I'm absolutely loving "House Of Balloons" at the moment. He's got a great voice, great lyrics and the production is absolutely top notch. If you're into Frank Ocean, you'll definitely like this.
Fuck I love The Weeknd, I first heard about him on Pitchfork. I think he's collaborating with Drake ATM.
I really like this album. I listened to it twice all the way through since it was released, I really have to listen to it more.
This particular song is sexy as all hell.
amazing stuff, such a dark and eerie atmosphere but the singing is so smooth.
dis shit right here

By far my favorite song by him.
Mega bump.
So he just dropped "Thursday".

Oh man I'm so hyped for this shit i'm DLing now.
Thursday's good, but nowhere near as good as House Of Balloons. but Drake's verse is amazing.

I loved it and for about 10 mins after thought it was his best but it isn't as varied as House of Baloons which is it's downfall.

Another mega bump.

Gonna listen to it tonight.
Needs to find a way to spotify..
Spotify is well past it's glory days.
I love how "The Host" is a part of "Initiation" in slowmo.
I think it was illangalo his producer that said echoes of silence is like house of balloons and thursday having a baby and he was right. I fucking love this mixtape.

Love this almost as much as House of Balloons
It's really uncanny this is free. Or the whole series. The albums are really cohesive for free stuff. Production is great as well. I wouldn't mind calling The Weeknd progressive R&B.
He's had a fucking amazing year. Putting out three albums, collabing with Drake and remixing Lady Gaga.

I feel like this quality music he's been releasing for free is just crazy. I wouldn't mind paying for all three mixtapes. Especially, compared to other artists who release shitty music at a price.
I'm addicted to the Weeknd, it just gets me in this weird mood. I love closing my eyes having my earphones in and listening to him. I can't do that with any other artist right now.

what okay
I bumped the shit outta The Weeknd today. Singing along and everything lol.
It sounds so wrong when I sing along, I tuen into James Blake.
The Weeknd's music fit in perfect for all the shit that happened last night.
Aye, are you guys listenin' to Frank Ocean? You better be.
Bump
