He wrote that shyt a decade ago. I’m sure he feels differently now

Ya after The Weeknd proved his unbelievers - which he seemed to be - wrong.

No disrespect, just interesting to see a post like this over time.

breh, he basically put 3 of his mixtapes together on some triple disc shyt. so of course, it's not gonna take much for him to go platnium. i DOUBT dude is going to blow up. isn't his album supposed to be out already? he doesn't have star value and his image is NOT marketable. how is his label supposed to market his fiendish looking ass.
:mjlol:

First couple pages got some of the worst hot takes in Coli history.

If a coli nikka says an artist will never blow, you can count on that artist becoming one of the top selling artist in the game.

If a coli nikka says an artist is destined to blow, you can count on them never reaching stardom.

No disrespect, but this judgment was so off. Weeknd ended up selling millions and is an icon now. To be put there with Bob Marley, Drake, Jay Z, Em, Cobain.

And in this thread you're confidently saying why he won't make it.

Not only did he do it, he did it by being original.

No disrespect. I just find internet opinions scary because it can lead those with hope the wrong way.

To the artists out there - follow your heart and never get disuaded by an internet opinion.

Bless.

Might legitimately make this my signature :jbhmm: ... because it's do true and has so many applications and says A LOT about humanity.

No doubt. And you never know who's really behind that opinion and their intentions.

If dude did traditional R&B instead of that abstract shyt he's doing now he would be platinum by now. Dude has the voice to be big in R&B but he's stuck on abstract music and videos that stoners and weirdo's seem to gravitate to. He's got the vocals but he'll never move major units as long as he's on that weird shyt. He has a niche but like all niche genre's you only get a small fraction of the market share.

Honestly, dude said he needed to get off that doped out abstract music which I think he did prior to his huge rise. His hits are wayyyy more pop than anything he was dropping back then. His early fans still want a house of balloons weeknd not a blinding lights Abel :yeshrug:
