I think Drake met Kanye head on with Take Care, it just favors darker, moodier colors. I really came around to this, and it's definitely a large step up from Thursday. House of Balloons feels like a dumb-luck classic (in terms of its absolute beastly quality), even if the Weeknd overall are pretty superb across the three mixtapes.

Here come the 5s. Flash 'em loud and proud.
But for serious, if there's a 'classic' of 2011, it's this...or The Balloon Trilogy in general.

TBH I think dirty diana was done better by the weeknd. Maybe it's my huge boner for this dude, but I really enjoy the way he holds his notes longer than MJ does, and the fact that 80s cheese guitar solos aren't all over the place. Plus his seems like a way more emotional outpouring vs MJ's which is more or just a pop song.
Not to say MJ's isn't classic, and I know it was probably much more fitting for the time, but this version seems like a rendition of a classic that has been revised to better fit today's style, while making some small improvements here and there.

Why do you talk about Kanye West in a Weeknd review?

Because Kanye had the definitive hip hop release last year. And The Weeknd had the definitive R&B release this year. And hip hop and R&B are the same thing on sputnik.
D.D. isn't really that great. Abel sounds like he's singing it with no conviction. I get that for some of it, he's doing a more relaxed style, but there are times when he tries to get "passionate" and it doesn't work the same as MJ. Compare the "I'll be the freak you can taunt" part or the "she said he's not coming back because he's sleeping with me!" bit. It's so weak. No fire.
Montreal is the first track whenever I listen to this.

Don't really get how you can say the "because he's sleeping with me!" part is weak in the weeknd version. It's fucking huge.
