Why does that matter where did this even come from

Damn the afro+full beard look was hard

I would find it weird if he kills off the new character... Why not the AH Abel ?

More importantly why is he still killing himself

It's tradition
But I'm not sure it's killing off the character

Hopefully

Mainly in response to the posts speculating that he has covid + the Lamar stuff

He doesn't have COVID if he's out at an album celebration party.

He can also have separate opinions from people he knows.

Was really wishing this would be the signature look for this era

Wasn’t he saying he was wrapping up the visuals for the record and jumping into the HBO world, haircut could very well be for the show

I hope it will be a case of that this new look is like a younger version or if we are going the Matrix route that it's the real him

Was about to say that

didn't he die out on UIBO? lyrically, not visually

I miss the hair already

likely scenario

Absolutely.

This likely means he’s finished with the album

pretty much seems like he's filmed all the visuals he wanted for The Dawn and the new haircut solely for the hbo character.

kinda glad he's switching up his look for the show and distancing it from his regular weeknd persona.

afro + full beard was fire
or braids. this ain't it

Can't be all the visuals if it's a full body of work...
Can you imagine an era being two MW's and a short film ?

yeah, i don't see him abandoning this era so soon after saying this is the album HE ALWAYS wanted to make.
