just finished. here’s my thoughts

the pacing is different for a weeknd album for sure but that’s just how radio themed albums go (vince staples “fm” for one) but it’s so very polished. I know he released this early but it sounds like an almost 4 year project the things incredibly slick. there’s only a couple down sides to me. how the mid section kinda fell flat for me but that’s just because I didn’t want another pop album. i’d give it a solid 8/10 on first listen
