    B/c they want OG Trilogy Weeknd. Like they want MM/Slim Shady Eminem.

    MJ was pop and that man made some sick a--- music. I've liked everything he's made. Excellent music.

    I can still listen to this front to back... when Kiss Land came out at first I would skip the singles because I played them to death....but I don't do that here. Even Often (year old) or Earned It. It's all solid. Wondering what the reviewers will give him b/c Kiss Land didn't score so well but I really liked that one to and go back to listen to it on occasion.

    Prince and MJ had their own signature sound of pop, this is Weeknd's.

    What's your thoughts @Narsh?

    You were going crazy when Kiss Land dropped, but now you seem to be very silent. What happened? :emoji_slight_frown:

    I honestly liked kissland more off the bat to be completely honest, but I can see why a lot of people think this is better

    I listened to Kiss Land yesterday and I can see why some would. Kiss Land still has that more darker mysterious feel to it. This one has more of a pop and catchy uplifting vibe to it. Both are solid albums, don't know why Kiss Land got so much hate. It was different than Trilogy but not a---, it was really good.

    EDIT: Also Kiss Land had a concept and followed it. BBTM doesn't really have a concept almost a compilation of hits.

    Kissland was so much better. I feel like he played it way too safe here and tried to appeal to the masses. Well not me Abel, you didn't appeal to me:emoji_cry:
    Kissland was also more relatable though

    I like this album. It's def not the trilogy mixtapes but it's good.

    Earned it sucks man. Can't believe of all songs that's the one that hit a mainstream audience in a big way.

    "You're always worth it
    And you deserve it"

    so annoying. reminds me of those L'Oreal shampoo adverts... "because you're worth it!"

    He ain't ever surpassing KL lyrically, some of his best songwriting is on that album
