Go play drakes verse on Bria’s Interlude, The Weeknd isn’t as special as yal think, It was because of Drake, now Frank Ocean is actually special
Drake changed R&B and Frank just outclasses everyone

let brent figure out how to make songs that aren't boring on his own.

40’s production definitely helped influence the sonic landscape of house of balloons but calling The Weeknd a drake clone is a massive stretch

Also this whole thread is a mess. Brent ain’t even the best R&B male doing it rn, let alone artist. If y’all don’t really listen to R&B like that it’s fine but don’t just say random s***

Come on.. obviously the sound was super derivative of Drake + 40 but not even close to being a clone

If Abel wanted to make strictly RnB. He'd do it and dominate.

or

if Frank actually cared about music he'd be the king

No cap

So if I copy somebody vocals I’m not their clone? They didn’t birth me?

so cringe my god

Frank is the king u ain’t even awknowledging Bino being better than Abel at u name it

Now we got cringe drake stans s***ting on brent

Insert Kdogone post about how Frank has literally never repped being R&B right here

There’s a difference between copying somebody (Greta Van Fleet) & being inspired by your influences to create something new

The Weeknd never made it a secret that SFG was a big influence on his sound

Weeknd and his fans act like he invented shxt

Lucky Daye >

I love Brent but idk if he's ever gonna be the #1. It's been three years since Sonder Son. His career has been lowkey disappointing compared to the potential he showed on that tape.

Have any R&B guys made an album as good as Kelela's Take Me Apart?

Brent king already too me

Fantastic album, Lucky Daye Painted album comes close

Wtf is that lmaoooo

Price of fame is brent surpassing frank dont care

I was right
