![]() ![]() It’s definitely not the best song, but I’m not mad at it when it comes on. She lacks depth in her character, but she can’t seem to live any other life. The song basically talks about a girl that’s shallow and loves the glamorous lifestyle along with the spoils of money. This song has got that 80’s dance vibe to it which is cool. I hated this song when it was released as a single, but after hearing it within the album I feel that it works a whole lot better with the sequencing. “Bitches in my new spot crowdin’ up my space, had to check my safe check the dresser for my chains.”.Know it’s been a while now I’m mixing up the drink. As someone who enjoys a good party, this song hits home. The beat bounces, the lyrics feature a story and a theme that are catchy AF, and the switch up for the bridge brings that dark element that made us fall in love with the Weeknd’s sound. Party Monster just has so much going for it. ![]() Anyways, the bridge expresses his distrust for new women, and the vocals from Lana Del Bae Rey are potent. This shit is mad disrespectful yo, celebrities can get away with so much savagery smh. The hook proceeds to develop the dichotomous theme by the Weeknd giving thanks to the Lord for another day, but he wakes up realizing he’s slept beside a girl who’s name he can’t seem to recall. This dichotomous theme runs throughout the entire song, and as someone who lives in the balance between righteousness and ratchetness, this song emphasizes that belief. The Weeknd creates a dichotomy with those lyrics by stating that he’s about to pour up a drink, which is most likely to ease some pain. Research says that telling yourself “you’re good” or “you’re great” boosts your confidence by 87% (don’t quote me on that). To start off, the lyrics of the intro are spirited. There’s a lot of elements that go into making this track such an experience. The intro is eerily familiar to the hook of Dedication 5’s intro, which was also another one of my most played Weeknd songs, so it brought me back into that space. I hit that repeat button like a crack addict for 4 listens straight before moving onto the next song. ![]() I could barely get past this song on the first listen through. Hands down my most played song off the album. “You talkin’ bout me I don’t see no shade.” “Main bitch out of your league too ah, side bitch out of your league too ah.”Ģ. Props on the Weeknd’s team for getting him to collaborate with the iconic Daft Punk, I wouldn’t mind hearing a short EP of them together.ġ. The versatility of the song can fit many different moods and can be played on a variety of occasions. The Weeknd’s flow floats elegantly on the beat, and his easily digested braggadocious lyrics make for a seamless listen. The hook is super catchy and the drum loop and bass not only help to accentuate his vocals, but they stand out on their own which makes the song knock. However, this song was a perfect pick for his single. With that being said, let’s dive into the Starboy experience.īy now we’ve all heard this song played hundreds of time, so I won’t spend too much time on it. He states that Starboy is a character that embodies a flashy type of lifestyle. In the Zane Lowe interview, the Weeknd made note of the creation process for his album Starboy. It’s remarkable how much talent the Weeknd possesses. He’s had a lot of success from his last album, and Starboy appears to be another impressive body of work. With his incredible vocals and versatility however, the shift into the pop scene has been a great move for him in terms of achieving more recognition, whiles staying true to his sound. ![]() It’s apparent that he’s drifted away from his raw and dark style that was featured on his first 3 mixtapes, and has now moved into the pop scene. According to Abel, there was a lot of creative energy still left from his past project, which helped fuel this one. Starboy is the latest studio album from the Weeknd. ![]()
