    It was that bad for you?

    I don't like maybe 80% of the Pop stuff. Last full album I enjoyed was Kissland

    Hm: Dawn FM but I'm not invested into the world he built so it doesn't really stick around. I can't believe the magic is gone

    You didn't like it? I thought it was cool. But I'm not a fan so I don't have a strong opinion

    Only song I liked was São Paulo. S*** got so boring I had to finish the album the next day. I can't call myself a fan either anymore

    How much did weeknds album do? Kinda wild when you put it in perspective like that. It’s obvious that it hasn’t made much of an impact but I didn’t really put together that drake was about to outdo it until this post

    Imo this is the huge story of the sales this week and the year in pop music so far in general tbh. That weeknd album went hugely wrong in terms of connecting with people.

    Think it was around 500K but it had been selling vinyls 8 months before release. Even started selling them before he revealed the date. ''vinyls will be shipped x weeks after release''

    What's worse is I'm stuck with a Weeknd girly because I "love" her

    Lowkey, I might embrace death next time it comes around

    Yah I rarely go back to 20+ song albums they usually have more misses than hits. I liked the first few songs through As Sao Paulo cause it felt cinematic to me but it fell off after to me. Probably won't revisit

    Tbh I can understand this. I find Weeknd a lil too self-absorbed with his songwriting but I do like HUT for the most part

    Those kind of tweets - often viral tweets - by these losers do have an affect among casuals and have often been the reason for the misinformation among people.

    I know yall think lies, misinformation, false narratives etc. are fun and jokes but the casuals who don't fact check and the gullible people eat it up and believe that's the truth and how the world is.

    Sure, it's music, who cares you could say. But that's the exact same thing that is happening in politics and other world issues. Stop promoting and enabling such behaviour

    This whole thread outside of the stan wars is posting stats without giving a f*** about context, so why does this one make you mad

    PARTYNEXTDOOR & Drake did 3k units less than HDD's final numbers and Sabrina Carpenter did 4k units lower.

    I am just informing people that this is a false narrative tweet. That's it. You should have no issue with that, yet you do. Bizarre
