What kind of strategic move is he making by trying to be more 'exclusive' with his beats?

Not on Future or Gunna's projects anymore

Mans is literally no where to be found outside of the new weeknd album

He likes to save beats and put all his creativity and focus on his collab albums, there is your answer

idk but i need savage mode 2

He dropped a big ass hit with heartless dude, Where you been?

Isn’t he supposed to be making a comeback this year? I know that he and 21 are working on Savage Mode 2.

You don't know how to read OP ?

Been hearing this for years..

His album was also underwhelming

All I want is no auto and save mode 2

Nigga let him work, You don’t want trash beats coming out, Do you?

He needs to get back with Future what’s this silent beef they have going on ion like it

TBH

Some weird s*** going on for sure

They seem to be on good terms, but not really friends anymore

Savage Mode 2 so soon

You’re asking too much

cause he took a long ass break and came back with a super underwhelming project

Bro said he retired

He and 21 have been teasing SM2 for awhile now. Also he's gotta drop that Lil Durk project. Nothing but heat most likely.

Taking his time making music.

He was putting out better beats when he was EP'ing multiple projects a year

Look at 2014-2016

Everyone giving different answers in this thread

i really hope he keeps evolving his sound. last album was great

need harder drums tho

That collab project still in rotation tbh

He was trying to change his sound up so he wouldn’t be stale/ fall off. Unfortunately he kind of did that anyways (in my opinion). Pierre’s making better beats than him now.

I miss future/metro boomin collabs

S*** was always an instant hit

He evolved nigga, He ain’t releasing as he did before, He prolly wanna be like Dre or Timbo at this point, Those 2 don’t release s*** that often b, You need to learn on how to have patience
Baby 🕰
