Who Is Better Musically? Bruno Mars or Weeknd?

[Prince.Skeletor]

It's very hard...
I feel like Weeknd is heavily influenced by michael jackson and Bruno Mars by say 80's or 90's R&B.

Both are very good...
Who do you think is better?
And is there anyone else I should add to this list?

 

[StayOffMe]

It seems Tough at first thought but not really. I’d take Weeknd over Bruno.

Weeknd can do Bruno but Bruno can’t do Weeknd.
All my opinion btw.

 

[Killigraphy]

I haven't heard one bad song from either, however, the Weekend's catalog is deeper than Lana Rhoades a$$hole, he also has touched every sub-genre, from that 90's feel, to early 2000's....both have had tremendous Superbowl performances, but Abel takes it for funding it all on his own. Plus.....nothing beats this "Lost in Vegas" persona/album....

Weeknd can’t play the drums, keys, bass, or strings like Bruno. Can’t dance either

Hey, you’re right.
I’m high. Lol I was thinking about singing I wasn’t thinking about instruments!

My choice is still Weeknd.

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Bruno has paid homage to eras with songs the artist they were inspired by would have been happy to have in those times

 

[Human Torch]

I feel like Weeknd has more range in terms of sound but Bruno a bad boy too

 

[Westbama Heartthrob]

Both have their strengths. Bruno is the better performer, but I fukk with Abel's albums more. Kiss land feels very cinematic and tells a pretty complete story in my opinion. I like after hours because he's finally gone back to making concept albums with storylines. Bbtm and starboy had some good songs, but the lack of focus was disappointing.

is that sound or production?

 

[PL368Z]

The weeknd made the Trilogy so he automatically wins.

You’ve got to be really high if you think Weeknd is even in the same league as Bruno. Even if we consider vocals alone, Bruno would embarrass Abel.

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

Bruno makes more music I enjoy

I enjoy starboy vastly over The Weeknd’s other stuff, other stuff as in don’t care for it all

 

[humminbird]

I like starboy but Bruno actually uses instruments which is rare for modern popular artists so Bruno

 

[Real]

Bruno easily.

Better singer

Better performer

Better songwriter

 

[King P]

Definitely Bruno
