    Its just seemed so tedious like he had to make it after bbtm

    Seemed like it was generic song after generic song, its a slugfest to get to IFIC. It seemed like he went to the stu and they said okay abel make a generic mj type song, now a trilogy parody, now a trap song and etc. vocally it was a bit lacking as well, he played it super safe except for a few songs , his lower register singing in secrets & die for you come to mind, both highs on this mid album. The albums you named are classics tho thrice, this a 6-7 on a good day and u still gotta cut a good 1/3 to enjoy imo

    hey how's it going! yup, I've read this I guess a couple of days after it was published. (it was you or somebody else that shared it on the old KTT) Remember it spoke about EOS too, and why he wasn't involved, cause of family matters. Wonder if that's true, given the KOTF line about the Doc.

    Anyways, yeah, I remember that I enjoyed reading it, gotta read it again to refresh my memory. Btw these days I've read the Jeremy Rose interview, I love the old interviews that cover the mixtapes era!

    BRUH STARBOY IS SO SAFE

    Compare his vocals to how the man was SINGING SINGING on mdm thats pain

    He’s really about to become one of the greatest artist in history now. Glad he’s focused on this again.

    interview is so satisfying to read.

    Now that after hours was a huge success, he can double down on his risk taking. he aint ever gonna stop evolving

    i love starboy too but after hours made me realize that starboy pales in comparison and it also reminded me of where the weeknd can stand within pop music.

    I think he did the best he could with the sequencing with what he had but that approach was too safe, when the weeknd can do so much more.

    so f***in happy this era was so successful with fans and critics. This was a risk and now since it paid off, I expect him to be way more consistent, atleast more risk taking

    Hes been tryna find that balance for a minute and he finally got it

    you took the words straight from my tongue, exactly what I'm saying tbh

    I kinda hope the wait isnt too long for the next album if its after hours tier, i can wait again for 4 years

    tbh bro id expect long waits from now on unless he really in his bag. I can see him doin a feature run and some eps but i think he’s gonna go pop radiohead on us after this

    He said he wants to continually shift pop music and be a trailblazer, he proved with after hours that he is. and now he has the confidence and full label belief/backing to do it. We gonna see a new weeknd this decade.
