The Weeknd
Is he legit and a true talent or the flavor of the month?

Re: The Weeknd
He was legit when many were listening to his indie records before this big mainstream album.
The Weeknd will be around for quite a while. His shit combines talent, edginess and a masterful pop sensibility.
That new album is really good.

He's cashing in on his 50 Shades popularity.

The Weeknd - Starboy
I think it's a brilliant song
A starboy is a womaniser and what it really means is the Weeknd is in love with the womanising lifestyle of a rock star (surprise surprise).
The man's vocal talent cannot be denied.

He cut his trademark hair.
Starboy sounds good but not a fan of the second song he did on SNL.

Daft Punk amps up the production. Good song made even better by Daft Punk.

Talented guy, but quite pretentious. He was on the Graham Norton Show last year as a musical guest. And all musical acts always join the other guests on the couch after they perform to talk for a minute. But not this guy. After his performance, Graham just applauded (along with his other guests and studio audience) and he waved him off. Then said "The Weeknd only communicates through the power of song. He doesn't chat." Explaining why he wouldn't be joining the others. Douche.

Maybe he is trying to be like Prince.

I fucking love the single "I Feel It Coming" with Daft Punk. Great song to close the album.
He sounds like Michael Jackson from the early 80s during a lot of this song.

"Often" though not on Starboy is a song you can't get out of your head.

I like a few of the songs on this album, but I don't think it's anywhere close to his record from 2015.
