Early impressions
Interesting mixing decisions on his falsettos . Voice almost has this volcanic feeling of breaking through the mix especially on alone again.
the album overall is LOUD. Definitely meant for tour.
illangelo max Martin and metro are all over this album. Max Martin is the pop songwriting sensei, one of the reasons BBTM is so iconic. Illangelo n Weeknd especially should’ve never left so many years on the table.
snowchild is sidewalks flow+ tell your friends storytelling+ my dear melancholy production. Cali was the mission now a nigga leaving is probably one of the hardest lines on here. Futuristic/ Philip k d*** is so tongue n cheek.
escape from LA is doesn’t sound how I would based off the AM description. Can’t believe metro did production on this one.
-repeat after me interlude is NASTY. Shoutout kevin Parker boi.
Singles fit the album really well!
save your tears/ in your eyes sounds like what he was aiming for on Starboy but he couldn’t execute it properly. Both Feel out of place tho.
hardest to love may have to grow on me.
Great great great breakdown
agreed on all points
i dont love him
i dont love him
i dont love him, when im thinking of you
Facts
i remember u saying how the people talking bout the snippets were lowkey f***ing up ur hype for the project too
THIS MF DELIVERED THOUGH F*** THEM
lol why do yall hate bbtm? Half of that album is gems
Crazy thing is I don’t hate BBTM lmao. I love that album. This better tho
lol why do yall hate bbtm? Half of that album is gems
its a good album but less consistent imo. the highs are high but the lows are low. the floor on after hours is really high to me
my drive home it was storming it hit SO HARD like the lightning was hitting on beat and s*** it felt magical
might be my fav first listen of anything ever just for that reason
lmao that sounds wild
repeat after me is my favourite so far, quite honestly i feel underwhelmed and it will take some more listens to really appreciate. Has some really good highs but it seems overproduced.
The first loves will do that. My First love and I used to connect over The Weeknd’s songs. I feel like this dude be singing bout my life sometimes, s*** hit so close
Man, like my ex and I had similar taste in music too y’know. That was crazy too me, like my folks know how passionate I get about music and there I had more than a lover but a best friend too. Shordy lowkey pulled me back and got me out some wild s*** I was deep in
Yeaaaa, I’m out. F*** off Abel
