Seismic neo-R&B rippers from the velvet-voiced crooner.
Switching up tempos like they’re cards in a deck, The Weeknd veers from big 80s choruses (with sparkly synths to boot) to darker & slower groovy rumbles complete with trapped out hi-hats on ‘After Hours’. This one is steeped in sticky hedonism and enough of a thin trickle of self awareness to anchor it to reality. FFO: Frank Ocean, Drake, Justin Bieber, How To Dress Well “This is the Weeknd at his most repentant and cliche, willing to give it all up just to hold her close.” - Pitchfork
