It makes sense to me because the production isnt important to the message of the album. And if the album was truly great, it would be

Its one of the best produced and mixed albums of the year...

And? Just because the production is expensive doesn't mean it's benefiting the album

We were talking about music. You post fonts.

Once again, it's painfully obvious that Stranger Things is the only point of reference y'all have to any 80s inspired music.

Lol you have no clue what you’re talking about

My point is that the weekend’s whole approach to making music is like stranger things. Rip off vintage styles to appeal to a consumer base that is increasingly receptive to nostalgic aesthetics. There is not a single new idea he presents on the album. It’s “80 inSpiReD” so? There’s nothing original he’s just remaking what’s already been made and moaning about being a junkie. This is what Bruno Mars does and this what the Weeknd is doing. He got into Scorsese and bites his movies for his lame music videos. At least with drake we know he’s unoriginal and repetitive, the Weeknd hides behind marketing and patinas to mask the fact that he makes average and recyclable music

Weeknd's annoying because he keeps dropping trash despite having one of the most iconic voices of his generation

Good production doesn't benefit a album?

Do you think Heartless is a good song BECAUSE of metro boomin and the way he produced it? Or would the song work with a different producer/instrumental? In my opinion I think it would. The production on After Hours doesn't really do anything for me.
