I would even say more europe - ish sound. Me as one really appreciates these influences. Because i grew up with that kind of music around
I feel that. I’m from the Bronx so it’s easy to kind of remain in your comfort zone and not expand your taste over here. I’ve never been like that though and I love pretty much every genre except maybe Country and s***.
I KNOW TEMPTATION IS THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE
YOU’RE OFFERING YOURSELF TO ME LIKE SACRIFICE
Phantom Regret into The Birds pt 1 is insane
Makes you feel like you woke up in a wrong timeline
its phenomenal
absolutely love Abel’s part, just wasn’t crazy about Tyler on it
but it’s hitting more every listen
This album an existential crisis lyrically.
Bro only like 30% of the lyrics have hit me I still can’t get over the production

Production is out of this world.
the twitter hermits switched their opinions yet or is their little brains still taking time to process the greatness of this record?

I’ve been seeing a lot more love for it on Twitter now compared to the night it dropped. A lotta people saying it’s a masterpiece

I focused more on the lyrics today and it made even better somehow, I'm baffled how anyone can hate it
I don’t even understand the ppl saying the album sounds repetitive. What songs on here sound alike?
You said it! That’s part of what I love about this site, you have people that genuinely love all aspects of music and like to discuss everything on the table. You go on social media and it’s just weirdos looking for mood music, a catchy hook, “bangers” etc.
A lot of people genuinely do not care about the complexity of music and I think that’s why MDM, AH and Dawn got so much flack from them. I applaud Abel for turning away from his basic pop sound on BBTM & Starboy and instead putting his soul in full projects again, with the sound HE wants to do. He’s not catering to the public, I can’t tell you how many times he’s probably seen or heard “go back to trilogy weeknd” and he just doesn’t, I love that so much. He’s evolved into such a better artist for me these past few years that I almost feel betrayed by what he did on BBTM & Starboy - aside from a few phenomenal tracks of course but the overall whole package just feels so much less artistic than what he is doing now
Agree with everything.
And that it is working for him should hopefully only motivate him to continue on his path forward. See where it takes him creatively. It has been an incredible journey so far.
