Would you not say that his influence is on other songs on the album though?
I mean he was fw with his music enough to get him to work on the album, so it stands to say he obviously would have influenced other songs
Abel even said himself once that his sound was Drake's sound but darker. He was influenced by Drake so Drake really influencing himself.
yeah exactly
(although there were multiple Crew Love demos and one of them was pretty much finished)

HoB doesn't really sound like So Far Gone to me
but elements of Take Care sound like HoB

What you smoking? House of Balloons for sure has elements of that dark moody atmospheric R&B/Hip-Hop sound So Far Gone popularized. Some songs meant for House of Balloons was on Take Care so it's just easier to see that but So Far Gone for sure influenced House of Balloons. So Far Gone influenced a lot of Toronto's sound. A lot of the artists started sounding like it.

in my experience on here most Drake stans hate Abel and constantly bring him up
but most Weeknd stans still like Drake or just have no strong opinion on him either way
obviously theres exceptions on both sides, but that seems like the consensus
Just shutup man

No, it wasn't. The person who actually deserves the most credit for Take Care is 40, who PRODUCED most of the album, not The Weeknd who co-wrote one song and he gave a couple of hooks to Drake to use on other songs.
40 himself said it that people wrongfully give The Weeknd too much credit for Take Care and he was right.
I think the statement "Take Care wouldn't be the album it is without the weeknd" riles up so much unnecessary hurt inside people
its not a slight at Drake
It's not saying Abel wrote the whoel album
it's just the truth - If one of the biggest collaborators from an album was removed, it wouldn't be the same album
It is definitely a slight at Drake and you're stupid if you can't see that.
Drake's biggest collaborator on Take Care was 40, NOT the Weeknd. It's not even like Drake and the Weeknd sat in for several studio sessions crafting the sound of the album. No. Drake took some songs meant for HOB, used Abel's hooks on them and completely repurposed the final versions of the songs with 40's production so as to suit the overall production style of Take Care.

"One of"

KD always showing love
What does that have to do with what you said though
You said the original Crew Love demo was trash which im assuming you meant the XO / Crew Love one
And I said there was another demo that was already finished and sounds identical to how it does on TC
Not everything is a diss to Drake
