  1. Might sound weird bc people told u to skip beuty behind the madness and starboy for times sake but solely based on POP BANGERS . Those might be his best 2 lol, just a bunch of pop hits and vibes maybe not as cohesive and experimental but simple bangers and some of his biggest in his discography. Idk weird feeling u might like those more than we thought

  2. Coming a long way to see you now embracing pop music from some of today's superstars. When Abel won the best soul/rnb album of the year for After Hours, he mentioned Prince as a huge inspiration not only for the album, but for his artistry as a whole, 5 years after Prince had presented Abel when he won the award previously. If you loved all the blends of classic sounds, style and theme of After Hours, exploring the elevating, powerful, synthy pop rock of Purple Rain will be way down your alley. Prince and Purple Rain are both timeless and up there with greats such as MJ, Nas, Bowie, the Beatles, and Kendrick. It does truly make me happy to see you enjoy After hours and the videos too, and can't wait to see you go through Dawn FM, which also has a specific order of videos iirc.

  3. As someone who prefer The Weeknd’s slow music more. I preferred the first half and the bonus tracks. I usually skip save your tears, blinding lights and in your eyes except heartless. I tend to skip all his mainstream hits I’m tired of them 😂

  4. I literally cannot express how happy I am that you love The Weeknd!! He's my favorite artist BY FAR and you're my favorite reviewer so it's just perfection.

    Something to keep in mind thematically for Dawn: The Weeknd dies in Until I Bleed Out; and Dawn FM is the radio station that is playing in the car while you sit in never ending traffic (purgatory).

    Cant wait for the reaction!!!

  5. Probably won’t get read, but just incase; please make sure when you’re listening to Dawn Fm you allow for the track transitions to play, they make the album have even more character to it!
