Is São Paulo the Greatest Concert that we’ll never hear again?

I’ve been listening to The Weekend since 2009 and have seen him live but I think that the São Paulo show might be the greatest live show I’ve ever heard.

This movie made me have a new interpretation of the past two albums and his upcoming one

Just saw this movie for the first time today, and I guess you could call this a "Theory" but tbh just an interpretation of the two albums plus what we got for Hurry Up Tomorrow so far. (Spoilers for the movie Jacob's Ladder) Maybe Abel died very early into After Hours, during the Heartless music video and everything in between up until now and going forward are like in this movie him between heaven and hell and like the movie a lot of weird shit happens and eventually he'll let go and go to heaven. Hell the title card we have for the album reminds me of this poster a little. Just a thought.

Surprise drop is likely because of OVO/XO beef

Drake and PND are looking to drop their collab album soon. Knowing Drake and proclaiming himself the “petty king”, I’m sure he would love to drop around the same time as Abel to steal any thunder he can after everything that went down this summer. I’m guessing Abel will be making HUT a surprise drop without more than a day or two heads up so that the OVO camp doesn’t step on his toes. Considering this is his last album as “The Weeknd”, he wants to make sure its a much of a commercial sucess as he can

What’s the worst Weeknd song?

I saw a post comparing 2 weak songs from BBTM and Kiss Land (I don’t think either of them are bad) but it made me think, what do you guys genuinely think is his worst song. My pick would be a lonely night off Starboy because the leaked version is 100% better. It could even be a feature if you guys wanna consider that.

Im not a glazer but im really sure that Abel is hiding the best part of the album. Just look at the title video and hear that music with the lyrics of the poem. It gave me goosebumps. Remember that OPN is in this project too.

In heaven will be a classic

Whether it’s the title track or called in heaven everything is fine I think this song will be classically received once we see it on the album. I love the song but I gotta feeling I’ll love it even more on the album

I have a feeling the CD/Vinyl pre-order date (Nov. 22nd) doesn’t give us the time frame for the album.

Notice how it says “Ship by/Ships on”, from my knowledge, that means those items will leave the warehouse, or have enough ready, for it to be in transit. Pre-orders will possibly end after, or on the 22nd, and then those CDs / Vinyl records will then be accounted with how many were ordered before leaving the warehouse. And then there’s the chance of unexpected delays which could happen.

I doubt Abel would leak or accidentally give us the time frame for the album from pre orders, that date doesn’t guarantee that it’ll be in transit by the time that day strikes.

This discussion is just to encourage people to not give themselves the expected release date for the album, like we have done in the past.

Anyone else finding this sub exhausting right now?

It seems we are only getting posts about people complaining or people complaining about the complaining lately. It has become exhausting for me which sucks because this is my favorite sub. I almost want to silence it until the album comes out, but I am too weak to. Is anyone else exhausted by everything going on right now?
