Do men fukk with this dude's more than women though? Seems like the guys relate more to his content, and women feel like his voice it a bit much. I wouldn't even say he has the voice to be a superstar. His voice and how he sings is an acquired taste in a lot of cases. It's like you can hardly understand what he's saying on some tracks.

I mess with his sound, but I can only listen to him in doses.

I agree....He's a solid guest spot cat (mainly because his voice is a nice change of pace from a baritone rap niqqa). Thats why him linking up with Drake was initially perfect, because we only heard him in doses, and he was sparing us from having to listen to Drake's off-key warbling. Weeknd as a featured, main artist? Fck naw. Cant listen to more than one song in a row of his, without wanting to Van Gogh my ears.

He'll be fine. He's making his own music and he will always have a fanbase because of that. Mainstream RnB is like the worst genre ever, thank God he's switching it up
:what: are you calling r&b the worst genre or the current mainstream r&b acts the worst?

R&B is only suffering due to music biz politics & the corporate bottom line

If the Weeknd was "a traditional R&B" artist, he wouldn't be the Weeknd.

There's already ton of traditional R&B out there, why do you want the same old shyt?

Nobody is doing the old shyt which is why the genre sucks right now for male vocalists.

Where you staying? If you are going to be in LA, gotta hit Malibu and Venice Beach. If you will be in San Diego, Gas Lamp district at night youll have so many drunken white girls around you won't even know what to do with yourself.

With your British accent you should be swimming in white girls.

Got fam in Corona...I think it's called. I get the feeling the area is suburban and you'll have to travel to get to the where the action is.

Why sign to Universal records which is the biggest label in the world if you don't want to be a star?


Because every artist needs money to do what they do; and if they are willing to give him creative freedom as it seems they have, then why not go with the one with the most to offer?

Yeah homey, Corona is in the Inland Empire out a ways from LA and Orange County. Like 35-45 minutes from the beach. You need to head over to the Orange County beaches since they are the closest, Newport Beach/Huntington Beach, thats where the white bytches are :laugh:

I didnt think about that. Theyll be tons of Latinas there too. Except its mainly Mexican and Central American girls. Very few PRs and Doms really. Youll be good tho, for sure.

Tell the fam you want to try In N Out Burger too, that's a California staple.

Corona is about 1.5/2 hrs from San Diego, you could try that too, get a room for a night of two or something.
