually one of the quieter cute girls in class came by and sat down a few desks away. She noticed what I was doing and proceeded to hit me with the "omg you like The Weeknd too?"

Was a great semester

Hopefully the new album is more 'The Hills' and not the other 3
