I think if an album is truly great, you’ll keep playing it occasionally. Kendrick hasn’t had that since DAMN for me

i have internal debates about this alot and ultimately feel it's just not true

like you can have music and sounds that you stim on frequently and recently because you like hearing those sounds more in the current, while some other sounds you like yet get played less because you look at that body of work differently

i think kendrick has made some of the best albums to grace rap but i dont listen to them nearly as much because i like keeping those sounds fresh in my mind and not play them to death

i think it's this music version of "if you were stranded on an island with one food to eat forever, what food would you never get tired of" idea
like it's impossible--you'd eventually you'd get tired of the food

i played damn to hell and back and now DNA doesnt hit really the same anymore

drake is the same to a lesser extent--i dont listen to if youre reading this or take care very often and they're my favorites of his, because I dont want the songs to sound stale

listened to no tellin over the weekend after iceman and that s*** hit like crack

I’m not saying you have to endlessly play it. I’m saying you gotta come back to it in some scope. I haven’t come back to anything from GNX or Morale in years because they’re boring. Not a single song mattered to me or moved me.

Do you actually believe that The Weeknd has been displaying as much versatility on his latest albums as Drake did in the three albums he just dropped?

That album came out 9 months ago.

GNX has been out twice as long.

BigX is at #87, GNX is at #89.

The sales difference is probably like literally 25 units

Feel free to look up all the pages and verify for yourself how wrong you are.

I know there are intense stans in all fandoms but its pretty obvious kbots got nothing to do itt and they just keep going and going.

Even if other drake stans were acting sus in the past, “revenge” its equally sus.

to me then that's a different problem

that sounds like sonics--like the production and kendrick's prescence on the albums didnt vibe with you or something, which is crazy with songs like united in grief, count me out, wacced out murals, luther--crazy ass songs

i do think kendrick's ear for production is a little ass sometimes and he carries the production across the finish line a lot

currently im stimming the iceman production a lot but drake really isn't doing a whole lot for me on it, but im coming back to the songs so mission accomplished i guess

This one guy goes out of his way to point out how HUT is a flop meanwhile Weeknd fans stopped talking about that s*** 6 months ago

It's really saddening that kronic has to make use of ableist language when reality stops suiting his narratives..

Yes, confirmed it in several other threads. Which is why Fader stopped posting & he’s on his other account again.

Never forget @mangotflu has had a personal grudge against The Weeknd ever since he made that thread saying him going on a stadium tour would flop, and then it became one of the highest-grossing tours of all-time

my personal grudge started ever since he started only making s***ty forgettable white girl music

i'll always take pre 2019 weeknd above any artist except pre 2016 drake

Myself and US audiences completely disagree sadly, Dawn FM/HUT are extremely forgettable for them. That's a fact. They voted with their ears. That style of music hasn't been popular in the US for decades
