    Okay. So $$$4U is an R&B album.

    What genre is Hurry Up Tomorrow?

    We’re not doing the endless questions.

    The Weeknd makes Pop music and R&B music.

    He has earned a place in Pop discussion and as well as R&B/Hip-Hop discussion.

    He will never appeal to only Pop listeners nor only make Pop music.

    You just answered the question about the genre of $$$4U.

    Why can’t you answer the question about the genre of Hurry Up Tomorrow?

    @iHype just said that $$$4U is an R&B album, and now can’t say that Hurry Up Tomorrow is a pop album because he believes all black singers with crossover appeal are actually R&B artists

    Katy Perry, Shawn Mendes, Tate McRae = straight up Pop artists

    Weeknd, Rihanna, SZA = artists who make crossover music that often appeals to Pop

    Hope this helps

    @Expert this sums it up pretty well

    The 3 biggest songs are literally Work, Needed Me, and Love on the Brain.

    Indisputably non-Pop songs.

    Needed me is pop and work is the exact brand of pop dancehall that was trending at the time. Even Ariana grande and Bieber dropped dancehall songs during that era
