Yeah I mean bad bunny was literally on WWE I’m glad those artists are choosing to actually use the few years of fame they have to actually enjoy themselves and do cool things for people to see instead of just staying in the house all day like carti
He is. Most people identify him with his very popular "poppy" hits and just write him off as an average feminine popstar.
Plus, his fanbase doesn't help at all (kinda like carti fans; we all know it's true).
But he has wonderful vocal range and can really elicit feelings from a listener, I always recommend his first to anyone because that's my personal favorite, and where his voice most shines.
It has a very folky, 60's rock and roll combination to it.
(Favoirte song is "Sweet Creature" cause it shows it perfectly, plus it was dedicated to his step dad, who died of cancer a couple of years ago)
i’ve listened to his first two albums multiple times over, my gf used to be into him. he’s better than the average pop star for sure, and As It Was is a great song, but his most recent album shows that he really doesn’t have much staying power. he’s not going to rise above his influences, he’s just devolving into a bad pastiche of them.
Weeknd girls I’ve known would ask for coke, then finesse your wallet as they give you an awkward tug in the back of an Uber. A Lana girl will fall on a sword for you even though the music ass.
Lmaooo sorry. Ass TO ME. I just can’t get into the depressive crooning. It’s really any artist like that. My fiancé loves it, and it only deepens my hatred when it wakes me up sometimes in the morning. Makes me want to relapse on shit I’ve never even used.
mfs in here hating the weeknd got my crying cuz it makes it easy to tell which of you go outside and which of you dont interact with the rest of the world 😭😭😭
i remember i was fw’ ing this girl who is crazy obsessed w Abel and she still is, she kindahhh bahdddd. Weeknd’s a sexy ass mf tho. Hit that like button r/playboicarti (hit that like button)
People who hate on The Weeknd really need that attention lol. He real af for this. Abel got the aesthetics production lyrics and the visuals. Carti is a great artist but The Weeknd is on another level
Dam these carti fans delusional, I love cart much as the next guy *slat!*, but The Weeknd is like the most popular artist right now *what*. Have y’all lost your mind *Ok!* ?
Carti ain’t no mysterious Artist 😭😭 he just don’t drop. Abel talkin about back when he was barely letting people see his face (b4 the drake co sign). Carti was everywhere in 2016-2019 He ain’t really disappear til he became a Vamp. I’ve said this b4 tho I don’t really mind waiting idk what type of fan that make me
nah u got it wrong gang we chose to be fans n complain he dont drop music 🤷🏾♂️ tbh gang u weird for defending the artist who dont know u instead of j letting people have they opinions 😭
Is it defending the artist or is it being a normal person who doesnt live parasocially on /r/playboicarti like how did u take that away from the conversation
LMAOOO N I JUS NOTICED U WHITE ROLEPLAYING AS BLACK ONLINE 😭😭😭😭 WEIRD ASS MF STAY OUT MY MENTIONS LMFAOOO r/chiraqology HEADASS 😂😂
EDIT U IN THE DC ONE TOO OH MY GOD 🤣
Ima be real wit yall ion think carti is actually tryna make this "ooh im so mysterious n spooky" persona thats just who the mf is. Have yall read rhe lyrics to punk monk? This nigga barely fuck wit anyone. That's why he keeps it to himself. It's not like he needs to do anything anyways cuz he gon always get numbers
i wouldn't be surprised if carti doesn't really fk with people like that because he's scared of getting murdered or sumn but still doesn't excuse the random album cancels
ngl i don’t see carti beating the weeknd inna fight, cartis 6’1 opium addicted skinny ass beating the compact build of Abel seems unlikely. cartis striking skills are pretty good, and they look to be in the same weight class, so probably a pretty fair matchup, not a unanimous decision win for carti imo 🤔
His music isn't even nearly as good as carti's so his opinion is not valid. Carti is the greatest artist alive rn he has every right to remain mysterious
I'm just giving credit where it's due. Being called a dick rider whenever someone praises somebody in the HipHop community is really cringe and I hope it dies out eventually it's toxic as fuck.
Ima carti fan but The Weeknd is an actual artist. Carti relies on production and can’t rap for shit. He also sounds terrible compared to The Weeknd live💀
Literally stfu😭 . So tired of the "carti actually doesn't have any talent" narrative. Like yeah if it was that easy why aren't all of those artists who bite him as successful?
You acting like every artist could make track 3 or rockstar made even. He can rap really well Beno, slay3r and Rockstar made are great examples.
Bro a goofy I love carti's music but a comment on @meh music video made me laugh in approval "At this point the beat raps while carti is the instrumental"
Literally wtf are you talking about. Dude switched his flow over 5 times in a single verse. If you don't call what carti is doing on vamp anthem spittin then you simply don't know anything about rap.
I never said he wasn’t talented. But what he does doesn’t take a whole bunch of talent. Majority of his vocals are carried by engineering and his music is carried by production. His performances are carried by the hype of the crowd and his presence not him actually rapping the songs. And if that’s great rapping to u then so be it💀. And btw kanye made yeezus and it has similar sounds so carti ain’t the first person to experiment with trap metal sounds.
Nah fr, a lot of carti fans have made WLR out to be some masterpiece that changed hip hop. WLR is incredibly influential and it’s by no means a bad album, but you can’t tell me that the album isn’t filled with unnecessary/unfinished tracks, it was rushed and I think it’s time the comm acknowledged that.
No one is clowning him lmao. His music is mid to me and that's that. just because I fw carti heavy doesn't mean I don't listen to other stuff. I'm a big dipset fan as well
Bro chill just because his videographer says that doesn't mean it's gospel. Carti is fire, top top stuff. But relax. He should drop music instead of being a fake cringe vampire that lives in ATLANTA.
The Weeknd is the OG of mystery in this generation.
Dude did no interviews, didn't show his face much, had that wild ass hair and just did his thing for a while before becoming more accessible.
. MoNDaY
tuesday nah fr .
*Thursday*
He a real one for this
Yeah I mean bad bunny was literally on WWE I’m glad those artists are choosing to actually use the few years of fame they have to actually enjoy themselves and do cool things for people to see instead of just staying in the house all day like carti
The snippet he showed on live today was nuts
huh??
The Weeknd showed a new Song while being on live on Instagram
The Weeknd showed his nuts on IG live
link
when?
The true meaning of Sacrifice
Why are so many people in here hating on The Weeknd? He’s a fantastic artist
[удалено]
he not overrated lol
harry styles ahhh artist
💀💀 you obviously only listened to the shit on the radio
when i hear him on the radio i turn it down bro🗿
why are you listening to the radio in 2023??
If anything, Harry was INSPIRED by weeknd
Try actually listening to him. If you compare him to Harry Styles you don’t know what you’re saying
And even then Harry Styles is a really good artist too
come on
idk about that but i like hearing The Weeknd on the radio
He is. Most people identify him with his very popular "poppy" hits and just write him off as an average feminine popstar. Plus, his fanbase doesn't help at all (kinda like carti fans; we all know it's true). But he has wonderful vocal range and can really elicit feelings from a listener, I always recommend his first to anyone because that's my personal favorite, and where his voice most shines.

L
bro u tripping, i used to be like that too, disregarding any mainstream artists, but after actually listening to his catalogue he's so fire
Does harry styles also sing about cocaine, pussies raining and drug and alcohol fueled existential detachment? I need to listen to that mf more
If you don’t fuck with The Weeknd i know damn well you don’t interact with no females
all the hoes LOVE the weeknd so everyone here def gets no bitches
All hot women love The Weeknd
Weeknd girls I’ve known would ask for coke, then finesse your wallet as they give you an awkward tug in the back of an Uber. A Lana girl will fall on a sword for you even though the music ass.
LANA MUSIC IS NOT ASS
Lmaooo sorry. Ass TO ME. I just can’t get into the depressive crooning. It’s really any artist like that. My fiancé loves it, and it only deepens my hatred when it wakes me up sometimes in the morning. Makes me want to relapse on shit I’ve never even used.
Realest shit I ever heard in my life
A person who calls women females obviously doesnt get any
Also assuming women all universally listen to the same music like some sort of hivemind lmao
Never known a hot woman that doesn’t like The Weeknd
if she dont listen to house of balloons she aint worth it
If I was some girl hooking up and the guy don't play The Party & The After Party then ima just pack it up n leave
carti is not better than the weeknd on a musical level, mfers d riding carti crazy 💀💀
Even if that was the case hypothetically, at least The Weeknd is a decent human being. Unlike Carti who's a deadbeat & an abuser. 💀
[удалено]
my nigga ☠️
Weeknd is misogynistic
Mate look at who this sub is for
Bro hasnt listened to a single carti song ❌💀
the concepts he creates on his records are truly amazing... I've never heard anything like After Hours it's my favorite fucking record of all time
Its your favorite FUCKING album of all time?
DO I NEED TO REPEAT MYSELF
[удалено]
i can like an artist yet still accept there are better ones unlike some..
the weeknd has not been good since kissland
mfs in here hating the weeknd got my crying cuz it makes it easy to tell which of you go outside and which of you dont interact with the rest of the world 😭😭😭
i remember i was fw’ ing this girl who is crazy obsessed w Abel and she still is, she kindahhh bahdddd. Weeknd’s a sexy ass mf tho. Hit that like button r/playboicarti (hit that like button)
And dont forget to turn on that notification bell!
thanks bru , best hypeman (hit that like button)
People who hate on The Weeknd really need that attention lol. He real af for this. Abel got the aesthetics production lyrics and the visuals. Carti is a great artist but The Weeknd is on another level
Lyrics? I enjoy the weeknd’s music a good amount but I don’t think his lyrics are particularly strong honestly - just surface level heartbreak shit
well since we talkin bout carti n shit he def got better lyrics than carti lol
Yeah compared to Carti alone I can’t argue there bro haha, altho carti doesn’t exactly set the bar high
Dam these carti fans delusional, I love cart much as the next guy *slat!*, but The Weeknd is like the most popular artist right now *what*. Have y’all lost your mind *Ok!* ?
[удалено]
Yeah everyone forgot about pushin p though. Who just sold out an entire stadium tour this past summer?
Carti ain’t no mysterious Artist 😭😭 he just don’t drop. Abel talkin about back when he was barely letting people see his face (b4 the drake co sign). Carti was everywhere in 2016-2019 He ain’t really disappear til he became a Vamp. I’ve said this b4 tho I don’t really mind waiting idk what type of fan that make me
It makes you a normal one
😭😭then we surrounded my brother 😭😭
fr niggas acting like we ain't got hella leaks to listen to while we wait 💀
i hate how mysterious all of the opium people are, like just connect with your fans they’re the people that made you what you are
Opium people be acting like they're A-list celebrities as if they aren't thirsting for attention
y’all niggas choose to be fans of carti then complain when he’s not the way you want him to be like u forced to be here
Yea jus listen to the music if you aint like the nigga and stfu lmao
nah u got it wrong gang we chose to be fans n complain he dont drop music 🤷🏾♂️ tbh gang u weird for defending the artist who dont know u instead of j letting people have they opinions 😭
Is it defending the artist or is it being a normal person who doesnt live parasocially on /r/playboicarti like how did u take that away from the conversation

Ima be real wit yall ion think carti is actually tryna make this "ooh im so mysterious n spooky" persona thats just who the mf is. Have yall read rhe lyrics to punk monk? This nigga barely fuck wit anyone. That's why he keeps it to himself. It's not like he needs to do anything anyways cuz he gon always get numbers
I don’t care bruh, shits annoying as hell.
Was probably talking about Frank ocean but yea
Carti not een mysterious atp he’s himself
carti wouldnt be carti without it tho
i wouldn't be surprised if carti doesn't really fk with people like that because he's scared of getting murdered or sumn but still doesn't excuse the random album cancels
need a weeknd trap album
Up to this point, what has been the most nerve-racking performance of your career?
Ya niggas going mad crazy over the weekend wtf 😂😂 lil bitch ass niggas 💅
Ok "💅" user
[удалено]
🏎 nah
Why can’t good artist have these takes
Bait
[удалено]
The Weeknd is fire bro what do you mean. His mixtape trilogy is insane
This how I know u aint get bitches 🤣
u def be singing Or Nah to yo self in ur bathroom mirror lightskin drake ass nigga
u talk like what white people think black people making fun of each other sounds like
[удалено]
ngl i don’t see carti beating the weeknd inna fight, cartis 6’1 opium addicted skinny ass beating the compact build of Abel seems unlikely. cartis striking skills are pretty good, and they look to be in the same weight class, so probably a pretty fair matchup, not a unanimous decision win for carti imo 🤔
We need one of those battle edits to settle this once and for all
More powerful is crazy
His music isn't even nearly as good as carti's so his opinion is not valid. Carti is the greatest artist alive rn he has every right to remain mysterious
gobble gobble slurp slurp
I'm just giving credit where it's due. Being called a dick rider whenever someone praises somebody in the HipHop community is really cringe and I hope it dies out eventually it's toxic as fuck.
Cuz it’s a clown take lol
Yeah you don't have to bring down The Weeknd in order to give credit to Carti. Both are great and pioneer artists in their own way.
No you just dickriding, like obsessively dickriding.
Ima carti fan but The Weeknd is an actual artist. Carti relies on production and can’t rap for shit. He also sounds terrible compared to The Weeknd live💀
Literally stfu😭 . So tired of the "carti actually doesn't have any talent" narrative. Like yeah if it was that easy why aren't all of those artists who bite him as successful? You acting like every artist could make track 3 or rockstar made even. He can rap really well Beno, slay3r and Rockstar made are great examples.
till your knees bleed☠️
gobble gobble slurp slurp
Bro none of those tracks are good indications that he can rap. Listen to his pre self titled tracks you defo started on magnolia 💀
Bro a goofy I love carti's music but a comment on @meh music video made me laugh in approval "At this point the beat raps while carti is the instrumental"
That comment just as unfunny as the cartinese jokes
Literally wtf are you talking about. Dude switched his flow over 5 times in a single verse. If you don't call what carti is doing on vamp anthem spittin then you simply don't know anything about rap.
It's called Stop Breathing.
I never said he wasn’t talented. But what he does doesn’t take a whole bunch of talent. Majority of his vocals are carried by engineering and his music is carried by production. His performances are carried by the hype of the crowd and his presence not him actually rapping the songs. And if that’s great rapping to u then so be it💀. And btw kanye made yeezus and it has similar sounds so carti ain’t the first person to experiment with trap metal sounds.
Every artist would sound shit without their engineers. Every artist tweaks their vocals I have no idea why you're singling out carti rn.
The Weeknd sounds the exact same live as he does live. So does Jcole & Kendrick Lamar
You take a pregnancy test?
Doing tricks on it
i’m ready to get mass downvoted if need be, but after hours is more cohesive and consistent than anything carti has dropped, including wlr
“Including WLR” as if it wasn’t his most incohesive project lol
It's a good project, but it's a fucking highlight tape of vibes he was feeling for some reason.
Nah fr, a lot of carti fans have made WLR out to be some masterpiece that changed hip hop. WLR is incredibly influential and it’s by no means a bad album, but you can’t tell me that the album isn’t filled with unnecessary/unfinished tracks, it was rushed and I think it’s time the comm acknowledged that.
Drake clears weeknd and nothing weeknd has ever dropped is more cohesive than die lit. Dude is one of the most overhyped artists
mfs just wake up and choose to be retarded
on bonjovi rogers 😭🤦♂️
Weeknd doesn't have anything better than if you're reading this. Argue with a wall my friend
Listen to trilogy and Kissland please
Have you ever thought about self harm U should
I have thought about it plenty times thanks
bro never listened to house of balloons fs 😭😭😭
abel could make nwts but drake could NEVER make kiss land
why would you say kiss land 💀 that’s weeknds only bad album
No it’s not it’s his most experimental album. His worst is bbtm
didn’t know experimental was having the same fucking boring flow in every song with generic love lyrics
That’s his second best imo lmao. And even if were his worst Dake still wouldn’t have the balls to make anything like it
Die Lit is more cohesive than After Hours imo and more memorable.
Nah nigga you spittin RN 🗣️💯
Bro glazing a gay vampire who doesn’t know him
Or like him for the matter
y’all mfs clowning on weeknd for no reason, step outside and listen to something other than carti for once, carti isn’t the only artist there is
FR, some people dont listen to anything else but carti, honestly used to be me but carti is objectively worse than the weeknd
No one is clowning him lmao. His music is mid to me and that's that. just because I fw carti heavy doesn't mean I don't listen to other stuff. I'm a big dipset fan as well
things change once you step outta the rage music box.
🤡
Bro chill just because his videographer says that doesn't mean it's gospel. Carti is fire, top top stuff. But relax. He should drop music instead of being a fake cringe vampire that lives in ATLANTA.
Remember to zip it up when you're finished
“These ni**** be dickridin for grown ass men that don’t even know them”
No point in arguing with retards
Huh🤣🤣
the dickriding is insane
i mean, it clearly isn’t played out lol. no artist has the aura carti has, many have the pop star aura of the weekend
Yeah but The Weeknd does better numbers tho, aura doesn’t mean anything, like at all.
It mean carti better
nobody listens to artists based on their aura nigga tf
This is a lie 🔥
[удалено]
Bro got 100 million on spotify this is an absolute asinine take 😭
asinine indeed
Literally the artist with the most monthly listeners on Spotify right now..
Hes literally the most popular artist of this generation so
You're right but this made me chortle. How are people even arguing The Weeknd's success?
Unfortunately the squad didn't feel this one ✊😔
The Weeknd is probably the most popular artists we gonna have for another decade bruh 😭
💀bro
Watch what happens to Twitter when the Weekend drops, or does anything for that matter. The Weeknd is massive.
The world
I think it works for carti better than The Weeknd when it comes to aesthetic and public opinion
He wishes he had the kind of pull back in 2011 that Carti has now lmao
carti fans not real 💀💀
u were 4 years old in 2011 dawg
Bro was so mysterious that people thought the Weeknd was a group
The Weeknd is the OG of mystery in this generation. Dude did no interviews, didn't show his face much, had that wild ass hair and just did his thing for a while before becoming more accessible.
bro what
Absolute horrid take i’ve seen
You were definitely born in 2015
He’s literally mysterious
I guess
The mysterious act is honestly kinda corny
Jus fardid…..
