lol not gonna lie i kinda feel the same. he had a slow decline since house of balloons. but i will say i do like the new album, and play it often.

i also hate that he gives off major :mjpls: vibes. he's better heard, not seen imo.

I lol @ "I Can't Feel My Face" being played on mainstream radio and most people having no clue what it means.

I haven't checked much of his new stuff. I'm happy he's doing well I guess, but I liked it better when I didn't know what he looked like and he was just some scandalous dude singing the most fukked up lyrics real sweet-like.

He took the R Kelly "I'm fukkin' You Tonight" lane and made a career out of it.

I guess I can give him some credit that even tho he's mainstream now his subject matter didn't change :laugh:

he was cooler when only the hip people knew about him :yeshrug:

now you have middle-aged mom's and shyt playing the 'the hills' thinking they're cool :francis:
Nah hipster Weeknd fans are annoying as shyt...as most hipster fans are..

"OMG I first heard about him back in 2011...House of Balloons :ahh: "

Then when new fans take the time to go back and fukk with his older stuff ,his so called loyal fans still bytch.
He seems soulless from the little bit ive heard from him. I cant get into him n/h
:ehh:

Fair enough, I wasn't feeling him until

He gave you 3 albums, 4 if you want to count Kiss Land. He hit a ceiling and had to break through can't fault him for that.
