    Facts. His journey has been a masterstroke in artistic decisions from day one (arguably, KL was his only ‘mistake’ when factoring in the reception to it). The way he initially broke though the internet in the blog era was breathtaking. Everyone was shook when this MJ sounding band-named artist just popped out of nowhere as a veritable silhouette dropping d***gy-infused, hedonistic songs with the dissonant voice of an angel. It f***ed people up. I was sending it to all my friends and current GF at the time and we were just all totally enthralled. Bearing in mind MJ just died before only added to the mystique and narrative built around this character.

    Then the reveal and the style to go alongside it. I remember him not ‘looking’ like his voice and that tripping people out.

    Then the crazy hair that had all the white girls buggin.

    Then the ‘compromise’ hit-maker era with Can’t Feel My Face (don’t like this song) Hills (still one of the greatest songs ever made even though the album wasn’t my favourite) the 50 Shades s*** to Starboy that you mentioned before with him trying to fuse and synthesise all his elements into a saleable end-product. Worked perfectly in getting him the fame and the bag at the right time.

    Now we have him back on the ethereal darker s*** on the back of the superstar image that he has cultivated over the past decade whilst also capitalising on the massive retrofuturistic and poppy 80s aesthetic that has exploded recently (Stranger Things, everything neon, etc.) which just so happens to be closer to his KL sound at the same time (makes me wonder what would happen if KL dropped today… that s*** would win so many Grammies).

    Sorry for stream of consciousness above. Not in the mood to structure my thoughts properly this morning. Just feeling really hype about this next album.

    how do people compose words like this

    What you said about my post is how I feel when reading Actavis’ post. He succinctly captures things perfectly every time.

    Imagine driving for 2 hours or so just as the sun is setting and playing AH during sunset before playing KL when it finally gets dark in the final hour of your car journey?

    I’m doing that this summer.

    Hopefully The Dawn Is Here (is that going to the album name?) can complete a new trilogy or something to play after KL. Or maybe it will fit better after AH? I dunno. Can just see this album completing a new (and even better) trilogy - even though KL was released in 2013.

    You know what weird? My boomer stepdad who only listens to his 80s s*** like Cure, Billy Idol, Depeche Mode etc. Loves Abel since AH dropped and has since bought KL vinyl. It’s interesting how Abel can bridge those generational gaps unlike any artist in this era.

    Lowkey think he’s the true superstar of our age. Closest thing since MJ. Maybe a overwrought take, but it’s interesting to consider in an era where we don’t really produce ‘superstars’ anymore in that Prince and Michael mould.

    Gotta be honest, it's so liberating to see both Abel and Bruno having the top spot in mainstream music. They are really bringing creativity and fun out of the mainstream. MJ & Prince gotta be proud. I think that's one of the reasons why MJ became the giant that he became, he inspired everyone to take risks, no matter the genre.

    HURRY UP HMFMM

    Anyone else hear the resemblance to Thrillers " You try to scream
    But terror takes the sound before you make it
    You start to freeze
    As horror looks you right between the eyes
    You're paralyzed"

    On the pre chorus?

    Omg... I can't not hear the similarities now!
