‘After Hours,’ the album, follows 2016’s ‘Starboy’ and 2018 EP ‘My Dear Melancholy.’ It’s preceded by dual singles ‘Heartless’ and ‘Blinding Lights’ – which topped the charts in the US and UK respectively.
Idk what kind of horror movie them he’s going for this era but it’s not working…the s*** is weird and throwing everything off.
Gurl ur just noticing it now?
The weeknd makes music for vampires.
Sèxy vampire music
The hills sounds like a song vampires jam to when drinking blood.
I don’t think anyone thinks he makes “s*** vampires music”. The Weeknd music basically left over songs from other artist. Even “I Can’t Feel My Face” blew up as a joke that he sounded like Michael Jackson. All his music is for interracial meth who like to experiment, nothing more, nothing less.
@Tori, you have GOT to be deaf, blind and crazy! See, Abel is BLACK, therefore he can certainly be inspired from THE POP MUSIC MASTER that is Michael Jackson…can he not? History lesson! ?? EVERY ARTIST reacted to Thriller accordingly ?? Prince, Tina Turner, Madonna, Janet, Phil Collins, the list GOES ON…but it’s what you ADD to it, ya know? Damn, if I hear one more artist take Abel’s ad-libs, dark vibes, arrangements, atmosphere…well, whatever…see, I know…and you know that I know that you know that I know ?
No one has token anything from The Weeknd, there’s nothing to be inspired by if all you’re music sounds like remakes and inspirational tributes. Doesn’t matter how black he is, it took YEARS for the black community to know him from anything else beside “Crew Love”, which is Drake song. His second album with good with the little originality and creativity it held but that went down the drain by the time “Starboy” dropped and his catalog turned into karaoke. The difference with “Prince, Tina Turner, Madonna, Janet, Phil Collins, the list GOES ON” is their creativity and versatility, The Weeknd music goes down the scale each release so I don’t what kind of ’history lesson’ you’re trying to give.
Tori, Crew Love was a WEEKND SONG GIVEN TO DRAKE. The Weeknd said he gave away key elements of his OWN album that became what is known to be Take Care ??And BISH, what creativity and versatility are you speaking about? STYLE, cause every ONE of those artists has a distinctive style and you get it EVERY TIME! I own those albums! I was talking about THRILLER being HORROR and creating that in a pop music space for a mass audience when I said history lesson! I was talking about Thriller creating the blockbuster videos, multiple singles from an album, multiple genres from an album…ok? And the reason I said The Weeknd is black is BECAUSE it takes us longer to crossover and we work extra hard at it, which makes us FINESSE the ish and CREATE new textures that everybody eats up as something they didn’t think about but now consider ?? The Weeknd was inspired by non other than MJ, which goes to show that in 2020 that’s STILL the way to crossover, especially if you’re black! And who do you stan for? Cause I need to know what you like and what you don’t before I go any further ?
SZA hates the rolling stone cover with megan thee stallion and normani
?????
Everybody hates the cover
They said they all look ugly and ashy
??????????????
Go to shàde room, the comments are killing me
Another L for miss normani
We like to see it
Something seems off about that magazine cover.. they don’t seem like they into it, like they are bored or something. Lizzo should have been there in the middle and beat alll of them.
nope. https://youtu.be/TzyYbtwtKgc
You know when a true artist is doing everything right and other artists are doing everything wrong? The ones with the true talent vs the ones that have no vision for themselves? The ones who try to be everybody but end up being nothing and nobody? The ones with a REAL ORIGINAL STYLE vs the ones that just can’t find themselves ? That’s what separates The Weeknd from THOSE OTHER ARTISTS ? Charlie Puth just said he thinks The Weeknd is his favorite artist ever…hunnie, we know why ? I’mma need Gaga or some girl to get to her ish and let these heauxs know again! Somebody has to let the girls know how to do it! I’mma need all artists who came to be an artist to BE ONE. Tired of artists who get back “to their roots” and end up just wearing hobo clothes and t-shirts LMAO ? That’s fine, but then the music still has nothing to it? WAIT. ? That’s what you came to do? OK…But ANYWAY, AFTER HOURS 3/20, get your album, merch and tickets…SAID WHAT TF I SAID, come test me now! Cause the Grammys are just waiting for the white male version of Abel to truly get it ROFL ? The Weekday or some bullshiiit like that ? ??
Good for The Weeknd, can’t wait for this new tour and album. If anyone is looking for Weeknd presale codes, here: https://stadiumhelp.com/tour-guide/the-weeknd-tour-setlist/
Ok King! But I just know in my heart by the planned dates he’ll book Lollapalooza Latin America 2021 instead of doing his own tour around here ? I wanna see him live so bad but I’m not about to pay 600 bucks for him and a few other overrated hipster bands
Sia duet + Starboy = ?. Follow-ups? ? Is this his attempt at Thriller?
#1 in the WORLD ? Blinding Lights! ??
