After Hours was my favorite Weeknd project since Kissland. I did enjoy MDM, Privilege was the one.

I do enjoy the first 5 tracks of Dawn FM but am having trouble getting into much else besides that, I did like Best Friend when I heard it.

I will say though, the concept is super awesome and the perspective of Jim on the outro is >

Interested to see what the third album in this trilogy will be.

Idk how someone could listen to music like this and get sleepy lmao

Yall will be back next week

Ok not literally sleepy but I was bored on my second spin on my commute through traffic.

 

[QU!K]

I like MDM a lot

Frank Dukes
Gesaffelstein
Guy-Man
Skrillex
DaHeala
Mike Will Made It

No Max Martin

I think MDM is criminally slept on. I return to that EP probably more than I do most of his albums these days

I Was Never There is peak Weeknd imo

I don't understand how some of y'all don't like Dawn FM.

Abel nailed the whole GTA Vice City radio station coke vibes on this album

Finally went for a drive with the album, and this is my interpretation of it:

The album starts with the uptempo club records, saying he’s in the club/on drugs etc. then around ‘Sacrifice’, he “dies” and is now in purgatory. The next few songs is him speaking from purgatory, even a few songs talking to sone girl he left behind (‘I Heard You’re Married’, ‘Don’t Break My Heart’) etc.

I think this album will grow on people like After Hours did, there’s a theme here to be broken down, I don’t care for the upbeat records that start the album but IMO its got sone joints on there and people will come around to it

I wouldn't say I don't like it, I don't think it's bad but I definitely don't enjoy as many songs from this as his other projects.
Listened to the album in full multiple times now and my opinion of putting it at the bottom of his discography hasn't changed.

Gotta give this a few spins. **** def not hitting like AH but I haven’t given it a fair shake tbh.

- New stadium tour tickets will be copped -- the transitions will be glorious
- Dawn standouts for me: Depeche Mode/Human League-influenced Gasoline + HDIMYLM transition to TMB + Japanese city pop-influenced Out of Time + ITSE? transition to Starry Eyes + Less Than Zero being the next Save Your Tears
- To give background, I personally think MDM/Kiss Land are his most "complete" works

I Was Never There is peak Weeknd imo

I was never there and hurt you were the best songs on the project. Just pure fire

Peep NTXO homie hitting the ad-libs from 1:42 to 1:53:

 

[QU!K]

I wish the end of Best Friends was the beginning of Is There Someone Else?

 

[Belgium]

Don't Break My Heart is my jam
Best Friends and Starry Eyes are my other favorites from this project

 

[yankeesking92]

Out of Time is my favorite on the album.

 

[cragmatic]

Alright, I’ve given it some more plays and it’s growing on me a little. Best Friends is really good. I enjoy Is There Someone Else as Well. Out of Time isn’t bad but it’s far from great IMO.

MDM has been his best project since BBTM for me, maybe even kissland. privilege always on deck

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

You take the best 6 from After Hours and stack it up vs the 6 of MDM I think it's a tough call

They both have similar vibes but obviously After Hours branches out into pop too

Until I Bleed Out and the bonus tracks from After Hours are like an extension of MDM imo, just like same tone
