The Weeknd Thread ( "The Dawn FM" OUT NOW)

Fantano gave it a 5 

 

[Narcissist]

He gave BBTM the same rating. He's only gave EOS a high rating

I don't get into reviews or critics, but if i did, this is literally the exact opposite type of dude I want reviewing/rating a Weeknd album for me .

Thought about not clicking just based off of the thumbnail but decided against it. Knew I made the wrong choice 5 seconds in.

Fantano is big in the review game so I figured I'd see what he had to say. Usually just watch for the lulz because it's rare that I agree with what he says.

Curious to see the guests for the US part of the tour... don't think it's been announced yet, right?

Opening week sales projections for The Weeknd's "Starboy" have been reduced, but they remain impressive -- and should still comfortably net "Starboy" a #1 debut.

In recent weeks, Hits Daily Double’s initial US album sales projections have proven too low.

The opposite appears to be true for The Weeknd’s “Starboy,” this week’s highest-profile new release. The publication has lowered its projections for the new album.

Hits, which originally said “Starboy” would sell 225-275,000 pure US copies in its first week, is now eyeing a total in the 220-230K range.

Its initial consumption projection (album sales + track sales/10 + track streams/1500) of 350-400,000 has been lowered to 340-350K.

While lower than the initial figures, the tallies are still impressive — and should still respectively earn “Starboy” #1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales and Billboard 200 charts.

HAD to post my 12,000th post in this thread.

It's great to see it so active, hoping it stays this way in the future

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Excuse how trashy this "editing" is, did it super quick haha.

Was driving home yesterday so I wanted to give Starboy a few more spins since I do like the album a lot. After listening to it all the way through I wanted to throw on Kissland from front to back and it was just different. The sound, the lyrics, and the transitions. KL>SB. Starboy kinda had too many lyrics repeating the same thing over and over.

As of now the songs I usually skip or not really feeling is:

Rockin' 

 

Secrets 

Love to Lay

A Lonely Night

Songs I am indifferent to:

Attention

All I know

My Rankings of the Album as of now.

KL/HOB

EOS

SB

EOS slander?! 

Chill

No one better ever slander XO/The Host 

.

Still is the greatest transition he's had in a record

 

[D Fly]

I'm running up on whoever slandered Professional.

 

[JustBlaze.]

"Professional" is a top 5 Weeknd track. I don't care what nobody say.

 

[delete1234]

Idk bout top 5 or even top 10 but it's def a dope song and one of the best if not the best on kiss land

 

[Gordonson]

I hearrr... The secrets that you keeeep

When you're talking in your sleep

 

[Ingenious Bastard]

Sidewalks is growing on me. With the right band behind him, that's gonna sound really really good live on stage.

 

[BranchLifestyle]

True Colors sounds like some generic R&B love song. Bland as hell, doesn't stand out to me at all. Gave it a few spins, tried to like it. Meh.

It will sound better than the record if he doesn't use auto tune.

 

[BranchLifestyle]

Kendrick on Sidewalks does nothing for me. Kinda ruins the song.

 

[Ingenious Bastard]

Yeah, the feature added nothing to the song. I don't like when he has features tbh....

Fantano is a zero

Don't know how he became "famous" or why anybody gives a **** about his reviews.

Internet, YT especially is full of weirdos like him.
