I mean

Who’s really gonna play Just the Way You Are or Grenade at a function

Those are incredibly dated songs even though I love them

liquor store blues

Weeknds pop s*** is much blander than brunos

More party and drake than trilogy imo

No, I kind of took your point a step further uintentionallt, what I meant is that I’m thinking about Bruno, his music doesn’t have that same appeal to the heart as, even let’s say die for you or true colors. Not all dark music is good either. Because a track like initiation is just dark for the sake of it and all it does is show depravity

Maybe it’s drakes sound cause drake bought half the songs off him to make his first ever classic?

This. Most RnB acts that came out after Trilogy emulate Weeknd’s sound. Every nigga wants to be mysterious now.

And where do you think Drake got his sound from.

I'll give you a hint. His name starts with a K.

Blinding Lights, CFMF, Save Your Tears blander than Lazy Song, Locked Out Of Heaven and Uptown Funk? Nah

Consecration soon

I disagree, but tbf Usher hated that song too

The Label forced him to put it on the album

Yes actually lmao u didnt even list brunos best either

I would absolutely love it if in the club but I turned 21 during pre covid and at community college so ...

I don’t even love confessions part 2 tbh. I think he has much better songs than both of those

Party maybe but he was post trilogy himself

Drake made Toronto pop but in terms of sound I really think it’s a false narrative

The s*** drake was making pre take care sounds nothing like that Toronto sound

That's what I'm saying.

First album sounds like it's from 2010 the same way The Adventures Of Bobby Ray does.

Explain this yall

?

bro drake only started sounding like that after house of balloons came out...and party, u can look the dates up for when these projects came out if youre too young to remember

I feel like MJ would love Abel

Nah, look at TML vs Take Care. Weeknd influence was all over Take Care. Even though he only wrote a few songs.

I think so too

Yea there’s no way that he wouldn’t have praised the s*** out of DD

Weeknd hasnt made any pop music half as inspired as 24k
