Translation: Something just as good that I don't have to feel guilt for liking because faceless internet people don't like him

>>70527738
his Trilogy was released when he still had indie cred

Partynextdoor

>his music is more honest than anything else out there

You realize the entire album down to the core concept was written by his ghost writers, right?

The Weeknd is literally a project

You're looking for Tyus

Try his song "City of the Rose"

>>70528129
What's honest about every song being about sex and drugs? I like his voice but his lyrics are shit.

very uninspired and randomly put together vocal melodies

>>70534466
they are not complex emotions but his delivery is what sells it. you can feel his frustration.

>>70534620
>he thinks OP is looking for vocals

You feel for the 90's R&B meme where you think vocals for PR&B matter more than production. If OP was asking for patrician singing, he's a dummy bc you're not gonna find that in PR&B except for Miguel. Alt R&B is focused on production, people love Trilogy bc of the production dawg. Tyus has that same spacey, drugged out, chill atmosphere to his production that Trilogy Abel had.

if you listen to the entire starboy album you will realize that there are more hooks in the verses than in the choruses. each and every melodic line of his singing is very deliberate.

miguel is literally random notes shit within a scale, zero phrasing of any sorts. he sounds like fucking drake sans autotune

>>70527738
Listen to trilogy or kiss land. The weeknd was an outstanding artist before he became a pop singer. Who can blame him though; he probably gets way more pussy now he's sold out

>>70527738
first of all, why are you asking for this?
third of all, i won't give you a music reccomendation
