I know it’s not strictly true. But the feeling I get when I revisit this album combined with the indignation at how little it is appreciated make me wanna go

Who TF making intros like Professional apart from this man?

Who else could deliver that godly beat switch on Kiss Land (song). When that first hit, I replayed it over and over and spent an extra hour driving in my car. Felt like I was floating. Was a perfect sunny day and the roads were clear AF. Good times.

Tears In The Rain is just pure cinematic also

Only miss is Live For tbh. Very disappointing after the Drake and Abel classics before it.

But it actually is

Honey honey honey honey honey pleeeeeeeeeaseeeeee

You realer than me

Tears in the Rain top 1 Abel

Top 1

Kiss Land single for me probably, or HOB / GT... so many perfect songs

OP on a weeknd thread streak

Adaption

I lay my head on a thousand beds
It's been a test to see how far a man
Can go without himself
I think I lost the only piece that held it all in place
Now my madness is the only love I let myself embrace
I could've stayed
But I chose the life
I chose the life
Then I realized
She might have been the one
I let it go
For a little fun

That's called tourettes

But yes Kiss Land is hella underrated

Weeknd day today my man. Listening to nothing but the discog all day. And it’s only 10 am.

Gonna listen all f***ing day. I’ve been listening to nothing but Freddie and Redman for weeks and now feeling I need some heavenly, depraved debauchery to distract myself from the vanilla loser that I truly am

Weeknd has so many peaks it's crazy to think about

Remember these sheeeeets???

Remember that narrative where people said that Abel had a trash pen???

Full of quotables and the most evocative and provocative lines

It migt be tbh

It's Abel's best album.

... in BRAZIL

It's his best work for sure but not even in my top 100 albums. Classic tho

It’s grown on me over the years

I looove kissland fr but Blonde exists

I feel this OP

Professional is TRULY the greatest Intro to anything ever, I really will stake that claim. Not many projects in ANY genre as grandiose and expansive as Kiss Land is

Imagine

I think the production is cool on kiss land but the writing is ass

OP keep making the best threads

But yes, kissland is amazing and so under appreciated in the music space
Adaptation is my fav Abel song ever, he made this album when he was 23 I think. Which is crazy

I don't listen to The Weeknd for lyrics to begin with. He's more about atmosphere imo.

Awful album

Is this hyperbole or do you really have a top 100 ready to go lmao
